Actress Carrie Fisher says she does not want look her age and wishes to change her appearance.
The 59-year-old actress is reprising her role as Princess Leia in the upcoming "Star Wars" movie for the first time since 1983's "Return of the Jedi", and is sad that she looks "melted" in the film, reported Female First.
She would be seen in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens".
"I look melted and I look my age. Unfortunately, I don't want to look my age. I would do everything but have serious surgery for it and look like a weird fish with gills."
Fisher, who also portrayed Leia in 1977's "Star Wars" and "The Empire Strikes Back" in 1980, joked she is a "failed bulimic" but insisted people shouldn't treat others' appearances as an "accomplishment".
"My physical self and I are not friends. We're not speaking and I'm ignoring especially my arms lately. I've never liked my appearance. Appearances are treated like, you know, something; an accomplishment. Look, your parents had sex and they were both good-looking. Great for you.
