One of the most famous child stars ever, Macaulay Culkin became the latest target of a celebrity death hoax over the weekend.
A fake memorial page was set up on November 6, claiming that Culkin was dead.
“At about 11am ET on Friday (November 7, 2014), our beloved actor Macaulay Culkin passed away. Macaulay Culkin was born on August 26, 1980 in New York. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Since a lot of people believed the hoax was true, Culkin took to social media to prove he is alive.
Firstly, Culkin’s representatives released a statement to say that the star is well.
“He joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax. He’s still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the internet.”
And, after that Culkin, who plays in a band called the Pizza Underground, posted a picture on the band’s Instagram captioned “We’re on tour you silly people”.
The band posted several images of Culkin to assure his fans that the actor is alive and playing in a Velvet Underground parody band.
