10 INSANE TV Cameos You've Never Seen
4. Abdullah II, King Of Jordan - Star Trek: Voyager
It's no secret that Star Trek has its fair share of celebrity fans, and apparently few more than Abdullah II, King of Jordan.
Back when here was merely Prince Abdullah, however, he managed to snag himself a blink-and-you'll-miss-it role on Star Trek: Voyager's second season episode "Investigations."
Near the start of the episode, he can be briefly seen playing an unspecified science officer speaking with Ensign Harry Kim (Garrett Wang), just as Neelix (Ethan Phillips) shows up to talk with Kim.
He blends perfectly into the scene and doesn't stand-out at all, making it all the more fascinating that future royalty is just taking a total nothing role in a random Star Trek episode.
Then again, given that he would've needed to have SAG membership for a speaking part, it absolutely makes sense that his character keeps shtum.
Abdullah apparently bonded enough with cast members Ethan Phillips and Robert Picardo that he ended up inviting them to visit him in Jordan, where he arranged a tour of the country's historical monuments and a small Star Trek convention.
Evidently, royalty has its perks.
