minus-squareFlying Squid@lemmy.worldOPMlinkfedilinkarrow-up83·1 year agoWe should also add that she used to be the star of a sitcom called The Nanny in the 90s and hasn’t been heard of much since, so it was a big surprise to a lot of people (me included) when it turned out she’s been really active behind the scenes.
