Miley Cyrus Dead or Alive?
Rumors that spread through Digg.com and Wikipedia, 15-year-old Miley Cyrus, pop singer and star of the Disney Channel’s Hannah Montana TV series, did not die in a car crash on Friday, September 5.
As of Saturday morning, no such accident had been reported in any legitimate news source. The story is a hoax and a poorly spelled one, at that.
One version, attributed to “Rueters”, reads as follows:
Actress Miley Cyrus Died in Terrible Car Accident

The young starlet was on her way to the filiming [sic] of the upcoming “Hannah Montanna” [sic] Series when her vehicle was reportedly hit by a large truck.
