Did, Uh, Anyone Else Happen to Hear That Bobby Brown Was Dead?

Nope, I didn’t either, but I guess it’s just another one of those fleeting web rumors that get started out of sheer boredom and hatred for certain celebrities.

According to various sources, Brown was said to have joined the ranks of other deceased celebrities throughout this week, but Brown’s rep quickly squashed the rumors. It was said on Twitter and Facebook that the former New Edition star suffered a “serious seizure” and had been rushed to the hospital only to die minutes after arriving.

Good thing. Who else would we blame for the continued ruination of Whitney Houston’s career? And face? Who else would we think of, aside from Whit herself, when we hear the catchphrase, “Crack is wack”?

Blessed saints must preserve Bobby Brown. … Either that, or all those years of drug abuse. This dude’s never going to bite it. He’s been practically mummified by cocaine.
