Death hoaxes are nothing new to celebrities or the Internet. Every once in a while a legitimate-looking article will pop up saying a big-name celebrity has died is some sort of bizarre or tragic accident.
Jaden Smith, Will Smith’s son, is the latest target. An article has started popping up on Facebook claiming that Smith committed suicide in late July even to headline sites with legitimate sources like CNN.
This isn’t the first time Smith has been the target of a death hoax. Around 2012 or 2013 Smith was said to have died in a tragic snowboarding accident. Rest assured, he was alive then and is alive now.
The rumors have since been disproved, so we can all rest easy.
