* TokenWholesome: Varied. She did not like the sexy image ''Time'' tried to give her on the cover of its February 28, 1977 issue. She originally shot the cover for ''Simple Dreams'' in a mini-slip, though she didn't like how much skin was showing and redid it in a robe. The cover to ''Hasten Down the Wind'' did not seem to bother her though.
