Kanye West is, in fact, alive. Ordinarily this wouldn't be news-worthy (even for the guy who can't seem to keep himself out of the news), but the blogosphere has been going crazy during the past 24 hours after someone started a rumor on Twitter that Kanye died in a car crash. The story was even the top Google search this morning. It didn't help the situation that just days ago Kanye posted a bizarre Spike Jonze-directed video in which he stabs himself at the end (the video has since been removed).However, it turns out that Kanye is just the latest victim of some crazy internet hoax and is alive and well. His girlfriend, Amber Rose, put the rumors to rest when she posted on her Twiter:
"This RIPKanyeWest topic is not funny and its NOT TRUE! He has people like myself and his family that love him very much.
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."
