Carrie Fisher Lost 40lbs To Reprise Her Princess Leia Role! Holy Crap!


That’s true dedication!
The legendary actress Debbie Reynolds looked fabulous as ever as she chatted with Mario Lopez on Extra, and of course her daughter came up!
Carrie Fisher, aka Princess Leia, has been tapped to reprise her role for the newest Star Wars, but she had to/wanted to (hopefully she wasn’t forced!) drop some serious poundage to make it happen.
Reynolds revealed:

├óΓé¼┼ôThey├óΓé¼Γäóre in London now. Shes very excited about it She├óΓé¼Γäós been on a diet ever since [she was cast in the film], because you know they have to be up to par, so she looks terrific. She├óΓé¼Γäós lost 40lbs. She’s very excited, as we all are, because we all love Star Wars.├óΓé¼┬¥

And the best news is that if Carrie loves the part so much, the weight loss probably doesn’t seem like much of an issue at all!
We can’t wait to see her!
