Los Angeles, Jan 24 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The latest celebrity to die a death at the hands of Internet rumors, is none other than the hot and sexy actor Johnny Depp. The Internet is full of stories about his apparent death, but they don’t seem to be true at all. In fact Johnny Depp’s death news are amongst the top trending topics in Google Trends. Apparently the rumor gained prominence from the social networking and micro blogging site Twitter, where ‘RIP Johnny Depp’ is trending. This led to a lot of confusion, and soon the death news spread like wildfire.
According to the unconfirmed reports, the Kentucky-born Johnny Depp died in a car-crash. The hoax apparently started via a fake news story which was made to appear as a CNN story, and it was hosted on the free web hosting site angelfire.com.
On the fake CNN web page it is claimed that Johnny Depp died in a car crash. And the date on that web page is of 25th March 2004. This fake CNN web page also has a picture, in which a car has crashed brutally and it is presumed to be Johnny Depp’s car.
John Christopher “Johnny” Depp II was born on June 9, 1963. He is a well-known American actor. And more often than not, he plays eccentric characters such as Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean film series, Raoul Duke in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and Sam in Benny & Joon to the hilt. Very few people know that he is a musician too.
