Some are saying that Rick Astley is dead! Are we living in the celebrity death season? The question from the fans is if Rick Astley is dead or not! Why such a hoax? I saw a volunteer post on Ireports stating that song writer and singer Rick Astley has been found dead at the Angleterre Hotel in Berlin!
Sincerely I cant believe it. Rick Astley is not dead damn it! The post of Ireport is mentioning that the news is a pasted one from Associated Press but somehow I just screened the whole recent posts of Associated Press and see nothing of the sort there! A fake post and using the name of Associated Press in my opinion! Just another hoax until I can see a good confirmed news.
And if you look at the quality of the article itself it is easy to notice that this is not an Associated Press article. Below is the sample article:
