    Carrie Fischer suffered a massive heart attack Friday on an airplane ... TMZ has learned.
    Our sources say Carrie was on a flight from London to LAX when she went into cardiac arrest. People on board were administering CPR.
    We're told the emergency occurred 15 minutes before the plane landed in L.A. A flight attendant asked if there were any medical personnel on board and an EMT who was sitting in the back of the plane came up to first class and administered life-saving measures. The plane landed just after noon in L.A. and paramedics rushed her to a nearby hospital.
    Fisher, who became famous, of course, as Princess Leia from 'Star Wars,' has been on a book tour.
    Story developing ...

    For God's sake, let's pray for our princess!

    Hoping Carrie will be OK. If the plane was fitted with a defibrillator and staff that can use it she might have been brought out of cardiac arrest fairly quickly and without too much damage being sustained.

    Fingers crossed for her.

    Yeah and an EMT was onboard and rushed up from the back and administered CPR to her.

    Praying for her.

    This is making me feel ill, I got to meet her earlier this year and see her panel at a Con and she was an absolute delight....she just has to be okay, 2016 has already taken too much.

    After watching her panels at the last two SW Celebrations how could anyone, possibly even herself, have guessed this would happen?

    May the Force be with her

    This is awful... I'm praying for her. The strange thing is, this occurred at the exact same time I was watching ANH and I said word for word: "I hate that all these Star Wars actors are dying". And now I hear this! Horrid news, there will be no Christmas if anything happens to her.

    I first heard about it from Peter Mayhew's Twitter account. I'm pretty worried for her, but I have faith she'll pull through. Get well soon, Princess- er, General

    This is awful news. She's someone we feel we've grown up with, but more importantly think about her family right now too. This a terrible time.

    Which is why it makes my blood boil that people nearby like to post the news on social media just to get the news out first and their own name in the news too, more than likely before her family even know about it.

    I'd like to assume her family was notified as soon as the plane landed in LA.

    Comicbook.com and Variety both call her condition "critical" and "not good."

    This past October, I came home and found that my brother Brian had suffered a massive heart attack. I called the EMTs, but it was far too late and they were unable to revive him. It was a pretty horrible experience.

    Hearing this about Carrie Fisher brought back very bad memories. I hope and pray for her recovery.

    TMZ is reporting she was not breathing for 15 minutes, and is on a ventilator at UCLA Medical Center. :(

    Don't you do it 2016. DON'T. YOU. FREAKING. DO. IT.
