People Still Fall for Fake Celeb Deaths, Miley Cyruss This Time

How many times do you have to be told that when you hear about a celeb death on the internet that you should actually either A) Go to Google News and search, or B) Turn on a TV? Why so gullible?

I know...you never turn your head away from the computer and live in a virtual world. It is sad and pathetic.

Of course this one was a bit better than most. Someone actually hacked into Miley Cyrus' Youtbue account and posted a video alleging that she had been killed by a drunk driver. Now that is good hoaxing.

The video, which has been taken down, had a fake message from Cyrus pal Mandy Jiroux, who swiftly denied the rumor in a posting on her official MySpace page.

So...get back to worrying about what fat burners you can use while you rot away in your computer chair and stop crying.
