We know that you probably think that we at CelebNewsWire are cold, uncaring, unfeeling jagoffs who just like to make fun of people. And, true, we do take great pleasure in ragging on Paris Hilton's wonky eye and ass goiter, and if we saw Denise Richards fall down a well, we'd probably laugh for about twenty minutes and then throw pennies at her. But we have hearts, truly we do. And today those hearts are aching. We feel true, human pain because lovely and charming British actress Natasha Richardson has been in a skiing accident and is currently in critical condition. People brings us the sad news:

Actress Natasha Richardson was hospitalized on Monday afternoon in MontrÈal after suffering a serious head injury, PEOPLE has confirmed.

The Tony-winning star, 45, was first brought to Centre Hospitalier Laurentien near the Mont Tremblant winter resort following a skiing accident. At 5 p.m. she was transferred to HÙpital du SacrÈ-Coeur de MontrÈal.

Her husband, actor Liam Neeson, 56, left the set of a movie he was filming in Toronto and rushed to his wife's side, reports AccessHollywoood.com.

"Liam Neeson left the Toronto set immediately to fly to Montreal upon news of his wifeís accident," a rep for his film Chloe said in a statement to Canadian TV. "We do not have any details at this time but we hope for the best and our thoughts and prayers are with Natasha and Liam and their family."

Richardson ñ daughter of famed British actress Vanessa Redgrave, 72, and producer Tony Richardson, who died in 1991 ñ has been married to Neeson since 1994. The couple have two sons: Micheal, 13, and Daniel, 12.

We think Natasha Richardson stands amongst our favorite celebrities, right near Cate Blanchett and Julianne Moore. Thanks to ABC Family and TBS, we've probably seen The Parent Trap roughly 42 times, and we couldn't think of a better movie mom than Natasha. Sure, that luck didn't exactly help Lindsay Lohan, but her real-life mom probably canceled out all of Natasha's excellence. CelebNewsWire wishes Natasha a speedy recovery.
