Jaysus. Last week it was Eddie Murphy and now we've to inform you that Brad Pitt also isn't dead. We HAVE to stop falling for this sh*t.
The dreamy Hollywood actor is alive and well, you'll be thrilled to learn, despite reports that he'd died over the weekend. Pitt is yet another victim of an online hoax that most of Twitterville seemed to fall for. Strangely enough, it was rumoured that Mr Pitt had also died following a snowboarding accident, the same reason both Eddie Murphy last week and Charlie Sheen back in 2010 had also not croaked.
What's the jackanory with this, who do you know that has both a vendetta against Hollywood actors AND an affinity for extreme outdoor sports? Surely we can narrow it down?
Despite containing a disclaimer in some teeny tiny print at the bottom that this was indeed a false report, you'd be surprised how many people hit the roof with the news of Brad crashing into a tree while enjoying a spot of snowboarding spreading like wildfire on Sunday.
Seriously though, if you're going to kill off a celebrity, don't do it to Brad PITT! Do it to someone who might appreciate the sudden surge in exposure. Also I think that's enough snowboarding victims now, can you not dream up a more elaborate or realistic death?
