Carrie Fisher is a national treasure and long may her sassy reign last. In the aftermath of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” there has been a small contingent of fans angry that Princess Leia had the audacity to age in the last thirty years. How dare she!? Now I know Hollywood is pretty bad about casting women over the age of forty, but surely we must all see actual women out in the world that haven”t been half-frozen in carbonate in an attempt to shave off decades?
Not so much it would seem. But never fear, Carrie Fisher has words for body shamers. You can almost see her flipping the bird as she tweets.
Please stop debating about whetherOR not????aged well.unfortunately it hurts all3 of my feelings.My BODY hasnt aged as well as I have.Blow us????????
