Rumors of Kanye West’s death emerged overnight and even hit FOX News, as the Chicago born rapper was reportedly killed in a gruesome accident in Los Angeles. Various sources reported Ye’s red Porsche wrapped around a pole, at some point colliding with another luxury vehicle.

For more than four hours, the news was  a trending topic on Twitter and, Amber Rose, the subject of Kanye’s on again off again romantic affair, stepped in to dead the mischief.

She took to the popular microblog networking site and had this to say:

DaRealAmberRose: This RIPKanyeWest topic is not funny and it’s NOT TRUE!  He has people like myself and his family that love him very much.

DaRealAmberRose: It’s in extreme poor taste to have that as a trendy topic.  It’s totally disrespectful to make up a story like this where all human

DaRealAmberRose: And we all make mistakes and to say someone died cuz of a mistake is ridiculous.  U wouldn’t’ want someone to say that about u.

You have to wonder how a uniformed police officer arrived on the scene and ultimately reported such foolishness… but such is the world we live in.
