Carrie Fisher on "Today"

It's on the Today website:

Best line from Carrie was "I can't remember the 80's. I was in rehab for most of it."

 

She's great. Quick wit. Does look like she has man hands, tho.

On the set of Empire... (or maybe Return), the crew and castmates called her Crazy Lay-ah. *nudge, nudge*

 

Loud? Yep. Obnoxious? Not to me. Large? Eh, I've seen larger. Thought that was an interesting six minutes with an interesting woman.

 

Guys, she's obviously had some awful face work done.

But the constricted way she talked ... some kind of illness?

 

This was her at George Lucas' AFI Tribute in 2003: link (And don't ask me why...but for some reason, my YouTube thinks I'm in Italy, hence the it before the YouTube. And there's like, Portuguese closed-captioning as well.)

Watch it. She's hilarious.

 

You missed the most important part.... [Jake drops Mystery Woman into the mud]

 

Just saw the clip.

This is great---Debbie Reynolds' reaction after finding out about Carrie dropping acid.

"She did what any mother would do. She phoned Cary Grant".

 

She had a pretty funny bit in the first Austin Powers as the group therapist too.

 

She does a ton of bit roles. She was a nun in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. She was in Wonderland too, as a Christian woman who takes in John Holmes' girlfriend.

 

Yeah, but when they cut to the shot of her at the end of the original Star Wars, when she was wearing that scoop-neck gown and handing out the medals ... well, it made me glad my wife has taken such good care of herself over the years.

 

She also does the voice of Peter Griffin's boss in "Family Guy".
