Over the weekend, social media saw chaos as false reports of Eminem’s death circulated, triggered by manipulated Google search results listing a death date of December 10, 2023.
The hoax originated from a prankster altering Eminem’s Wikipedia page.
Despite the panic among fans, Eminem is alive.
This isn’t the first time he’s faced a death hoax; a similar incident occurred in August 2020 on Twitter.
Throughout his career, Eminem has encountered various rumors, including a 2006 conspiracy theory alleging his death and replacement by an android.
Eminem, a Grammy winner with over 500 million records sold worldwide, continues to make headlines, with his latest album, “Curtain Call 2,” released in August 2022.
However, his mention of Jeffrey Dahmer in some songs drew criticism last year.
