Justin Bieber Death Hoax: The singer is still alive; Viral claim debunked

This isn’t the first time any celebrity has been falsely pronounced dead on social media. The most recent victim of this internet prank is Canadian singer Justin Bieber, although the death hoax was later debunked.

However, the news was later declared “fake” after Justin Bieber made a public appearance on the same day. But the hashtag #JustinBieberDead is still trending on social media.
