The latest to join this elite club is Morgan Freeman - whose fake death story circulated in social networks yesterday and today - making him as currently the most searched celebrity online.
But of course, Freeman is well and alive - as evidenced by the official statement from the actor's representatives. But still, the rumors persist - thanks to people who freely share such information without verifying facts first - oh the down side of social media!
Celebrities, specially music artists and film actors, are the number one victims of such rumors and has unfortunately been a bane on the credibility of social media in the past couple of years.
