HERE'S one for George Lucas to fix the next time he decides to mess with the original Star Wars trilogy: Princess Leia's "coke nail".

Carrie Fischer's long battle with drugs is well known, mostly because of Fisher's inability to conduct an interview without referencing her days as a junkie.

She did a lot of cocaine while making Star Wars but you'd never know it from her performance.

But one fan on Reddit has noticed something suspicious in Return of the Jedi: an overgrown nail.

The weird-looking nail can be seen in a scene midway through the movie where Fisher rests her hand on Harrison Ford's shoulder.

For those not in the know, a coke nail is a longer than usual nail that addicts use to scoop up coke for quick fixes instead of having to chop up lines.



the idea of Princess Leia with a coke nail puts the Star Wars trilogy in a whole new light. You could read the saga as a spoilt little rich girl's attempts to get her dad to notice her: "Hey Dad, I blew your Death Star, touched up my brother and I'm getting it on with a smuggler while doing serious amounts of blow. What are you going to do about it?"

The junkie theory also explains why Leia was so quick to wear that metal bikini.
