Enrique Iglesias murió en un accidente de coche hoy

Enrique Iglesias is dead. At least that's what the internet is saying. However, the "Finally Found You" singer actor didn't die. He's just the latest victim of an internet car crash death hoax. Enrique Iglesias is just fine.

A report popped up this week saying that Iglesias died in a car crash. Global Associated News said that Bell died in a single vehicle crash on Route 80 between Morristown and Roswell on February 9. The report says that Iglesias lost control of the vehicle and rolled the car, killing him instantly. It then says that memorial service plans will be announced and that he will have a closed casket due to his severe head trauma.

The report is false. Iglesias didn't die in a car crash. Since there are so many details to the accident, it's easy to believe that its real, but Global Associated News creates fake news reports.

A message at the bottom of the site reads: "FAKE... THIS STORY IS 100% FAKE! this is an entertainment website, and this is a totally fake article based on zero truth and is a complete work of fiction for entertainment purposes!"

Global Associated News allows people to enter a celebrity name into a generator, which then creates a fake news story about their death. Other celebrities have died in the same exact car crash before. Singer Jesse McCartney, tv host Jerry Springer, basketball star Kobe Bryant and several others were killed in a car crash between Roswell and Morristown.

Despite the report being false, fans are starting to believe the rumor. Several took to Twitter to mourn the loss of Iglesias. Some examples of tweets include:

"RIP Enrique Iglesias one of my favorite singer died in car accident today 

"Is it true that enrique iglesias died in an accident?"

"The popular pop singer Enrique Iglesias was reported dead in a car crash a few minutes ago.. 

"Enrique Iglesias is no more with us #EnriqueIglesias #RIP"

Internet death hoaxes have become a trend in the past few months.
