Breathe easy, Morgan Freeman fans - the internet has once again failed to kill off the "Shawshank Redemption" star, despite its best efforts.

Freeman was once again the victim of an online death hoax this week, after a Facebook page announcing the 75-year-old actor's demise amassed more than 842,000 "likes.



At about 5 p.m. ET on Thursday, our beloved actor Morgan Freeman passed away due to a artery rupture," the page reads. "Morgan was born on June 1, 1937. He will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page."

Paris Hilton

It wasn’t any accident that killed the pretty hotel heiress. Her murder story had all the ingredients of a slasher flick. The story goes like this: Paris suffered fatal wounds after being stabbed repeatedly by an angry inmate while she was serving a sentence for violating her probation on reckless driving charge.



Miley Cyrus

Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus 'died' on 5th Sept, 2008 in a tragic car accident while on her way for shooting when her vehicle was reportedly hit by a speeding truck. The same night, Miley performed at Fashion Rock concert in NY, putting an end to speculations

For Britney Spears, it was a car accident. The internet was crammed with messages claiming that she died after a car driven by her then boyfriend Justin Timberlake collided with another vehicle. Twitter once again killed Britney a couple of years back. It is rumoured that the singer always carries a suicide note along with her. Twitter has sensed that Britney wanted to kill herself, and they have happily taken over that job.

Tom Cruise

Like Jeff and Natalie, the Kauri cliffs in New Zealand was the villain that took Tom Cruise's life. The world would have been so empty without the effervescent Tom. Thankfully, much to the delight of his fans, he 'rose' back to life. Now no actor would dare to go no where near the Kauri cliffs.

George Clooney

George Clooney falls from the Kauri cliffs? Oh not again. Even if someone actually dies after falling from the Kauri cliffs, no one is going to believe that!
