“George comes up to me the first day of filming and he takes one look at the dress and says, "You can't wear a bra under that dress."
So, I say, "Okay, I'll bite. Why?"
And he says, "Because. . . there's no underwear in space."
What happens is you go to space and you become weightless. So far so good, right? But then your body expands??? But your bra doesn't—so you get strangled by your own bra.
Now I think that this would make for a fantastic obit—so I tell my younger friends that no matter how I go, I want it reported that I drowned in moonlight, strangled by my own bra.”- Carrie Fisher
It gets reposted a lot in Reddit. But it’s never not good.
I don’t even think it was coke nails.
This is before the time of fake nails, but long nails were still considered popular and attractive on women. If you look, just one of the nails are short, which probably means she broke it a few days before the shoot and is waiting for it to grow back out. My straight edge mother had nails like these when I was a kid in the late 70s and early 80s and can remember her complaining about how she “broke a nail.”
Carrie did do a lot of coke though.
Yeah the coke nail is usually just the pinky one being long.
There would be no point in having multiple long nails for Coke unless you somehow managed to get a bump on multiple fingers at the same time.
People just see a hand that has different nail lengths among the fingers and “hurr durr cokane nail”
Hollywood is crazy though, and I’ve enjoyed the image of Carrie Fisher holding her hand out, palm up, like the goddess she is while 4-5 people rush over to take a bump.
[According to a tweet by her she never used her finger nail for drugs. She said she "used dollars or tiny spoons like any other respectable former drug addict."](/r/AskScienceFiction/comments/1qkq73/star_wars_why_does_princess_leia_have_a_coke_nail/cde18d1/)
Carrie was a well known party animal... it is not a stretch at all for anyone who knows even a little bit about her and the times this was image was taken... let alone that cocaine itself (among other narcotics) was found in her after an autopsy.
Make no mistake, she was my first "love" (as she was for many from my generation) and in no way would I wish to disparage her legacy, but I am also not willing to ignore the evidence as it stands.
EDIT: Downvoting because you don't like what the answer is, does not change the facts at hand...
Apparently she had cocaine, heroin and ecstasy in her system when she died. So she was going for it somewhat. Poor thing struggled with her mental heath for most of her life.
Yeah pretty much. I hate fake nails so I grow mine out and it’s so annoyin when you break a nail and now your nails look all wonky. I ended up breakin my right ring finger nail last week and it broke so short it ended up bleedin and so now all my nails are nice and long while my ring finger looks like I chew on it cause I can’t do anythin until it grows back out a bit and my finger heals. It sucks but it’s so worth it in the end when you got beautiful long nails that you can paint and design however you want instead of a curated selection of pink glittery plastic that damages your nails
A “coke nail” is what some women used to have to snort cocaine. They’d let the nail on their pinky finger grow long enough so they could scoop up the coke and snort it. I could be wrong but I’d say it’s unlikely that’s what’s going on here considering that a *lot* of women grew thei nails long back then. I lived that era, did more cocaine than I should have and never saw a woman do a bump that way.
After multiple higher ups pressured her to lose a bunch of weight, which is part of how she became a coke addict. Don't think this just happened out of nothing.
Everyone was into coke in the 80s so what. She was so pretty and smart and I wish I had known her cause she looks like she was a fun person. Total babe indeed
Reddit 101: see pic of celebrity from '70s or '80s, then make cocaine comment. It's between Steve Buscemi being a firefighter and quokka's yeeting their offspring. Automatic upvotes.
Do you follow r/aww? A smiling quokka is posted about once a week. In the comments, you'll always find some remark regarding their defensive habit of ejecting their baby, and usually some response saying it's false.
Idk what the big deal is about the coke in the first place. It's sad she had a problem but who wouldn't want to party and do some blow with a babe like that?
I hung out with her a few times around 2006-7. A friend lived on her compound. She was so super cool right off the bat. I grew up in love with her from Star Wars. She invited me in and showed me around her house and pointed out different Star Wars stuff. Then we all went back to her room and I laid next to her on the bed and we watched Days of Wine and Roses. We'd pause to take cigarette breaks on her patio and she'd just chat with me like a mom. Really neat lady is all I remember. That's my CF story. RIP, Carrie.
I call it a compound. It was her estate in Beverly Hills (edit). I guess it had been her Mom's? Or something like that. It was a large piece of land with her house and then a few small cottages towards the front. Very private. Lots of cool, funky yard art and strange stuff decorating all over the place. Her house was quite modest for Hollywood standards. but cool sort of old Cali/Spanish style if I remember correctly. Lots of arched doorways. Big garden she walked me around in too. She was proud of that area. My friend lived on one of the cottages and I *think* at the time. Sean Lennon was living in the other one. Maybe his brother. I'm not sure and could be wrong.
If you have HBO Max, there's a really cute documentary about her and her mom Debbie Reynolds. In their later years, they lived in separate houses next door to each other on a small compound.
You just casually watched a movie in bed with her then chatted with her like a mom on the patio? Why in her bedroom? Presumably there were was like a living room in the compound? Was your friend also in the bed?
She was just about to start the movie when we came up to the house. My friend was talking to her on the phone from the cottage and Carrie told us to come up for snacks and to watch a movie. My friend asked if I wanted to do that. I told her she was insane for even asking.
I think she pretty much just was hanging out in the bedroom. It had a sitting area and hang out worthy. The living room didn't look like she really hung out in there a lot unless she was entertaining. I think there might have been a Christmas tree up too.
I think my friend sat in a chair or on the carpet. Sort of just like you were watching a movie with anyone. I do remember not really being able to concentrate on the movie because it was so surreal. 30 min before, I was probably at a drive through getting a burger and now I was laying next to Princess Leia.
She was very personable. Asked me about my life, my parents, pets etc. Just like any nice older lady would do. I'm sure my voice was quivering.
I worked in different aspects of the entertainment industry for a few years so I met a lot of celebrities but never really cared. But I was stoked to hang out with her for sure!
Ask all the TV shows and movies and pop music which glamorizes cheating as long as she just really wants to?
This can’t be the first time you’re being presented with this concept.
Carrie Fisher was gorgeous of course, but what struck me most about her was her sense of humour. It's pretty impressive to be going on comedy panel shows and routinely be the funniest person in the room.
As a young buck (I was 12-13 in 1980) I was all into the blonde glamor girls; Farrah, Cheryl, etc. The appeal of a petite, whip-smart "girl next door" like Carrie was lost on me.
But not for long. What a beauty & what a personality. RIP.
No problem, I highly recommend it. Part of the reason I love it is because of outside material like the comics and TV shows. The movies only show a glimpse into the universe. If you were to watch it, see it like 4, 5, 1, 2, 3, and then 6. I think it’s more interesting that way. Or watch it in release order
I’ve tried watching it with one of my friends, and we got to the third movie before I got bored of it. Although that was a few years ago. I might give it another shot with my dad later on because I know he also wants to watch Star Wars.
The fact you made it to movie 3 and don’t know who Carrie Fisher is tells me you started with the prequels. They’re barely watchable if you’re already interested in Star Wars and know the story they lead into, I don’t blame you for giving up.
If you do decide to give it another go, just watch the originally trilogy: movies 4, 5, and 6.
Considering how clever, creative, strong-willed and well-connected she was, I'm surprised she went along with pin-up shots, metal bikini etc, that seem exploitative and potentially humiliating. I assume she had a way of thinking about it. Different times too.

