Daisy Ridley Is The Absolute Best, And I Have All The Proof Right Here

    Celebrating 26 years of this ~Rey~ of hope.

    1. That time she stole my calming regimen, and I wasn't even mad about it.

    Interviewer: How have you been calming yourself over the last eight hours?

    Daisy: I ate some guacamole and I had a half a glass of rosé, and that was great!

    2. That time she called out everyone who wouldn't let Rey be her own person.

    Daisy: I do think it’s hilarious that there’s this great character [Rey], and everyone is trying to attribute it to another character.

    3. That time she trained like a BOSS.

    4. And that time she didn't want to train (but was still a BOSS).

    5. That time she got real about her endometriosis and self-care.

    6. And that time she was like, "Oh yeah, there are men in space, too."

    7. Every single time she goofed in The Last Jedi and was a precious angel about it.

    8. That time she wore a suit to The Last Jedi premiere.

    9. And then AGAIN at the 2018 Empire Awards.

    10. That time she almost revealed deep secrets because of dental work.

    Daisy: I did really worry, actually. I got my wisdom teeth out and I thought, I literally thought to myself, "I hope I don't say anything when I'm sitting in the...

    Josh: [Imitating Daisy under anesthesia] It's Luke Skywalker! He's my daddy!

    11. And that time she appreciated the importance of naps.

    Daisy: I've been having naps this week. It's a beautiful thing to be able to have a nap.

    12. That time she literally carried a franchise on her back (in the form of Mark Hamill).

    13. That time she wore actual stars to a Star Wars premiere.

    14. That time she said she'd marry Leia during a game of "Snog, Marry, Avoid," and I had a stroke.

    Daisy: I'd marry Leia, 'cause she's cool.

    15. And that time she noted that "Leia was a babe," and I had ANOTHER stroke.

    Daisy: I mean, I think I was always like, "Leia was a babe." I wasn't like, "The guys aren't good-looking," but Leia was so kick-ass and vulnerable and all those kind of great qualities that make you warm to someone.

    16. That time she rapped with John Boyega, and it was the best thing that ever happened.

    17. And that time she knew all of the lyrics to Eminem's "Lose Yourself."

    Daisy: [Rapping] "His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy. There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti. He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready to drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting what he wrote down. The whole crowd goes so loud. He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out he's choking, how? Everybody's joking now. The clock's run out, times up, over, pow."

    18. That time she DRAGGED haters for body-shaming her.

    19. That time she proved she's the most down to Earth human being alive.

    Daisy: I think what's lucky about me is I've always been blown away by everything. I'm very grateful for everything that happens. For instance, I was driving through L.A. on Sunday morning, turned the corner, and there was a hawk trying to take off with a squirrel! I was like WHOA!

    20. And, of course, any time she has #Blessed us with her delightful snarly face.
