Is Justin Timberlake ‘Dead and Gone?’ Death Hoax Won’t Delay 2013 Album '20/20 Experience Part 2' or Jay-Z Tour

Don’t worry...Justin Timberlake is fine. The “Dead and Gone” singer was the victim of another celebrity death hoax, however. Like many artists with upcoming projects (ie, his new album--20/20 Experience Part 2), Timberlake is experiencing a surge in popularity thanks to the misunderstanding and will surely bring it on tour with Jay-Z.

The rumor began by the totally non-credible, hoax site Global Associated News, who posted the following on their website:

“(Local Team News 9) Justin Timberlake died in a single vehicle crash on Route 80 between Morristown and Roswell. He was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics responding to the vehicle accident and was identified by photo ID found on his body. Alcohol and drugs do not appear to have been a factor in this accident - July 25, 2013

Highway Safety Investigators have told reporters that Justin Timberlake lost control while driving a friend's vehicle on Interstate 80 and rolled the vehicle several times killing him instantly. The vehicle was believed to have been traveling at approximately 95 miles per hour in a 55mph zone at the time of the accident. Witnesses have stated that Justin Timberlake's car crossed the double lines several times prior to the accident and hit the center lane divider causing the vehicle to flip and roll.

Toxicology tests will be performed to determine whether he was driving under the influence, however initial findings indicate that durgs or alcohol did not contribute in any way to this accident as it was more likely to been caused by road conditions.

Memorial services for Justin Timberlake have not yet been announced. The service is expected to be a closed casket funeral due to the severe head trauma.

Additional details and information will be forthcoming as they become available.“

One way you could have determined the above post was fake is because they spelled ‘drugs’, ‘durgs’. Just saying, y’all.
