Megan Thee Stallion death hoax spreads on Facebook

Rumors of the rapper’s alleged demise gained traction on Thursday after a ‘R.I.P. Megan Thee Stallion’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the American rapper’s passing:

“At about 11 a.m. ET on Thursday (March 19, 2026), our beloved rapper Megan Thee Stallion passed away. Megan Thee Stallion was born on February 15, 1995 in San Antonio. 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 31-year-old rapper and singer 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 American network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of a rapper of Megan Thee Stallion's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (59%) of respondents think those Megan Thee Stallion death rumors are not funny anymore.
