I just watched the end of The Bandwagon on TCM. And noticed that when Cyd Charisse and Fred Astaire are singing the line in "That's Entertainment" that goes "It's the art that appeals to the heart!" and she puts her hand (presumably) where her heart is supposed to be? She doesn't put her hand on her chest, she puts it on her side.
Just about where a Vulcan's heart would be, no?  So now I want Hollywood RPF fic where Cyd Charisse, the glamorous, dignified, and reserved* Hollywood star is a Vulcan stranded on Earth.

*Her biggest role was reprising Greta Garbo's role in Silk Stockings, which was a remake of Ninotchka.  And another one of her big roles was in Singin' In the Rain, in which she was the mysterious brunette in the Broadway Melody sequence (you may remember her in a green dress dancing with Gene Kelly?)

Looking at those legs ( yes, I know, stockings!) I'd say an Orion with makeup up top to hide her non-human coloration! Do we know where the keep their</ i> hearts? ;)
