Carla Abellana Funny Response To Death Hoax
CARLA ABELLANA – Pinay actress and model Carla Abellana is the latest victim of a death hoax. She reacted to it funnily.
The internet and social media platforms act as potent channels for the fast-spreading of rumors, enabling false information to quickly gain attention and become viral. A death hoax involves deliberately spreading misinformation about someone’s death, which is later proven to be untrue.
Occasionally, individuals may intentionally fake their death. New rumors about the premature death of celebrities emerge almost daily, and it has become increasingly effortless for such false news to gain widespread attention.
The prevalence of unverified posts or comments on social media poses a significant risk, as even a single instance can be widely shared and accepted as truth by millions. Celebrity death hoaxes are not a recent occurrence.
Although the digital age has seen a surge in death hoaxes due to the ease of spreading information online, the phenomenon itself has been present for decades.
Carla Abellana stirred up social media when she responded to an online announcement falsely declaring her untimely ‘death.’ On February 19, Monday, Carla shared a screenshot on her Instagram page, @carlaangeline, displaying what seemed to be a Facebook post spreading the news of her supposed passing at the age of 36. Despite the gravity of the situation, Carla found it amusing, as indicated by her caption.
In the caption of her now-viral post, Carla expressed her amusement with a laughing-crying emoji and the words “aray ko po.” The screenshot she provided revealed that an Instagram user also reacted to the Facebook post, dismissing it as a hoax and suggesting legal action against the perpetrator.
According to the IG user, “Hoax ito at kailangan niya ng makasuhan… dami nang ginawan ng fake news nitong taong ‘to.”