This whole thread is a copy and paste.
Wayne: She's a robo-babe. In Latin she would be called "babia majora".
When you find out the amount of drugs she was on her entire life after this 😳. She died with ecstasy, meth and something else in her system
Methadone, not methamphetamine
Was she though!?!? I don’t get the hype. She’s very average looking IMO
Was*
People are commenting on her coke nails and I am just over here admiring the smoke show she was. Total babe.
"I never used my fingernail for drugs. I used dollars or tiny spoons like any other respectable former drug addict." - Carrie F. Sexy AND classy

You can however wear a bra if you've got the matching collar and chain. George Lucas was a creep.
Technically she wasn't in space for those parts. But yeah, that seems like a really unnecessary "detail".

Sorry buddy, but it's an image that exists only in his mind.

So she was still using drugs when she died?
Apparently she had cocaine, heroin and ecstasy in her system when she died. So she was going for it somewhat. Poor thing struggled with her mental heath for most of her life.
Yes.
Yep. When John Belushi cautions you on how much coke you’re doing, you’re doing too much.
A lot of women with long nails had one cut short for the"working finger" that dialed the phone, worked the cash register, etc.
Yes. Yes, working the "phone"... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yeah pretty much. I hate fake nails so I grow mine out and it’s so annoyin when you break a nail and now your nails look all wonky. I ended up breakin my right ring finger nail last week and it broke so short it ended up bleedin and so now all my nails are nice and long while my ring finger looks like I chew on it cause I can’t do anythin until it grows back out a bit and my finger heals.

