Absolute powerhouse of a personality. Charismatic, honest, insightful, intelligent, observant, strong, gentle, sensitive, mesmeric, bewitching and all of it genuine. How many people can you say that about?
A true no-bullshit person. I miss her.
Carrie was a uniquely intelligent and creative woman. Carrie was a rare "one and only"!!! What I appreciate most about Carrie besides her mind is her honesty, genuineness and likability. Carries ability to to comfortably and cleverly describe how she viewed and experienced the world is so very, very, very, very SPECIAL. I believe that everyone wishes they could have shared a slice of time and connection WITH her!!! I know I would have. Carrie is a truly memorable woman!!! Both Debbie and Eddie were absolutely exceptional and their off spring Carrie was destined to be AMAZING in the truest sense!!!
Enjoy heaven Carrie, Debbie and Eddie!!!!😘
One of the most honest and brilliant people in Hollywood. What a fantastic person - it's such a shame that she died so soon and that the sadness was too much for her mother. We won't see anyone like her again.
RIP Carrie missing you terribly already
It's funny that people questioned whether she had actually written her "Boop", when she is so effortlessly and spontaneously witty, charming and insightful in interviews.
I can’t help but notice that there is always someone who just wants to take a good person down. It’s sad.
I loved everything about Carrie! Her books cure manic depression!Gone, never forgotten.
Her humor is so lost on Larry, it's a shame. But in fairness, everyone's humor is lost on Larry.
VERY TRUE!
05:09 is pretty chiling in retrospect.
15:30 I love this lmao
I was just looking for thissss *A R T*
Have a terrible day. Take it really bad
J aw 😍🥰 you too sweaty
Maybe she sees men not as mere people, but as something special, something akin to a God like status
A clickbait page on FB shared this in a meme where they don't reveal the gender of the caller nor that Fischer laughed and said "uh no" afterward showing it was in jest.
That actually would make it validly sexist, so people who didn't know the full context were validly expressing their disagreement.
Immediately it was full of self-described "feminist" women and their male "allies" dogpiling anyone who had a problem with it, showing full support for its contextless sexist version, and even denigrating the caller, thinking they were male and were belittling Fischer by asking the question. 🤣
It's sad seeing so many who don't want gender equality but want to be the oppressors in a matriarchy.
I love her so much. She’s one of the few celebrities I actually mourned ❤️
Yes same here, I think it was her honesty and the fact that in a celebrity world she was so real everyone could relate to her.
Love her.. a kindred spirit
She was so deep,yet so accessible. precious lady...
swans good
I feel the same. And that’s scary for both of us…
Man I have never seen such down to earth talk. I love her. Thank you Carrie for this interview!!
11:40 - Carrie was such a badass.
R.I.P. Larry and Carrie :(
Just now listening and watching to her interviews and it makes me feel like I already know her. She's so well-spoken, deep, sophisticated, funny, and seems cool to hang around. Wish I could of got a chance to truly know her before she died. R.I.P. Carrie Fisher
True class!
I am glad she didn't burn those journals b/c that's some great poetry in The Princess Diarist.
RIP to them both.
Loved her so much❤
Oh Carrie, you were too young to leave us! Still shocked about her death. RIP to both Carrie and her mother, Debbie Reynolds
What a beautiful honest woman, talented in so many ways, and lost to us all to soon. If only she could have seen herself as others saw her. Simply beautiful.
I'm sorry that she blamed herself for her addiction problem. She had a difficult childhood despite all the wealth, you can see her discomfort in pictures of her from when she was a toddler.
That's because Debbie was a narcissist, addicted to the spotlight.
I'm very late here, but am enjoying this interview very much. I have loved her since Star Wars, as Princess Leia, and I was just an early teen, maybe 13yo. Then to see the movie Postcards from the Edge, I only watched bc I heard it was based on the book written by her, an a very loose autobiography; but I LOVED it. That when I found out about her great talent as a writer and specifically a writer of dramedies. I have the same dry type of humor. I watched the movie, Postcards, many many times. Then about just before she passed away, I saw the Comedy Special, and it was the BEST. I also grew up not thinking I has enough looks to get me by, to get a boyfriend. So I really hunkered down to study, and get as smart as I could. I ended up having a by-product in the form of a decent personality. 🙃
This was so good and I want more. This was an interesting point in her career and maturation. I had an urge to write down all the seconds when she tossed off a joke. I feel she was going to say more, but was switched onto the next question a few times. Awww. I suppose I want to forget this so that I can repeat it a year from now and discover her anew. Never forget her though!!!!!!!!!!
Sad that Carrie passed then a day later her mother passed.
It's not a look people are drawn to but a spirit! A genuine spirit!
Miss Carrie Fisher 😥
I am continually amazed by this incredible human being. @16:09, in 1990, a question and her response regarding the use of psychedelics whilst maintaining sobriety from mood-altering substances. A WOMAN AHEAD OF HER TIME.
Have you heard her story about Cary Grant?
@@Ruylopez778 Yep. Funny as hell.
Very beautiful woman and very intelligent as well.
She was so adorable back then.
Her voice sounded a lot like mom,Debbie,here.
She's so cool lol
15:31 Best response
lol but you can see on her face that she got the idea for that joke from the way the person asked the question hahaha it sounded like the caller said "do you find that men aren't people"
At 5:08 Carrie talks about her ultimate end. RIP
RIP
“I don’t think of men as people and I hope they are intimidated of me” best line ever.
Why the hell are you happy with such misandry?
