Dulce María death hoax spreads on Facebook
Rumors of the actress’s alleged demise gained traction on Monday after a ‘R.I.P. Dulce María’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the Mexican actress’s passing:
“At about 11 a.m. ET on Monday (December 23, 2024), our beloved actress Dulce María passed away. Dulce María was born on December 6, 1985 in Mexico City. She will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”
Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 39-year-old actress, singer and songwriter was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.
Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major Mexican network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of an actress of Dulce María's stature would be major news across networks.
A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (73%) of respondents think those Dulce María death rumors are not funny anymore.
Dulce María Death Hoax Dismissed Since Actress Is ‘Alive And Well’
On Tuesday (December 24) the actress' reps officially confirmed that Dulce María is not dead. “She joins the long list of celebrities who have been victimized by this hoax. She's still alive and well, stop believing what you see on the Internet,” they said.
Some fans have expressed anger at the fake report saying it was reckless, distressing and hurtful to fans of the much loved actress. Others say this shows her extreme popularity across the globe.
