Jeff Goldblum is NOT dead (Neither is Harrison Ford)

Jeff Goldblum death rumours a hoax

Jeff Goldblum is not dead.

Rumours are running rife on the internet that Goldblum fell to his death while filming in New Zealand.

The story, which first appeared on the spoof website Global Associated News and named the New Zealand police as its source, is a hoax.

The website clearly states below the story: "This story was dynamically generated using a generic 'template' and is not factual. Any reference to specific individuals has been 100 percent fabricated by website visitors who have created fake stories by entering a name into a blank 'non-specific' template for the purpose of entertainment."

New Zealand police told ninemsn it was highly unlikely that the report was true. "It is the first we have heard of it," police said.

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton has also slammed suggestions that the actor is dead. "Please don't get caught up in hysteria. Please don't spread lies! All this talk of Jeff Goldblum, Harrison Ford, etc is bulls**t!," Hilton said.

The death of pop legend Michael Jackson earlier today appears to have spawned a host of rumours that other celebrities have died. Unconfirmed reports that Indiana Jones actor Harrison Ford has been lost at sea, have also emerged. But according to US reports, both Jeff Goldblum and Harrison Ford are currently shooting a comedy in New York.


The two actors are mid-way through filming Morning Glory, the story of an old-school TV anchorman who joins a morning show. The cast, which includes Diane Keaton and Patrick Wilson, is expected to finish filming on August 15.

Wow, you get a couple of celebrity deaths and the internet falls to pieces.

Is it not enough for people that we've had REAL deaths that they can report on and talk about? Why would you need to make up news on a day like today?

Hadn't heard either rumours.

But if I was famous, I would come out and say "At least I'm still alive!" too.

Heard the Goldblum deal on a few sites. Immediately thought it was bogus. Guess that's what Twitter is for? Hah.

-HECK!

Haha, I can never poop again.

Excellent.

-HECK!

I swear to God, I think that Jeff Goldblum is watching you poop thing was like the first thing ever put on the internet.

Look at the link, it's to a geocities site. Do those still exist?

-HECK!

Apparently owned by Yahoo now, but you can't get free accounts.

http://geocities.yahoo.com/

Yahoo! always owned geocities. They used to be free, had one back in the day but they sucked balls. You could only visit the site like four times before a message flashed saying there was too much traffic. And there was dumbshit ads on it.

-HECK!

I never had a geocities account, but I do remember that fucking message saying all the bandwidth had been used. I had a netfirms site before, and that thing just went on and on like an energizer bunny.
