The legendary 65-year old singer is the latest victim of the Internet death hoax when "RIP Cher" became a Twitter trend a few days ago.
Apparently, everything started when a user by the name @Lorraine_Star posted a fake tweet which was made to look like an official CNN report. Many people and celebrities alike bought it.
The message was: "RT @CNN: American recording artist Cher dies at 65 years old. Found dead in Malibu home."
"Did I just hear Cher has passed away? Is this real? OMG," Kim Kardashian tweeted, never one to sit back and not insert herself into anything trending.
Of course, it is true that Cher hasn't been active on her Twitter account since January 22, but that's not a reason to believe a celebrity is dead…
However, her good friend and jewelry designer Loree Rodkin set the record straight with the following statement: "Whoever started that stupid rumor needs to have their face dragged across concrete. It's a hoax. She's fine. She's so NOT dead. She's just a busy girl."by FW Editor |
