‘Star Wars’ actress Carrie Fisher is dead at 60

Carrie Fisher, best known for her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars series, has died. Fisher suffered a heart attack while on a transatlantic flight late last week and passed away this morning after four days in intensive care.

Star Wars co-star, Harrison Ford released a statement about Fisher saying she was “one-of-a-kind”.

“You don’t have to like doing a lot of what you do; you just have to do it”, Fisher responded.

She was reportedly “unresponsive” when the plane landed and EMTs worked on her for 15 minutes before getting a pulse.

In the heartbreaking post titled “CARRIE FISHER, OUR PRINCESS, PASSES AWAY”, the execs praised her “endearing personality and sharp wit” while also crediting her as an inspiration for young women everywhere. “Drugs made me feel normal”, Fisher said in 2001.

The acting bug runs in the family.

Fisher is survived by her daughter, Scream Queens actress Billie Lourd, who she shares with her ex, talent agent Bryan Lourd.

Billie is now starring in “Scream Queens” as Chanel #3.

As Princess Leia, Fisher wore her hair in braids, tied up in two buns. The actress had a small role as Lorna, the daughter of Lee Grant and Jack Warden’s characters.

In 1977 she secured her now iconic role in Star Wars, filming the first installment of the beloved franchise when she was just 19. Her image also appears in this year’s movie “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”. They continue an on-again, off-again relationship for many years following. “I’m so devastated at her loss. I am very, very sad”. “Also, I do believe you’re only as sick as your secrets”. What if that happens again?’ We had rings, we got blood tests, the whole shot.

– “George is a sadist, but like any abused child wearing a metal bikini chained to a giant slug about to die, I keep coming back for more”.

Her most recent book, “The Princess Diarist”, was released in November. She later expressed regret about revealing the affair.

Katie, 41, wrote to her 669,000 followers: “Bloody hell”.

Throughout her life, Fisher was open about both her addiction to drugs and her mental health issues; in her writing about it, she was acerbic, self-deprecating, honest and prone to grand statements at once, as conversational and intimate as a beloved friend.
