Does Chewbacca know?

From The Sun:
WHAT would Chewbacca say? Hollywood legend Carrie Fisher reveals she got up close with Harrison Ford while filming the iconic Star Wars movies.

The 51-year-old actress is still best known for impressing millions of teenage boys with her buns as Princess Leia.

Now, after decades of rumours, she finally spills the beans on her relationship with ever-hunky Harrison, 63, who played Han Solo.


She tells Justin Lee Collins in new C4 show Bring Back . . . Star Wars: “I went on the film saying ‘I’m going to have an affair’, like it was a kiwi, an exotic fruit — because I’d never had one!”

She adds: “I had a crush on Harrison for sure. Harrison is great fun when he’s had a few drinks.”

Shaking her head and saying: “I’m going to get in so much trouble,” she adds: “Once I left the room and came back and he was in the closet not wearing a lot of clothes.”

Asked about reports of intergalactic battles between Harrison and co-star Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker, Carrie says: “Harrison wouldn’t have a competition with Mark — it’s an uneven competition. He’d win, it would be mean to have a competition!”

Carrie, now a successful screenwriter, confesses there was “some jealousy” from Mark over Harrison’s huge success.

She adds: “Harrison had this enormous career by the second or third film, that was tough for Mark. He was like, ‘This wasn’t supposed to happen — it’s the adventures of Luke Skywalker’.”

She also reveals that during the first flick in 1977, director George Lucas made her cover her boobs with GAFFER TAPE.

She says: “I had to tape them down, because there’s no underwear in space. George knows that for a fact.”

Memorably, Carrie was made to wear a skimpy gold bikini as she was held hostage by Jabba The Hutt in Return Of The Jedi in 1983.

And she laughs: “George has it — he wears it all the time.

“That bikini didn’t move, so you could see all the way to Florida!”
