Jeri Ryan Increases Her Collective March 3, 2008

by Anthony Pascale , Filed under: CelebWatch, VOY , trackback

On Sunday Jeri Ryan, Voyager’s Seven of Nine, welcomed Gisele into the collective, her first child with restaurateur hubby Christophe Emé. A rep for Jeri tells People Magazine “Both parents are thrilled, Jeri is resting comfortably, and Christophe is playing the part of proud new papa quite well.” Gisele Emé weighs in at 7 pounds, 13 ounces and is Ryan’s second child, joining Alex (13), from her first marriage. Congrats Jeri!

 

In the fall of last year, Ryan told Plum (a magazine for moms-to-be) how Alex took the news he wasn’t going to be an only child anymore:

He has been asking for a brother or sister for years. But I wasn’t thinking of how big of a big brother Alex would be at this point. I was thinking more about the fact that this was a new marriage and not wanting him to feel left out.

But the age difference hit home when I told him I was pregnant. His immediate reaction was, ‘You mean you’re having sex already?!’ Then I remembered that when I was 13, my best friend’s mom got pregnant and we were mortified.

hot look. just kidding

2. James Jamziz - March 3, 2008

I take that back. Still hot

3. James Heaney - Wowbagger - March 3, 2008

Oh, Tony’s going to kill me for that one…

I don’t know why I click on these links, since I honestly don’t care about celebrities, but maybe I just need a Trek news fix. In any case, congratulations to the Jeri Ryan family!

[Insert clever Borg joke here]

4. Charles Trotter - March 3, 2008

Congrats, Jeri! Oh, and happy belated birthday, as well. :)

5. Harry Ballz - March 3, 2008

Jeri Ryan is just one of those gorgeous women where you go…..m’yeah,sweet!

6. Denise de Arman - March 3, 2008

Jeri was the sexiest Borg in all the Collective and one of only 2 or 3 things I ever liked about Voyager.

7. Paul Fitz - March 3, 2008

Congrats to Jeri, Christophe, Alex and Gisele, hope baby and mum are healthy and happy.

8. Harry Ballz - March 3, 2008

Hmmmm……….many years from now, when Jeri may be forced to push her breasts together in a low cut dress in order to look her best, will she refer to it as having to “join the collective”?

9. Papa Jim - March 3, 2008

Congratulations Jeri!!!

10. John - March 3, 2008

Congrats, Jeri!! You’re fantastic!!

11. Fleet Captain Kor'Tar - March 3, 2008

Congrats Jeri! :D

12. Sebi - March 4, 2008

Congrats Jeri!

She is 4 of 4 now…. I think you called Christophe that “resistance is definetly futile…”

13. Reliant - March 4, 2008

Best wishes Jeri!! :D

14. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

Is it me or is Jeri Ryan yummier now at 40 than when she was on VOY?

15. Danny - March 4, 2008

Nice headline!

16. EM - March 4, 2008

#1 - Why would you say just kidding? Can’t pregnant women be hot. Jeri cerainly is here in the photo.

17. Captain Power - March 4, 2008

- The woman who saved a whole trek show…!!!

18. As Far As Larry - March 4, 2008

You can still catch her on Shark opposite James Woods, assuming it didn’t get obliterated because of the strike :(

I always thought Jeri elevated the 7 roll well above and beyond (SAaB…another good show that got canceled…sigh) the simplistic desire of Rick Berman’s. My sister, who is very protective of what her children watch (mostly from a ‘This Film Is Not Yet Rated’ perspective - the whole MPAA has it backwards and too much of the wrong kind of violence is bad, and sex in and of itself is fine, so long as it’s not degrading or sexist…but I digress), will let her 10 year old watch Voyager and kinda likes that character, and that’s saying a lot :)

Well at any rate, grats.

19. richpit - March 4, 2008

whoa…she is still totally hot. Honestly, she’s hotter just as Jeri then she was as 7-of-9, IMO.

