No William Shatner Cameo in New Star Trek

Posted by Emily Farris

William Shatner will not appear as Kirk, Spock or anyone in the new version of Star Trek, directed by J.J. Abrams. He's not happy with the decision, and neither are we. But we are reminded of this video that was circulated on the web about a year ago of Shatner performing Elton John's Rocket Man back in the 70's. And this makes us happy. Probably a little too happy.

I think that it's not possible to fully appreciate this clip unless you've seen Stewie's version of it on "Family Guy": www.clipshack.com/Clip.aspx
