As some idiot thought it would be fun to start a fake death rumor on twitter for Beyonce this evening, take anything from there with a large grain of salt until you hear it from a reliable source.

Well in this case it sounds like her family is corroborating with the story, as most of the reports as to what’s going on is coming from them, not twitter.

On a different forum yesterday someone was saying Carrie had died, so misinformation can go viral.

Ah, right. I’ve heard of some people doing that on Reddit. Right now we’re in a lull as her family’s not reporting on the specifics of her current condition, so announcements of her death are premature.

I would not be surprised if they were true.

Ol’ George has the GOUT, I see.

A little more positive thinking if you don’t mind?

I finally have a chance to go see Rogue One tomorrow, and I don’t know if I’ll even be able to relax and enjoy the movie with this going on.

Well I can tell you I definitely won’t be able to relax and enjoy Christmas with this going on!

The LA Times just posted an article that said she’s in rough shape but hanging on (can’t figure out how to copy a link from the Twitter app and don’t feel like busting out my laptop). I was honestly worried that she’d died yesterday and that they were waiting until after Christmas to make an announcement. Hang in there, Carrie.

I fear they may still.

I don’t see any reason why they’d do that.

Basically she found this article and it depressed her. And then she took offense at what Gareth said about why they used a body double.

Is anybody decaying, death marching ever closer? Are the sands of time so cruel that they should be arrested. Sent to a cardiac beach? Get CGI, perspective. Deal with it.

“People have aged so much that you can’t even get them to do the motion capture." - As though these folks are disobedient. Auditions are held. Gary(I) didn’t get cast.

The good thing is Carrie can afford the best of care from the best doctors.

It seems like people are really embracing the new characters. In fact, the big question people ask me now about Star Wars is, “Are Finn and Poe gay lovers?” And really how the f*ck would I know? My second husband left me for a man, so my gaydar isn’t exactly what you’d call Death Star level quality. ----Carrie Fisher

Maybe because they care enough about the fans to not want to suck the air right out of the holiday? Nobody wants bad news on Christmas.

I suppose. I guess I expect the millions of adults who would surely dread the news understand that the natural event of death can inject its insipid hand into anyone’s life at any moment be it a holiday or not.

I just wouldn’t understand delaying the news, even for a holiday. Nonetheless, it seems to be that she is now in stable condition so all of this discussion is moot.

There are also millions of kids who only know Carrie as Princess Leia.
