It is mind-boggling the amount of free time some people have on their hands to sit around twiddling their thumbs deciding who they should cyber-kill next.
Will Smith became the latest celebrity to fall victim to cyber pranksters when rumors were spread about his supposed untimely death – which has been proven false.
While everyone was getting ready to get an ear and eyeful of the 2009 American Music Awards yesterday, someone decided to cook up a vicious rumor alleging that Will Smith perished in an automobile accident.
The false statement read,
Will Smith was driving his Porsche in the Hollywood Hills earlier today when he suddenly lost control and flipped his car. Paramedics arrived on the scene within minutes but were unable to revive Mr. Smith.
A rep for Will Smith has confirmed that the actor/rapper is alive and well, according to various news outlets.
Will Smith is not the first celebrity to fall victim to death rumors. Just a few months ago, rappers Kanye West and Eminem were rumored to have also perished in car accidents, those rumors were thankfully false.
In a year that has marked one of the saddest years in saying farewell to notable celebrities, false death rumors are simply not a way to get a laugh.
