The "Johnny Depp dead" searches have heated up on the internet. So is this news true, and did Johnny Depp die in a car crash?

If the news were true, you'd definitely be hearing about it as a major news story on networks like CNN, CNN Headline News, the Today Show and Fox News.

Some people enjoy starting up fake celebrity death news just to amuse themselves because they have nothing better to do than start internet rumors. The Johnny Depp dead rumors are part of many other celebrity death hoaxes that have been put together, many of which use the common car crash as the means of demise.
