RED ALERT! Lt. Uhura Models Thigh-High Ballet Boots
Fetishwear blog Kinky Attire writes, “[Nichelle] Nichols sang for Duke Ellington and Lionel Hampton. But it is her inescapable destiny to be best remembered as Star Trek’s Lieutenant Uhura. At some point in her career she also helped to advertise thigh-high boots.” The Boot Fetishist adds, “I’m assuming she was commissioned for these pictures, most likely booked for a photoshoot to be used in this catalogue. I think these pictures were taken in the 1950’s, obviously prior to her Star Trek days. However she had been a singer in the famous Blue Angel Club in New York and my guess is the catalogue relates to a store in New York.” HOT. HOT. HOT. If only she were only wearing this Star Trek corset as well! Set phasers to stun, girl. RAWR.

I most certainly did not expect to see that today.
Thanks, Nadya!

I know 3 men with a deep fondness for Lt. Uhura. They are going to faint when they see this.

Go on, girl! I’m in the midst of the watching the original series with my husband (1st time for me, as I somehow missed it in reruns when I was a kid), and Uhura is just fabulous. I love the episode where they enter a parallel evil universe, and she pulls a knife on Sulu– she should’ve been wearing these!
