Stacy Martin death hoax spreads on Facebook

Rumors of the actress’s alleged demise gained traction on Tuesday after a ‘R.I.P. Stacy Martin’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the British actress’s passing:

“At about 11 a.m. ET on Tuesday (November 19, 2024), our beloved actress Stacy Martin passed away. Stacy Martin was born on January 1, 1991 in Paris. 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 33-year-old actress and model 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 British network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of an actress of Stacy Martin's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that 88% still think false Stacy Martin death rumors are funny.
