this thread cries out for it: WWJD

What would Jabba do? He would put her in a skimpy bikini and chain her up.

Let's all go back to our high school yearbooks and then take a look in the mirror. I gotta admit, I haven't done much better at 57 than she did. With a back injury, overweight, heart trouble, and pretty much bald, I can't brag too much myself.

For those of you in your 40's, don't get too cocky. Your time is probably on it's way.

I found a photo online of her taken April ‘08, and another dated “2009”. She seems to have aged years, not months, between those 2 photo shoots.

Time to see the dentist Fur Shur.

Another poster noted she's bipolar and depressed. Just about all the bipolar people in the country went throuh some major changes in medication the last three years or so ~ maybe less.

Some of them required additional "drugs/treatments" to assist them in the transition.

Just guessing that the picture was taken while Carrie Fisher was "between" 'scripts.

Her later photo looks much better ~ makeup or not ~ and I've noticed that same effect in other bipolar folks I know who've successfully been moved over to the newer medications.

Praise God.

I had to do an Google image search for Phoebe Cates (a fun activity in and of itself, of course) to see what you were talking about. Wow. Judging by the pictures I found, at 43, she could easily pass for 20.

Phoebe Cates and husband Kevin Kline in 2004. In 2004, Phoebe was 41.

She does a good job in the Robot Chicken Star Wars voice overs. But Billy D.’s the best in those (which I highly recommend along with the Family Guy’s Blue Harvest- Star Wars homage).

Anyone ever see the woman amazon from the “Gamesters of Trkskellion” on TOS Star Trek in her own photo shoot? The one where she’s wearing at least some of the furn she had on TV? Used to be able to Google Image it.

so much anger and hatred inside her.

Anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering.

Because I too am a human being. I know how a normal human being would respond, internally, to such a thing. I know how they feel when you physically stab them, being one, and I know how they feel when you put their picture on a public web site and make comments on how ugly they’ve gotten as they’ve aged, again, being one.

The only question is HOW impactive it is.

If she is an adult I am sure she has developed a thick skin. Nevertheless to her it is not “light humor”. It would be hurtful to any reasonable human being.

It is not light. It is hurtful. It’s like those pitures of famous female stars taken of them in bikinis on beaches showing how “ugly” they are.

Just sayin’.

Mean-spirited; that’s what this thread is. :(

I know only sci fi fans will recognize this name but in many fan's opinion, Elisabeth Sladen ( the new series of “Doctor Who” and her ongoing own spin-off “The Sarah Jane Adventures” ) looks better at age 61 than she did in her 20s on the original Dr Who ( mid 1970s ) and she didn't look bad then.

I posted the thread not as a joke or make fun of Carrie Fisher. It is how she has become since she became Princess Leah. I am sorry if it offended you, but people have different perceptions. But I am sure that you had some fun with it, even if only a bit. You would not have posted your comments otherwise (positive or negative). Carrie Fisher is public figure and I am sure this is not the first time that her “aged” picture has been made public, whether in print or in more public websites. Sadly, entertainers have to take the flak the public gives them since without the public, they’re nothing.
