  • Trivia
    Sang a sad, yet touching song in the 1985-1986 Saturday Night Live (1975) season finale entitled, "I Played The Maid," which was a twist on Barry Manilow's "I Write The Songs." The song was her farewell to Saturday Night Live (1975) fans, and also showed her frustration for being typecast.
