Sarah Paulson Emotional Outside Diane Keaton's Home After Actress' Death

Sarah Paulson was visibly emotional as she left Diane Keaton's Los Angeles area home Saturday just hours after news broke that the Oscar-winning star had died.

Photos show the "American Horror Story" actress appearing distraught, at one point embracing someone outside the Brentwood residence before driving away in a black car. Several others were also seen gathering at the property as friends and loved ones paid their respects.

Paulson shared a close bond with Keaton over the years. The two were last spotted together during a dinner in West Hollywood in 2021.

During an Interview Magazine chat the same year, Paulson jokingly asked Keaton what made her heart sing, which prompted Keaton to reply, "Of course, Sarah, you make my heart sing."

As TMZ first reported ... the LAFD responded to Keaton's home around 8:08 AM Saturday, where paramedics transported one person -- who sources confirmed to us was Keaton -- to a nearby hospital. Dispatch audio captured responders referring to a "person down" at her address.