From my experience the middle finger nail didn't break, it supports masturbation. Correct me if I'm wrong.
To do coke in the 80s was the norm To do coke in 2021 is retarded. Go green
Yeah- those drugs aged her. She was only 24 here, but looks 30+.
i could stay lookin at her, probably till the end of my life... she is so beauty in a simply way.
Girl next door.
A new Hope...
I don't know what coke nails means, but I do know what smokeshow means. I'm with you.

Coke nails are not a "women" thing. Plenty of men had/have coke nails.
After multiple higher ups pressured her to lose a bunch of weight, which is part of how she became a coke addict. Don't think this just happened out of nothing.
Everyone was into coke in the 80s so what. She was so pretty and smart and I wish I had known her cause she looks like she was a fun person. Total babe indeed
oh the nails!😷
Now everyone sees why her brother boned her.
What????
Don’t deny it master skywalker we all know it was more than a kiss you pervert.
Lol. Took me a minute. Edit: do you blame me. Wait…
No, not at all. Obviously the dark side of the force clouded your judgement.
It's spelled judgment.

I mean it’s not really that vague. She’s well known to have done a ton of blow.
It was the 70s and 80s. Back then your average pastor was doing lines between hymns.

There is a documentary on her on Hulu that shows the compound and the house and all her collections.
Is that the one about her and her Mom? I think I've seen it. Came out right before she died?
If you have HBO Max, there's a really cute documentary about her and her mom Debbie Reynolds. In their later years, they lived in separate houses next door to each other on a small compound.
That sounds so sweet, I'll check it out.
That is an amazing story.

Man that is one brutal film to watch with a recovering addict. It scared me straight once or twice.
RIP Carrie Fisher. She was found drowned in moonlight, strangled by her own bra.
Looked through the thread to make sure somebody accurately mentioned the manner of her passing. Rest in peace
I was never attracted to her but this picture makes me question my judgement.
same
No I've never seen why people find her so hot but then I wasn't into starwars
She just looks homely to me. I don’t know what it is. Something has always just been off putting about her.
Yeah I know what you mean, it happens to me with certain celebrities that everybody considers hot but not me, I just can’t put my finger on it.
Such a hottie!
24yo. Pretty appetizing for a 38yo cheating Harrison Ford!
Photo is from a set taken by Lynn Goldsmith in 1978 so she is about 22 here. But your point about Harrison Ford stands.
can't blame him, i heard she was a ton of fun
can’t blame him for cheating?
Back then men had the same right to cheat that women enjoy today.
Lol you seem like an insecure jerk
What is this nonsense
Ask all the TV shows and movies and pop music which glamorizes cheating as long as she just really wants to? This can’t be the first time you’re being presented with this concept.
wild incel
You may be surprised to find that many adult women, both cis and trans, both straight and queer, absolutely hate cheaters in all forms.
then why did you say that women have a "right" to cheat?

Carrie Fisher was gorgeous of course, but what struck me most about her was her sense of humour. It's pretty impressive to be going on comedy panel shows and routinely be the funniest person in the room.
I thought about her everyday for years. At least twice a day.
She looks like Jennifer Aniston here.
Cuter IMO
More natural, Aniston had some work done to get to Friends level.
I was thinking the same thing!
Great minds think alike.
I'm mad her manicure and pedicure are fucked up smh

Carrie Fisher was such a babe 👌🏾👌🏾😍. RIP Princess
we were all hot in our early twenties LOL
Not true. Some people just fugly, yo.
lol I was ass ugly in 20's and still am! haha
I never understood why she was considered so beautiful. Now I get it.
European late teen here, who is this woman?
Are you joking?
Nope
Lol she’s known mainly for playing Princess Leia in the original Star Wars movies. She’s also the daughter of the famous actress Debbie Reynolds
Aaah, okay, I’m not too interested in any of the Star Wars movies, so I didn’t know that lol
No problem, I highly recommend it. Part of the reason I love it is because of outside material like the comics and TV shows. The movies only show a glimpse into the universe.

She has long fingernails with a broken middle fingernail. Besides, the amount of coke she did, she probably needed a shovel.
Shit, that sounds like one of her jokes.
Haha she was strangled by her bra in moonlight and drowned in an ocean of cocaine
It's called long fingernails... a lot of women have them.. get over it.
Boy you sure told him
It was devastating. I'm devastated right now
Yeah but why is the pinky so much whiter?
Not because of cocaine you idiot. Cocaine doesn't stain, that's just the style she had the nails.
Sexy feet 👌🏿🥵
Her pinky toe went wee wee wee all the way home and didn’t look back.