20. Daoud - March 4, 2008

If ever another *TNG* movie is made…. TPTB would be FOOLS not to have Jeri Ryan prominently involved in it.

21. Spiked Canon - March 4, 2008

Because of her…we have Obama….but she’s still hot

22. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Jeri, you will change diapers. Resistance is futile. (And stinky.)

Congrats.

23. thomoz - March 4, 2008

” 20. Spiked Canon - March 4, 2008

Because of her…we have Obama….but she’s still hot”

????????

What does she have to do w/ our pending 44th President?
He’s already married, and she’s not old enough to be HIS mother!

24. TrekkyStar - March 4, 2008

My favorite character in VOY was the Doctor.

25. Ghosty714 - March 4, 2008

I liked her character in ST, but I could care less about her having a baby.

26. Andy Patterson - March 4, 2008

Mmmm, Jeri.

27. crazydaystrom - March 4, 2008

She reminds me of an ex… :-(

28. Morn Speaks - March 4, 2008

I’m happy everything is going well for her. I met her at her first convention when I was 18 and she was so nice and outgoing to me and my friends. Which unfortunately you don’t always get from these appearences.

29. Beez - March 4, 2008

#22 thomoz,

#20 is right (well, at least right about Ryan & Obama).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Ryan_(Senate_candidate)

30. Morn Speaks - March 4, 2008

#22 thomoz Jeri Ryan does have an indirect influence to Obama’s success. I think you can read about it in the archives or google it, but basically her ex Jack Ryan was up for a senate seat up in Illinois; yet, there were allegations from the divorce stating amongst other things he wante to go to sex clubs and all sorts of things. He dropped out of the race he was likely to win; thus, leaving a spot open for Obama. Obviously he won the senate seat, and is continuing his success.

I hope this does not constitute a “political” post.

31. Irish Terran - March 4, 2008

Harry Ballz (#8) you have a strange mind!!!!!!!!

32. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Spiked Canon —
It’s not so much what Jeri Ryan did, rather than what Jack Ryan did to her, that help Barack Obama get his chance. If you’re cheesed at anyone for that, talk to Jack.

33. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Thank you, Irish Terran, that’s a great compliment!

strange=different=unique=special

34. British Naval Dude - March 4, 2008

#32
what Jack Ryan did to her:
had Irish Republican terrorists attack her on the highway, almost involved US in nuclear sub war, almost blew her up when Baltimore got nuked…
I’d dump tha guy too.

(OK- that be bad to joke about a real guy who behaved real bad)

arrrrr…

35. Irish Trekki - March 4, 2008

#33
But at the end of the day Harry it still means you’ve got a strange mind.

36. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Harry can’t help himself ever since the transporter accident.

(I like Harry. I’m his evil twin.)

37. Irish Trekki - March 4, 2008

#36
So you admit he has a strange mind!

38. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

I find it strange that we’re discussing my strange mind!

(after transporter accident) “I’m Harry Ballz………….I’M HARRY BALLZ!!!”

39. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

stranger in a strange land, indeed

40. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Nothing could be stranger
Than being born in a manger
Doing all those good deeds
Laying out different creeds
With that there’s no danger!

41. British Naval Dude - March 4, 2008

arrrr…
well she most assuredly looks better than Trip did when he was with child…

speakin’ of little borgs, whatever happened ta the borg babies of Voyager? When news gets slow as a squid in the sand, we could fire up a whole investigation o’ them there whereabouts… harrrr….

42. TerPor - March 4, 2008

Jeri Ryan was great on Voyager and it would be great to see Ryan again in Star Trek :)

43. Josh - March 4, 2008

“The collective must grow.” And it did! I remember when one of my friends had a baby… great times…

Jeri, congrats!

44. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

I think Jery Ryan is a tad flat chested for my taste. Hopefully motherhood has remedied this ; )

45. Irish Terran - March 4, 2008

Harry Ballz.
What a name!
I see you can Rhyme….. Or rap………. Or something like that…………………
Oh great now I’ve forgotten what I was going to say!!!!!!!!!!!

46. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Let’s get back to discussing Jeri Ryan’s two best assets…..I like to keep abreast of these things!

47. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

OK, I’ve waited several minutes to see whether Anthony was going to delete Harry’s #46 comment. Since it’s still there…

Anthony, we need a poll:

Better floatation device? Data or 7 of 9?

Best Borg headlights? 7 of 9 or Borg Queen?

and one for the ladies…

Better in a toga, Kirk or Riker?

48. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Hey, if Jeri Ryan was a singer, I could look at her voice for hours!

CmdrR….as to your poll……..the ladies should keep in mind the age of Kirk and Riker….when these guys were younger, I would assume the women would pick Kirk….if it’s now, with both men being old, fat and grey………never mind the toga, get these guys a matching pair of moo-moo’s!!!

49. Irish Trekki - March 4, 2008

#47
7 of 9,
7 of 9
and even though no 3 doesn’t concerne her
7 of 9

50. Flint - March 4, 2008

I heard her that original name on the show was to be 36 of D.

51. Flint - March 4, 2008

I heard that her original name on the show was to be 36 of D.

see grammar correction

52. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Flint, you’re telling me….she could provide shade for a small child!

53. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Careful, Harry, or 7 of 9 will give you a nano-probe where the sun don’t shine.

54. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Thinking about her makes me feel like a boob!

55. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Only one?

56. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

I’m not greedy…….besides, it’s always good to keep one as a spare!

57. Daoud - March 4, 2008

#23: You didn’t know Jeri Ryan’s responsible for us having Barack Obama? Read up, man.

For those who aren’t in the know… when he ran in ‘04 for the Illinois Senate seat, the Republican candidate originally was Jeri’s first husband. Yes, the *real* Jack Ryan, not the Clancy character.

And then his sealed divorce papers came out, which included allegations of Ryan pushing Jeri into going to places to create sex scenes, orgies, whatever.

So, he had to pull out about 3 months before the election. Alan Keyes stepped in, and essentially had no chance at all, but did guarantee that whether Keyes or Obama won, there’d be a black senator from Illinois.

So, if Jeri hadn’t divorced Jack, his dirty little secret would never have come out, and Jack very likely would have gotten the Senate seat in a squeaker.

So, that’s how 7 of 9 set the stage for Obama.

58. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

57 –

Again, how in the heck is that Jeri Ryan’s doing?
I don’t care what you think of Obama. If a man forces his wife into stuff that’s lightyears out of her comfort zone then he deserves some instant karma. Especially, if that idiot is in the public spotlight. Personally, I’m glad Jeri Ryan seems to have found a stable family life and a nice measure of happiness.
Jack Ryan (politician) can rot in… well, you know.

59. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

Jeri Ryan was the inspiration for the ‘Got Milk?’ ads.

60. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Jeri’s hubby offered strange sex
With that she made him her ex
The divorce papers came out
Making it clear he’s a big lout
Now gone, he can no longer vex!

61. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

#59

Funny, I heard a floatation device company was courting her to be their spokesperson!

62. Shatner_Fan_2000 - March 4, 2008

#38 “(after transporter accident) “I’m Harry Ballz………….I’M HARRY BALLZ!!!”

Well, Harry, I can definitely see you behaving in a manner similar to Kirk’s transporter clone. He certainly had a way with the ladies!

63. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

Why would anyone want to go to a sex club when they’re already married to Jeri Ryan????

64. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

#62 Hey, what the……..”I think we’ve just been insulted!”

#63 Uh, because they’re a ditch-pig?

65. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Indeed, Jeri is a jewel.

(mon dieu, that’s a long addy)

66. Denise de Arman - March 4, 2008

CmdrR#47- Kirk or Riker? No contest - Riker couldn’t even qualify to be in the same wet-toga contest as Kirk.

