'She put a cardboard cutout of herself as Leia outside my room with her date of birth and date of death on her forehead,' he told the Sunday Times Culture magazine.

The late actress invited the singer to stay at her compound after they met in LA and got talking about how he was making an album.
He recorded his top 10 hit Goodbye My Lover using a piano in the actress' bathroom.
The pair maintained a close bond and Fisher, who he describes as his 'American mother' became godmother to his one-year-old son.
Blues Brothers and Star Wars star Carrie was just 60 when she passed away in hospital in Los Angeles on December 27, days after suffering a heart attack on a flight home from London.

Her mother, Debbie Reynolds, 84, died of a stroke a day later.
Blunt added that Reynolds wouldn't let him see her without make-up on during his stay at the pair's home and added that it inspired the title of his album Back To Bedlam as it was a 'madhouse'.
The You're Beautiful hit-maker also opened up about the now notorious incident where Princess Beatrice pretended to knight him with a sword and slashed Ed Sheeran's face open.
'If he wasn't in the f****** way, I'd be a knight by now,' he joked.

The Shape of You singer needed stitches after it was claimed that Beatrice, 28, swung a sword over her shoulder while she was pretending to 'knight' Blunt, not realising that Ed was behind her.
He has since been left with a noticeable scar on his right cheek, an inch underneath his eye.
The incident is reported to have happened at a party in November 2016 at the Royal Lodge in Windsor, after Blunt, 42, joked that he would love to be made a Sir.
