I’m not one to pay attention to celebrity gossip or feuds, but some items make me take notice. One such instance is the long-running feud between Star Trek alums William Shatner and George Takei, which was back in the headlines again this week after the 77-year-old Shatner posted a video on YouTube talking about how upset that he was not to be invited to Takei’s recent wedding to long-time partner Brad Altman last month.

I saw Shatner’s video, as well as Takei’s exclusive rebuttal on ET where he states that Shatner was invited, but never responded, but really didn’t think anything of it (watch both videos here below). I’ve read every Trek biography out there, so I know that at some point or another, each member of the original cast was angry with Shatner for what they perceived to be his hogging of screen time on the 1960s television series. Claims were that Shatner, who played Captain James T. Kirk on the scifi series, often fought for most of the close-up shots and dialogue, which took away scenes from the supporting actors, including Takei, who played Lt. Hikaru Sulu. Shatner even owned up to this in numerous autobiographies and over the course of 40 years, has made it a point to speak to every one of his co-stars about the situation (except maybe for James Doohan, who I think refused to speak to him).
