Following the death Wednesday of legendary actress Debbie Reynolds at the age of 84, one day after the death of her daughter Carrie Fisher, social media was inundated with tributes by her Hollywood peers.



Reynolds was rushed to the hospital in the Los Angeles area Wednesday afternoon, a source close to the actress confirmed to ABC News. The day before, she had addressed the death of her daughter on Facebook, thanking friends and fans for their continued support.



Actress Joely Fisher, the half-sister of Carrie Fisher, tweeted Wednesday night, "Some of the magic people have left the tribe...for the moment I am inconsolable...," followed by a trio of broken heart emojis.