The Boston Legal ep with Jeri Ryan was funny - Denny drooling all over her because she shot someone:
Alan: It’s not just because she’s beautiful. It’s the gun thing, isn’t it?

67. Redjac - March 4, 2008

Heh, whoever put her in that condition is one lucky mo-fo!!!

68. Lukas - March 4, 2008

I’d still tap her ;)

69. Lukas - March 4, 2008

MILF!!!!

70. Garovorkin - March 4, 2008

Seven of Nine, one of the few good reasons to watch Voyager. Jeri Ryan is both a beautiful and talented actress. She is also one of the only likable characters in the Television legal drama Shark.

71. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

#70: “Seven of Nine, one of the few good reasons to watch Voyager. Jeri Ryan is both a beautiful and talented actress”

Ryan is without question beautiful, but calling her talented is pushing it. Her sole talent is fitting into spandex body suits.

72. Garovorkin - March 4, 2008

#71 Moogie thats being a little bit to dismissive of her, she can act and yes she is quite good.

73. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

What an actress! All I can say is that she manages to keep MY attention…..

……or is that keep it AT attention?

74. CmdrR - March 4, 2008

Jeri Ryan’s King Lear set a new standard not seen on the royal stage since Sir Larry.

Oh come on. She’s an OK actress. This was supposed to be about congratulating her on having a new daughter. I guess lust was inevitable, but this argument over Jeri’s thespianism (just wanted to see Harry’s eyeballs bug out) is a bit much.

Anyway, congrats, Jeri!

75. Pr011 - March 4, 2008

#73

Harry…

just no.

76. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

just no what?

just no way her chest could be more distracting?

You got that right!

77. I Love My Moogie - March 4, 2008

Jeri’s acting is on par with shadow puppets, but then, no actress can cast a shadow like she can!

78. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Yeah and look at those puppets!!

79. Katie G. - March 4, 2008

Harry… nevermind. [Sigh.]

Moogie, are you serious? How can you say that? What about her acting has given you that impression?

(Oops - - I’m not mad at you - - just surprised. Sorry if it sounded like a challenge.)

I thought she played the part of a human freed from the Collective quite well. It probably was the PTB that made her wear the stupid suit. They knew exactly what they were doing. Can’t say I’d object if I were in her place. What an opportunity (to become part of Trek lore) albeit in a spandex jumpsuit. Guess they couldn’t have given her a Starfleet uniform at the beginning because (as Picard said to Q once) you have to earn the privilege to wear it.

Even though I’m a little jealous, I thought she did an excellent job and love most of the episodes she’s in. (Don’t like all the stories, but thought she did well regardless.)

kg

80. Harry Ballz - March 4, 2008

Katie

in all seriousness, Ryan is a reasonably good actress….I’ve seen most of her work and, hey, you could do worse!

High praise, eh?

81. I Love My Moogie - March 5, 2008

Katie, Well, Jeri Ryan is a better actress than Justine Bateman, I’ll give you that.

Dressing 7 of 9 like Catwoman was the only smart move Rick Berman ever made. Had my purrrrrrrrrrrr of approval.

82. Harry Ballz - March 5, 2008

purrr-fect!

83. Garovorkin - March 5, 2008

So would Voyager been worth watching without Jeri Ryan?

84. British Naval Dude - March 5, 2008

so, in a way, the whole point of Voyager was to save her butt as in tha finale, Janeway says “screw all ye” who had died under her Delta command EXCEPT fur 7 and Cha-ko-tay…. OK- thar be more to that…

I keep thinkin’ of another 7… from Grizzly Adams… I can still hear Mr. Denver Pyle yelling out to his pack animal: “Seven!”
Much like our featured star here, Mr. Pyle had his own nice ass as well.

Hey- tha front had been covered already! So, like any good tactician, I started on tha rear…

85. I Love My Moogie - March 5, 2008

#83. “So would Voyager been worth watching without Jeri Ryan?”

