Billie Lourd pays tribute to mother Carrie Fisher at Star Wars premiere

Almost a year after Carrie Fisher's tragic death, her daughter Billie Lourd paid tribute to the iconic Star Wars actress and took on the mantle by appearing alongside her in The Last Jedi. Lourd honored her mother with two subtle visual tributes at Saturday's premiere in Los Angeles.

Lourd appears in The Last Jedi as Lieutenant Connix (she was also in The Force Awakens), and arrived at the premiere wearing her hair in a stunning bun just like Leia's from the end of A New Hope.

The hair may have been a more obvious homage to her mother, but Lourd also wore one of Fisher's rings on her left hand.
