Fake Kanye West Death Reports Hit The Net, Amber Rose Kills The Rumors
By Ronnie Gamble ♦ Published 10/21/2009

Kanye WestKanye West is dead? If you believe everything you read, you might think this is true, but it's not.

A fake death rumor made it's way to the internet this week, claiming the rapper/producer was killed in a car accident on Tuesday evening (October 20th).

The rumor prompted Twitter users to send "RIP Kanye West" tweets across the micro-blogging network, helping the phrase become the evening's top trending topic.

West's girl, Amber Rose, took to her official Twitter profile (@DaRealAmberRose) to dispel the rumors, and let everyone know Kanye is alive and well.

"This 'RIPKanyeWest' topic is not funny and its NOT TRUE! He has people like myself and his family that love him very much," Amber tweeted. "Its in extreme poor taste to have that as a trendy topic. It's totally disrespectful to make up a story like this where all human and we all make mistakes and to say someone died cuz of a mistake is ridiculous. U wouldn't want someone to say that about u."

Following her reaction, Amber began to post several tweets with the hash tag "#LongLiveYeezy," in which she posted several Kanye quotables. Below are a few of them:

-- and we all make mistakes and to say someone died cuz of a mistake is ridiculous. U wouldn't want someone to say that about u.

-- 50 told me to go ahead switch the style up, and if they hate let them hate and watch the money pile up!!!

-- she had hair so long that it look like weave. So she cut it all off Now she look like Eve

-- there ALWAYS be haters; thats the way it is. Hater n###as marry hater bitches & have hater kids.

-- reebok baybee u need to try sum new things/have u ever had shoe strings?/whats that ye? baby these heels

The news comes over a month after Kanye stormed the VMAs stage during Taylor Swift's acceptance speech, drawing backlash across the board.

Even President Obama called him "a jackass."

Despite it all, Amber says she will stand by her man. "I'll always ride for my man!!!! I'm bout to get off here and still RIDE for him. LITERALLY. Holla," the model tweeted.

    Kanye West is not dead and this is not the first time the death of a celebrity was faked on the internet. Many people are rushing to search for news about Kayne West's death while the Twitter crowd are busy fueling the rumors. Twitter is known to have fueled sparks in rumers thanks to its large user base and popularity. But one question remains to be answered, who started this rumor that was taken to Twitter and spread rapidly?

  • Jay

    damn - too bad that idiot is still with us!

  • kanye hater

    Damn the talentless MF is still alive he shouldn't be.
    He'll do anything to get his name in the news he is the worst.

  • Jp

    Hah, well...4chan strikes again.

  • jay from the Vi

    I think it's awful to wish someone is dead and all he did was snatch a mic...damn Rkelly and many others did worse. For the people who want him dead make sure you know there is power in the tongue and while you did a grave go ahead and dig one for yourself.ONE

  • jay from the Vi

    I meant dig...

  • The real Jay

    Kanye is one of the hottest rapper out right now. If you like real hip hop than no doubt you like Kanye. I hope every thing is ok with him though. What he did to T swift was wrong but to want him dead for it is veeeeerrrrrrryyyyyyy wrong.

  • LadyKnows

    What is wrong with you evil idiots, wishing death upon a person. You better be careful, the curse will come back on you. Keep up the good work Kanye West I love you and your music.
