#RIPZaynMalik trending on Twitter can only mean one thing...

As April Fools go this was a pretty morbid one. Still made us momentarily giggle a bit though, which speaks volumes.

Last night #RIPZaynMalik was trending worldwide on twitter because someone with too much time on their hands and darkness dwelling in their hearts thought it'd be totes hilars to make millions of teenagers think their idol/wall fodder was dead.

Some of the select responses range below
