Britney Spears: R.I.P. Hoax. 2009
Rest assured pop fans, Britney Spears is NOT dead, she's just one of the latest on a long list of celebrity death hoaxes. The same day that Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett died, Internet rumors were flying that Jeff Goldblum fell to his death during an on-set accident in New Zealand (the same rumor had been spread about Tom Hanks in 2006 and Tom Cruise in 2008) and that Harrison Ford was lost at sea when his yacht capsized. Luckily neither proved to be true.
Over the weekend, somebody hacked into Britney's Twitter account and posted this message, "Britney has passed today. It is a sad day for everyone. More news to come." The news is this - not only is Britney alive, so are Ellen DeGeneres and P. Diddy (whose accounts were also hacked). So are George Clooney and Rick Astley who were reported dead this week, too. All of these stars join a long list of celebrities who have lived through rumors of their untimely demise – here are some of the most legendary.

On Celebrity Reality TV Trainwrecks...Chopergirl said "I have always loved her. She has been a very good part of entertainment - I remember when she was in Roots. AND then CHEERS, and then the talking babies with John Travolta. My gosh, we all have problems, and with those come stress eating at times...She is beautiful regardless of what she weighs, and not only physically beautiful, but also beautiful inside. She has had her heart broke just like the rest of us, and struggles like the rest of us....to bad people expect her to be perfect as that is what imperfect people like to see - someone perfect to make them feel better. Projecting their OWN disappointment onto others, in some sick way, makes them feel a little better. That is a terrible post about her. I will watch her show."

On Celebrity Reality TV Trainwrecks...Sardonica said "How is she anymore a train wreck than ANY body else, celebrity or not? We all have our issues. She is at least trying to better herself, not trash those around her, or laugh at the misfortunes of others. You're as bad as Perez. YOU are the one that needs to get a life, not her. "

On Oprah's Love Couch Confessionals...ratt said "Don't the people who read this crap have anything at all better to worry about? Is it REALLY any of your concern what this movie star or that musician is up to in their personal lives? Did any of you useless tabloid bottom feeding twats notice that I used the word PERSONAL? Not likely, because the people that read this stuff don't think anyone has a life that they can't have access to. A word for those who have nothing better to do than concern themselves about others in the spotlight... pathetic."

SassyMomma, Miley Cyrus is a tramp in the making. I don't blame her, I blame her parents. From the dirty pictures she takes and leaks every couple of months, to the fact she is dating a 20 (something) year old. Its just sick and perverted. Her parents are riding the gravy train and letting her run wild. She is like trailer park trash with a credit card.

why would someone wish Miley Cyrus dead because she seems to be a good girl and not immoral like most of society prefers?

I guess some people find humor in strange ways but I think falsely reporting someone's death is a little on the sick side. I am glad they are all alive and well and hopefully have many more years to enjoy life.