I miss her a lot, she changed my life, she is the angel that protects me and I also feel a great connection with her, she is my princess and I know she suffered a lot but if I were still alive and knew her I would help her in everything, rest in peace Carrie I miss you 😔
Why did her voice change so much over the years?? smoking????
yes, cigs. Plus drinking alcohol and smoking at the same time will do it too.
Mr. Nibble Nips
Exactly. People seem to forget that Lucille Ball's voice changed in a similar way, also because of cigarettes.
And Whitney's voice changed dramatically from smoking cigs among other things.
She definitely had dentures put in circa the late 90s/turn of the century. I'd imagine that this had an effect too.
you guys are so wrong, ofc there are cigs but also medicine she took for bipolarity, they have many second effects
You know she was actually prettier in her 30s than she was in her 20s! I hate she had an addiction I know what that’s like. Overall, she’s awesome and always will be!!
She died of sleep-apnea but autopsy revealed heroin, extasy ect ....amoung pharmacetitucal drugs, smoking, drinking coca cola all day and having to excercise/training for Star Wars sequels and diet pills.
If any of yall are looking for this iconic clip, its 15:32.
Not good when someone knows so much about drugs that they can rattle off facts about them like a baseball fanatic does about baseball, and then makes excuses for why they're "not that bad." She never got free of her addiction.
I want to be a writer like she
She died so young
Look at Larry King, time is a cruel mistress!!!
Larry King has always looked like he was embalmed.
Yessss!!! He was so hot when he was younger, but boy time just ravaged him. It's such a shame.
star wars, when harry met sally ,not much else. criminally underused
Really loved her scenes in When Harry Met Sally and Hannah and her Sisters. Wish I had seen more of the Catastrophe series appearances too.
Where are the JOURNALS?
Edited into The Princess Diarist and her daughter may have them now.
I’m getting a lot of Jaimie Lee Curtis vibes here. She looks like her here. Random question... But given their backgrounds, I wonder if they were ever friends ?
In a gazillion You Tube clips, somewhere, Carrie jokingly mentions how much they have in common. Also, Jamie Lee Curtis worked with her daughter, Billie Lourd (Lourde?) in a series before Carrie died. She appeared in promotional interviews with Billie and is affectionate towards her too. There's some similarity to their fathers for them. And their haircuts for a period of time! And JLC talks about her own dishonesty before coming to sobriety, so there's a lot there too.
The Tao of Carrie Fisher
I can't believe she had die, the news said was stable condition.
andrea strickland stable condition only means organs are functioning. Bobbi Christina was in stable condition until the moment she was pronounced dead...
setmedic
Yeah, supposedly she never regained consciousness.
andrea strickland
Carries drug and alcohol abuse had taken it's toll.
Such a tragedy. Carrie was another world of special in every possible way. I am just grateful she didn't meet with death at a much earlier age due to the drugs. She lived and became a Mom and has given so much to so many along the way.
She is in heaven now. 😘
No, It was NOT the drugs and alcohol. Those things were long in her past, and I don't recall her ever having a drinking problem by the way. It was more than likely her not taking care of her health, or perhaps she was predisposed to heart problems. We just don't know. But the drugs, at the time of her death, were like 30 years in the past.
1:28 🤣🤣🤣
So Larry King looked this old in 1990. I was born December 1989 therefore I’m almost 30, yet that nigga still alive and looking the same. 😦
15:30 😂😂😂
Fuck the press for shitting on Carrie
Men aren’t people ? You mean there isn’t a guy who wants to be with someone who is bipolar
Yeah - Postcards must have been written by a guy.
I dont think of men as people rofl
Carrie's memory is not quite correct on Star Wars RoftheJ. If you ever watch that film again (and why would you?) you never see Carrie for more than a second or two at one time. The director said most of her Leia scenes had to be tossed they were so bad because she was so stoned. Also, Leia was supposed to have a short light saber duel with another character (not Vader) but it had to be scrapped because she never showed up to the duel rehearsals. Too bad, it would have been cool. Also, Carrie may have been popping pills, as she says, but her drug of choice was speedball which is cocaine and heroin mixed, snorted or injected. Only the most hardcore addicts do speedballs sooooo....
If she was injecting why didn't she get HIV/AIDS. I don't believe that she was injecting. I was wondering why in ROTJ Han was made a general right after being unfrozen from carbonate. Shouldn't Leia have been made a general first because she rescued him and brought him back. Leia seems like she was given a big demotion from the Rebel Alliance because she went from communications officer to Han Solo's assistant. Damn Harrison was doing a lot of eye rolling in that movie. I wonder if the eye rolling was directed at her. Although I absolutely love Carrie :D
massive drug addict. it seems to be rare for an elderly woman to be using such hard drugs and to be mixing them.
she was speed balling with cocaine Heroin - mix with MDMA and methadone, and some alcohol.
Dude that is insane. Usually a drug addict that makes it to their 70s have come to terms with their problems and kick the drugs, not Carrie. Not even a young could tolerate that mix
HostDisorder Many people with mental health issues, self medicate. She was just higher profile than most. Also no doubt she built up one hell of a tolerance, over the years.
What is this ?? I know she is famous but why upload this ??
The Gaming Snake she died today
whatttt!!
Linda Espinoza yep she passed away. R.I.P
goodbye Carrie I miss you 😢😢😢 r.i.p
The Gaming Snake Because she is way more interesting than you.
0:31 '...you look terrific...'
0:44 Her neck looks 70 years old! Was this really from 1990?
Your neck looks 70 years old
@@Rebelscum264 Yeah...but I _AM_ 70 years old!
