A little over a year after her death, Carrie Fisher was posthumously awarded a Grammy on Sunday.
Fisher won her first Grammy for Best Spoken Word Album for the audiobook of her memoir, The Princess Diarist, beating out tough competition from the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Neil deGrasse Tyson, and Sen. Bernie Sanders.
People are loving that the prolific writer, actor, and icon is still getting recognition after her tragic death.
