Carrie Fisher brought sparkle wherever she went, her daughter Billie Lourd said Thursday — even flinging glitter at Star Wars fans she met at conventions. So Lourd brought some with her to the unveiling of Fisher’s Hollywood Walk of Fame star, sprinkling some across it after the ceremony.
Fisher, best known as Princess Leia from the Star Wars series of movies, was given the honor on May 4, known as Star Wars Day for the date’s similarity to one of the series’ catch phrases, “may the Force be with you.”
Fisher also had memorable film roles in When Harry Met Sally and The Blues Brothers and was nominated for Emmys for a guest appearances on 30 Rock and Catastrophe and for her own one-woman show, Wishful Drinking. The latter was based on her book of the same name, one of several novels and memoirs she authored.
