Princess Leia Scenes - The Star Wars Holiday Special - Errore_404

Carrie Fisher appeared as Princess Leia in the 1978 made-for-TV movie The Star Wars Holiday Special, and her drug use was quite evident from her on-screen performance.

“mom, what does it look like when someone is on drugs?”

[@justmeyo4589]

Harrison looking like he's questioning what he's doing with his life and Mark holding laughter

[@Supdude.]

3:28 I burst out laughing when I saw Harrison Ford's "kill me" face

[@knotsandcrosses1]

She probably took one look at the script and went "fuck this, I don't want to remember ever making this piece of shit".

[@NewOrderOfAlexandria]

3:28 I gave up being a smuggler for this?

[@kev._._._.]

Carrie looks drunk out of her mind during this. Probably to ease the pain of having to be in this

[@cybr_angel]

She was at one point abusing drugs and alcohol. She was addicted and it took some time for her to stop doing them

[@cybr_angel]

She starting smoking at 13 then stopped briefly when a new hope was being filmed. Then she took them off and on to cope with her bipolar

[@breakingames7772]

She never was a drinker she admitted she was high on codine during this

[@masterexploder9668]

Carrie is on codine and coke. Mark is on painkillers after his car accident + face reconstruction surgery. Harrison just wants to get his paycheck and get the hell out of this loony movie.

[@lilshortkid100]

Really thought she was gonna fall over trying to get up out of that chair

[@Tuxxxido]

I cackled

[@masterexploder9668]

It probably happened a couple of times, just didn't make it to final edit.

[@Bart851]

Carrie sure as hell tripped balls during the filming. I'd probably do it as well if I had to play in this thing.

[@cosmicdude8282]

The way the video starts it's so fucking hilarious XDDDD

[@alienlife7754]

She came around that desk lime a water buffalo. Lol

[@skywalking3293]

She was totally wasted there 😂

[@jbvader721]

Cocaine, man. It's a helluva drug.

[@thurin84]

princess leia; "mala could you please put the man of the house on the line little lady?"

[@harwickbranch]

I never realized how bad that Rebel base set is, wow

[@alienlife7754]

She was probably at a party with John Belushi and said “Hey! I gotta go do this stupid ST Christmas thing! Be back in a couple of hours!” Lol. She made a movie back then too. I remember watching it on Showtime. Could not begin to tell you what it was about.

[@alansmithee183]

This movie is probably what started Belushi on speedballs in the first place

[@DoodleCNoodle]

Oh, there isn’t underwear in space, but there’s taxes?

[@lunantix]

And coke?

[@alansmithee183]

Space coke@@lunantix

[@meatman858]

The more I watch this the more she looks like the mom off of Christmas with the cranks

[@dennis2339]

According to an article I just read.... "Carrie Fisher was reportedly so hopped-up on coke during the filming of the "Star Wars Holiday Special" that she needed to use Chewbacca just to stay upright while singing her big solo. Her singing was so bad that the sound technicians turned up the music loud enough to drown out her voice" Her coke fingernail does look familiar ?

[@shirinf333]

I actually think that her singing here is absolutely beautiful

[@alienlife7754]

Well, my friend and I got high before watching this so . . .

[@H0VA]

Carrie Fisher was on super hard drugs here.

[@TheOfficeandGummiBearsFan]

0:00: Carrie Fisher as Luke Skywalker’s Girlfriend Princess Leia.

[@choppergirl]

This was cringeworthy untilt he closeups of Carrie Fishers face. Then we went back to cringeworthy.

[@aaronjohnson8490]

I wish I can be that fucked Up one day.

[@Cinicraft00]

Damn, so this is why she took up a pretty bad coke habit

[@larrykelley6739]

Sure she was wasted but she pulled it off. Only grown ups knew she was baked .

[@breakingames7772]

She admitted to doing codine during this special, she was never a drinker

[@masterexploder9668]

She was also doing cocaine during filming of Empire Strikes Back. It explains a lot.

[@mikesilva3868]
