"Joyce was on Star Trek -- The Next Generation" |
From TV Guide Online: Race Winner's Secret Showbiz Past Revealed!
by Ileane Rudolph Joyce Agu Just minutes before the country watched Uchenna and Joyce Agu dash toward the winner's mat on The Amazing Race 7, Joyce told TV Guide that her doctor had kindly offered to do a free round of in-vitro fertilization for one last try at having a baby. "I was in tears when I heard," says the 44-year-old, who joined the show with her husband in hopes of winning enough money for the procedure. But if the IVF fails, the couple says they'll adopt, perhaps from the Soweto orphanage they visited during the race. "Those children were so lovely," she says.
The Houston sales manager also revealed that she was once an actress (Star Trek: The Next Generation, Silk Stalkings). So who did she play on TNG, which most of us agree was the best Trek series since the original?
Ensign Gates. Just like in the picture above, she spent several episodes silently seated at the Enterprise's controls, taking orders from Captain Picard (Patrick Stewart). There were a few happy exceptions, Joyce points out. "In one scene, I did tai chi with Worf (Michael Dorn) and in another, they asked me to a couple of lines when Data (Brent Spiner) thought they were out of context for him.
"It was cool trying to be an actress, but it was tough," says Joyce, who set aside her acting bug when she moved to Texas. Why didn't she tell Race's producers about her showbiz past? "I didn't want to be known as 'the actress' on the show." Let's hope she'll soon be known as "Mom."
Meanwhile, there's more on-camera fun in the works for Uchenna and Joyce, who will make a cameo appearance this month on CBS' longest-running soap, Guiding Light. For details, read Soaps News.

LAST EDITED ON 06-06-05 AT 06:35 PM (EST)OMH! I didn't realize it was her. I think the song "Star Trekin' Across the Universe" is very appropriate for Joyce. And here I was not minding that they were cancelling Enterprise because I never really thought of it as Trek. Her IMDB entry shows that she's actually been in quite a few things. http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0732776/ And yet she isn't as recognizable as Romber. 
Three is the perfect number.

Seems Joyce has been TV, or has been part of acting a lot more than you could imagine. Check her IMDB profile, and you'll see she has more than 20 things under her credit.It doesn't help Joyce's image when the application form specifically requires one to label if you have ever been on TV, and on what shows, if it has been publicly releashed, and when. Looks like Joyce didn't read the waiver carefully when it says to answer all the questions honestly, accurately to her knowledge and ability.

Has somebody actually seen Joyce's application? Do you know for a fact she did not list these things on her application? She merely said she did not make a big deal of it with the producers, she did not say she lied on the application. Smells to me like the grapes are still souring...isn't it time to move on folks??

10. "RE: Joyce was on Star Trek -- The Next Generation" |
LAST EDITED ON 06-12-05 AT 10:03 PM (EST)Being a devoted M*A*S*Hoholic I was surprised to see that show listed in Joyce's TVography. I searched through the link and didn't see here name listed in any of the credits. I have to wonder about the accruacy, since the finale of M*A*S*H was filmed 22 years ago (1983) -- and the credit gives 1972, which would have made her 12.

Joyce specifically said she didn't mention her acting to producers.As per article above:
Why didn't she tell Race's producers about her showbiz past? "I didn't want to be known as 'the actress' on the show." Plus, the title of the article: 'Joyce's secret showbiz past revealed'

>Gee, and we know the media never, ever, makes stuff up. Again, just because Joyce did not tell the producers about her acting does not mean she did not put it down on her application. Unless someone has actually seen the application and it clearly shows that she did not reveal it on the application, I don't think people should be throwing accusations around the way they are. That's all I'm saying...

Well, it is quite obvious the producers didn't know about it, or else Joyce wouldn't have said so. I didn't make up the quote, it was her who said it. It's not an accusation when she clearly said producers had no clue about it.

>It's not an accusation when

>no clue about it. I'm not trying to be argumentative here, I'm really not. But it is not "quite obvious" to me that the producers did not know about her past. Joyce said she did not tell them - she never said they did not know. We have no way of knowing whether they knew about it or not, nor do we have any way of knowing what Joyce put on her application or whether the producers even read the application. Maybe she did lie, but we should not assume that she did simply because she did not tell the producers about it. This is just one more example, though, of certain begrudgers not letting it go, and trying to somehow make Joyce out to be evil because she did not want to make a big deal out of her acting career. What would it have changed? What difference would it have made? Did it change the outcome of the race any? Probably not, so who cares. The race is over, the outcome will not change, so move on guys...store up all that begrudgery for the next time that your chosen team does not win.

I got the Star Trek episode off Netflix and watched it yesterday. She was "Ensign Gates", was on the bridge with Picard and Riker attempting unsucessfully to start up the ship. She did not appear in the credits and I do not think she actually spoke.Somewhat ironic for a TAR racer, the episode concerned some mechanical difficulties caused by parasites, and the ship could not get Picard to a banquet (he was trying to avoid anyway) on time.

Joyce said she did not tell them about it, so how on earth did the producers know about it. There's no way. The fact that Joyce just recently said that they didn't know means they really didn't know. That means she didn't tell them verbally or written it down anywhere because Joyce said they didn't know. The reason she gave was because she didn't want to be know as an actress. The definition of didn't know is: No prior knowledge, awareness of the fact beforehand. I'm just commenting on the situation. I don't care what team won. So what, Joyce is not perfect. She lied through omission of her acting experience. Lynn and Alex lied about their occupation. Liars are liars. There's no two ways about it.

It doesn't matter if the producers did or did not know about it. The point is Joyce never told them in the first place! That's like not putting your criminal record on the application form, but then the producers do a background check, and found out the person actually did have a criminal history. The person is guilty by omission of the info the same way.
