you might’t talk about actorBillie Lourdand not mention her extremely famous family.
Even her grandparents were famous actors the late Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds.
“She wants people to call me Debbie Reynolds' granddaughter.”
Read on for a few of them.
“Fisher wrote the film, and Streep was cast in the starring role.
From there, the working relationship quickly turned into a lifelong friendship.
When Fisher gave birth to her only daughter, she gave Streep the ultimate honor of becoming her godmother.
(After all, who wouldn’t want acting advice from the most admired Academy Award winner?)
Something Streep continually told the aspiring actor was to “enjoy yourself,” Lourd explained toElle.
Hopefully, we’ll be able to see them starring together in something soon!
“I’d love to work with Meryl,” Lourd toldVulture.
In fact, she went to college to study something completely different.
However, the small-town vibe didn’t seem to be the right fit for this city girl.
Yet, surprisingly, her family didn’t want her to have anything to do with acting.
“My whole life, they said, ‘Do not act,'” she toldInterview Magazine.
In fact, she once secretly took acting lessons at a performing arts camp.
Once Lourd graduated from college, she decided to give the acting thing a go.
When she told her family, they were less than ecstatic about her decision to go against their advice.
The answer was obviously yes.
In fact, she hopes to be able to release her own album and perform professionally.
Even so, the actor seems to have some sort of deadline in mind.
“And it got to just be something I shared with the people I love the most.”
It also helped that she could easily hide her bump while being stuck at home during lockdown!
When it comes to giving her son Kingston a sibling, Lourd is all about it.
In fact, she’s had her entire family plan figured out for quite some time.
At this point in her career, anything’s possible.
It quickly turned into something much more meaningful.
But everybody seemed to love each scene in which she did.
Shortly after “Scream Queens” premiered on our small screens, Lourd’s mother unexpectedly passed away.
Instantly, the accessory officially transformed into a way to pay tribute to her mother.
For one of these projects, she decided to include her daughter Billie Lourd in the audiobook.
In the recording, “I read the journals,” Lourd said during an interview withRadio Andy.
Even more exciting, “We actually won a Grammy for it!”
In 2017, Carrie Fisher was awarded theGrammyfor best spoken word album of the year.
Unfortunately, she was unable to accept the honor.
The announcement came one year after her unexpected death.
“It’s one of the greatest things I’ve ever gotten to do,” Lourdsaid.
“Carrie wanted her to bear my mother’s name,” hewrites.
“But everyone calls her Billie.”
“Sorry to anybody who’s named Esme.
It’s a beautiful name, but I prefer Billie.”
Yet, it was a major moment for this actor.
“I’ve never dyed my hair,” she revealed toVulture.
(She even asked if she could.)
Prior to the premiere in 2017, Lourd debuted her silvery strands onInstagramand made a total statement.
But that was only the beginning for her new look.
“I had to retouch it up, like, every two weeks,” sheadmitted.
Since wrapping up the show, Lourd has gone back to her roots pun intended.
The actress can’t cook
Billie Lourd can act.
She can practically do anything except cook.
“I’m pretty inept in the kitchen.”
However, don’t tell anyone in her family this dirty little secret.
Each Thanksgiving, Lourd always volunteers to make some of the side dishes during their family get-together.
Passing off store-bought food as her own wasn’t her original idea, either.
“It’s kind of become, like, a family tradition vibe,” Lourdsaid.
“My grandma [actor Debbie Reynolds] used to do it.”
However, when it finally came time to film, the star of the show had unpredictably passed away.
Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia, had always been an integral piece of the famous plot.
However, Lourd insisted on appearing in those scenes.
“But I said yes for her for my mom.”
She had a special way to pay tribute to her, too.
Like mother, like daughter.
Yet, there’s one star she would love to get the opportunity to meet someday: Beyonce.
A Lourd with the Queen is something we definitely have to see!
