Meryl Steep | Billie Lourd – Carrie Fisher’s Daughter

Carrie Fisher and Meryl Streep are also celebrities in their own right, with a long list of accomplishments. However, in terms of attitude, you’d swear they came from different worlds. The actresses, on the other hand, defied the odds and dug a little deeper inside themselves to find common ground in women’s advocacy, defeat, and, most importantly, laughter.

The two formed an extremely close friendship. Fisher’s only daughter, Billie Lourd, is Streep’s goddaughter. Billie also pursued an acting career like her mom and godmother. She is best known for her acting credits in the FX horror anthology series American Horror Story and Scream Queens. She also stars in the Star Wars sequel trilogy as Lieutenant Connix. Andy Cohen asked Billie about the best part of having Streep as her godmother during a May 2019 visit to Watch What Happens Live. “I mean, she’s Meryl Streep!” Billie answered.
