23 year old Billie Lourd is no stranger to Hollywood, with actress Carrie Fisher and top agent Bryan Lourd as her parents.

The US actress set tongues wagging when she was confirmed as part of the cast for the upcoming film Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens, with rumours that she would be playing the role of Princess Leia's daughter, with her mother reprising her role from the original trilogy. While Lourd has denied she will play that character, she's keeping tight lipped on what her role will actually be. Aside from film work, she landed a role on TV series Scream Queens, in which she'll star alongside Emma Roberts and Jamie Lee Curtis, and has her eyes firmly set on even more high profile roles.
