Hollywood stars and celebrities have posted heartfelt tributes to Lisa Marie Presley after she died at the age of 54 following a cardiac arrest.
The singer was taken off life support today after she was found unresponsive in her home by a housekeeper on Thursday, local time.
“It is witha heavy heart that I must share the devastating news that my beautiful daughter Lisa Marie has left us,” her mother, Priscilla Presley, confirmed in a statement to People magazine.
The entertainment world was quick to share their condolences for Presley, rocked by the death of the daughter of music royalty Elvis, and a talented entertainer in her own right.
Actor John Travolta, who was associated with Presley through the Church of Scientology, lead the tributes.
“Lisa baby girl, I’m so sorry. I’ll miss you but I know I’ll see you again. My love and heart goes out to Riley, Priscilla, Harper and Finley,” he said.
Another friend of Presley’s, Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan, described how he felt as “sorrow”.
“There is heartbreak and then there is sorrow. This would be sorrow and on more levels than I can count,” he wrote.
“Please send your prayers out for her family and children at this difficult time. I truly cannot find the words to express how sad this truly is.”
