Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise is one of the all-time great characters of American television. Kirk was a commanding and courageous man's man who had a knack for wooing interstellar babes no matter what galaxy he warped through. William Shatner will forever be known for his role as Kirk, even though the actor's varied career went well beyond those three seasons helming the Enterprise (who could forget his stint as T.J. Hooker?). The star of Boston Legal recently took a break from his breakneck schedule, which included putting out a new pop album, Has Been, to show some love to Playboy.com. Shatner opened up his Captain's Log and gave us the dirt on everything from alien sex to making out to his own music.
1. Who do you think is the sexiest alien babe of all time?
William Shatner: There was a beautiful manipulative rock on the moon that I saw when I was there. This alien was extraordinary. She multi-tasked.
2. So you have had sex with an alien?
WS: On the moon.
3. Who is better in bed, Captain Kirk or T.J. Hooker?
WS: One is a giver and the other is a taker. So it works beautifully.
4. If a night in bed with William Shatner went up on Priceline.com, how much would it go for?
WS: [It wouldn't, because] there is no discount there.
5. You have a new album coming out. Is William Shatner's music good make-out music?
WS: I think you should give the record to the person you wish to make out with as part of the exchange.
6. Who gets laid more, Star Trek fans or Lord of the Rings fans?
WS: Well, the Lord of the Rings was named because of that ring, and wearing that ring makes it very difficult.
7. Have you ever been approached to appear in a porn film?
WS: No, I haven't, and it's been a bitter blow to my ego.
8. At its height, was the Star Trek groupie scene pretty intense?
WS: Yes, but they talked a lot.
9. In a sexual sense, has William Shatner gone boldly where no man has gone before?
WS: I don't know about boldly. With some trepidation, I have gone where few people have gone before.
10. Have you ever been called Kirk in bed?
WS: I thought she said "twerp."
11. Do you prefer your Tribbles furry or shaved?
WS: Heart shaped.
12. What's your best pick-up line?
WS: My best pick-up line is, "What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?" It's fresh, it's unique and nobody has used it before.