Kes was kinda cute (especially with the long hair) so she was reason to tune in, but then she got fat & all fantasies of a Seven/Kes slumber party were destroyed!

I also give Rick Berman credit for also putting T’Pol in a cat suit, just wish he made Hoshi wear a bikini on the bridge.

86. Katie G. - March 5, 2008

Re: #81. Moogie

Wow - - such high praise. I give up. Maybe if I put on some Spandex… nah. Greenpeace may try to rescue me. Where’s Vulcanista when I need her? See you guys on another (more serious) thread.

kg

87. Harry Ballz - March 5, 2008

Katie

Vulcanista would be glad to help you, but she’s enjoying herself in Cancun……wearing…………wait for it……………..a bikini!!

88. Garovorkin - March 5, 2008

# 86 well this thread has gotten a bit silly, but it was either this or do you think Chase Masterson make really cool orion slave girl?. Getting back to Jeri Ryan, to be able to play an character like Seven of Nine with here conflicts and quirks requires acting talent. She done a few other roles, She playe a Sentinel Baddie on the series Sentinel,Had major role in Dark Skies, Boston Public. She is very good .

89. British Naval Dude - March 5, 2008

ack… what a day fur news…
I started a St Patty’s ditty on the Fan Film thread… Chasin’ Chase in tha Company of Colm…

need me a hobby… or a hobbit… make him do me typin’…

90. I Love My Moogie - March 5, 2008

Katie, Who said I was a guy???

Garovorkin, IMHO Jeri’s acting was one-note on VOY. She was basically a Spock clone dealing with both her emotional/non-emotional halves, which she did poorly but no one cared with her looking so yummy. Seven was the worst SciFi acting since Valerie Bertinelli in CHOMPS. Plus, this is a Jeri Ryan thread so how can you not expect it to be focusing on her looks?

91. CmdrR - March 5, 2008

At least Jeri Ryan was a better actress than a would-be Vulcan, T’Pathetic.

One-note is a correct assessment of Many of the actors who have taken on Vulcan and other detatched non-human roles in Trek. Leonard Nimoy set the gold standard. Not only is he more than just emotionless (and bored) but he allows the audience to see past the facade into the very real feelings his character works so hard to hide. There are nuances there. Mark Lenard (sp?) did a great job as well.
Not so with most other performances. The actors look bored. Just bored. And bored is boring to watch. One of these performances was a key component in Enterprise’s failure.

IMHO, of course.

92. Spiked Canon - March 5, 2008

#32 and #57

I wasn’t there, but Jeri Ryan was and didn’t seem to object…..well until they were in a Divorce fight.

I stand by my statement

93. British Naval Dude - March 5, 2008

arrrr…
think I’ve gotten unto animorphic sex… The Enterprise is a lady and I love her…

arrr… maybe not…

Suffice ta say, 7 of 9 has become a Star Trek symbol… and while Dracula 2000 didn’t help Miss Ryan much… she’s still at it. Don’t see much of her female co-stars (least not in front o’ tha camera) like Torres, Mrs. Columbo, Kes, Chakotay and so on…

arrrrr….

94. Katie G. - March 5, 2008

Re: #87 Harry

Okay, don’t rub it in. I know she’s in Cancun while we’re sloshing and shovelling. She said I could come with her but my husband can’t get away (and I thought 5 was a crowd). Hope the weather is sunny for her.

Re: #90. Moogie

“Katie, Who said I was a guy???”

Okay - - first, I would address a mixed crowd that way anyway. Second, the ‘yummy-type’ comments had me assuming you were a guy. Won’t be the first time being wrong if I am. Sorry!

Re: #91. CmdrR

Nimoy was definitely the one to model a Vulcan after. Mark Lenard wasn’t bad either. However, I did think that Tim Russ made a good Vulcan. The way his character reacted to the Neelix character was, well, typically Vulcan IMO. Actually, until they made Neelix less aggravating, I found myself having the same reaction as Tuvok. Guess we all have different taste and opinions.

Back to work…
