Mariah Carey Dies? No, Singer Killed Off by Twitter Hoax

Don't you worry, Lambs: Mariah Carey is alive and well.

On Tuesday, the 42-year-old singer was the victim of a death hoax thanks to a slew of prank Twitter messages.

In tweets attributed to @BET, @TMZ, @CNN_TV and other outlets, Carey was incorrectly said to have been "found dead." (According to Gossip Cop, the users who began falsely quoting these outlets have been deactivated.)
