Johnny Depp was declared dead on Saturday (January 23) after he reportedly died in a car crash in France, however, his rep has announced that that story was yet another internet hoax.
News of his death circulated around the internet quickly thanks to Twitter, with the web pranksters creating a fake CNN page and compiling pics of various car crashes.
“He isn’t dead,” Robin Baum told E! News. “He’s fine.”

Don’t screw around and say he is dead. My heart stopped beating for a moment. I mean jeeze we’ve lost to many great celebs in the past few months. It’s not cool to play like that
