Actress Billie Lourd Thanks Public For Support After She Loses Her Mom Carrie Fisher, Grandmother De
Early life

Lourd was born in Los Angeles, California, the only child of actress Carrie Fisher and talent agent Bryan Lourd. Through her mother, Lourd is the granddaughter of actress Debbie Reynolds and singer Eddie Fisher, and the niece of Todd Fisher, Joely Fisher, and Tricia Leigh Fisher. Her godmother is actress Meryl Streep. From her mother's side, she is of Russian Jewish, Scots-Irish and English descent. Writer Bruce Wagner is Lourd's godfather.

Lourd studied religion and psychology at New York University, graduating in 2014.
Career

Lourd played the role of Lieutenant Connix in the 2015 Star Wars sequel film The Force Awakens. On The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2017, she said that she auditioned for the lead role of Rey, which ultimately went to Daisy Ridley. Lourd will also appear in the next installment, Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

In February 2015, Lourd was cast in the Fox horror-comedy series Scream Queens. Lourd's character, a rich and disaffected sorority girl known as Chanel #3, wears earmuffs as an homage to Fisher's iconic "cinnamon buns" hairstyle from the original Star Wars film. In December 2015, Lourd spoke about her initial meeting with Scream Queens creator Ryan Murphy:
I thought he wanted me to audition, and so I was just very relaxed and casual about the news. I didn't think he wanted to hire me, I knew that's not how things worked. The next day, they told me, you know that offer you didn't sound too excited about? It's an offer, not an audition. I flipped out. I didn't know how he was doing this! The next week I was in New Orleans.
By December 2015, Lourd had joined the cast of the American biographical crime-drama film Billionaire Boys Club, alongside her Scream Queens co-star Emma Roberts. Lourd was cast as Rosanna, love interest of Kyle Biltmore, played by Jeremy Irvine.
In 2016, Lourd returned to Scream Queens for its second season. She joined the cast of American Horror Story for its seventh season, in the role of Winter Anderson.
