Carrie Fisher Memes & Tributes To Share

By now, you’ve probably heard the news that Carrie Fisher died on Tuesday. The 60-year-old actor/writer suffered from a massive heart attack on a flight from London to Los Angeles on Friday and everyone had been rooting for Fisher to get better ever since.

Fisher, aka Princess Leia from the Star Wars franchise, had many iconic film and TV roles throughout her life aside from the renowned princess, from Hannah and Her Sisters and When Harry Met Sally to Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce and Catastrophe. Her sense of comedic timing was right on, and apparent in her writing, too, as you may remember from the book and screenplay Postcards from the Edge, as well as from Wishful Drinking, which was based on her one-woman show. I happened to see Wishful Drinking when it first came out in Los Angeles and Fisher’s honest-yet-funny performance stayed with me long after the show was over and my respect for her deepened even more. As of late, Fisher had been mid-book tour for her newest memoir, The Princess Diarist.

For years, Fisher had been open about her struggle with addiction and being bipolar. She'd become a mental health advocate and received the Outstanding Lifetime Achievement Award in Cultural Humanism from Harvard this past year.

Of course, as Princess Leia, Fisher helped revolutionize the idea that women everywhere could be badass princesses just like she was, and her legacy, as a princess and non-princess, onscreen and off, will live on. And if you're feeling sad about her passing, you’re not alone. Fans all over the world have taken to Twitter to share Fisher memes and tributes.
