http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/04/08/star-treks-kate-mulgrew-on-geocentrist-film-i-was-a-voice-for-hire-and-a-misinformed-one/Star Trek: Voyager and Orange Is The New Black star Kate Mulgrew released a statement online on Tuesday saying she was misled about her participation in the geocentric film The Principle.
I am not a geocentrist, nor am I in any way a proponent of geocentrism, Mulgrew said in her statement. More importantly, I do not subscribe to anything Robert Sungenis has written regarding science and history and, had I known of his involvement, would most certainly have avoided this documentary. I was a voice for hire, and a misinformed one, at that.
Sungenis film, which argues that the sun revolves around the Earth, was scheduled to be released this spring. As The Raw Story has previously reported, the filmmaker is also behind the blog Galileo Was Wrong.
Mulgrew also said in her statement that she supported physicist Lawrence Krauss allegation that he was also misrepresented in the film. I apologize for any confusion that my voice on this trailer may have caused, her statement read.

No, just kidding. I like Kate Mulgrew and I believe her explanation.

Big fan of Ms. Mulgrew, and annoyed that she was tricked.

She has really changed from her Voyager days. *shudder*
I didn't realize she was the angry woman in the Kitchen on "Orange is the New Black"
With the different hair and the much thicker face she looks totally different.

there is a part of almost everyone's work that gets auto piloted through without the conscience being much involved at all.
I bet if you do a lot of voice over work much of it becomes just mindlessly reading the content with all focus on tone and delivery.
