Fantastically Rare Behind-The-Scenes Star Wars Photos

START SLIDESHOW

Let me put it out there that I am a huge Star Wars fan. I'm talking way back to the original trilogy. I make that distinction because I know a lot of Star Wars fans who started with the prequels. No disrespect to those fans, but I'm just saying that I go way back.

If you don't like Star Wars, I don't want to talk to you. There's a lot you could do to me that wouldn't make me upset, including hitting me with your car, but saying you don't like Star Wars isn't one of them. My heart is all Star Wars love - even the stuff no one likes (Jar Jar).

These rare Star Wars photos will make even the biggest hater feel the love for this amazing franchise. How could you not when you see what goes into making the creatures and spaceships we all know as iconic. And yes, there will be some photos of Leia in a gold bikini.

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

II

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

IV

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
