There is never a dull moment on the internet. With the bite-sized content, TikTok is an apt platform to spend hours on for umpteen information. And with all its glory, TikTok has quickly become a hotspot for red herring. It has become a diluted version of dark web antics, as Taylor Swift falls prey to this rabbit hole.

On a regular day of people dancing on TikTok, rather unnerving news started spinning.

Why Was โ€œIs Taylor Swift Dead?โ€ Trending?

A video was posted from an accountโ€“ @taylor.fan17.

Quick overview of the video: It is a set of images from Taylorโ€™s Atlanta Show while the voiceover narrates an incident. They claim that Taylor Swift met with an accident on returning from the concert. The male narrator alleges that an unnamed man who hit her car has been brought into police custody.

This posed a grave question for the โ€œBlank Spaceโ€ singerโ€“ Has Taylor Swift died from a fatal car crash?

Debunking The โ€œIs Taylor Swift Dead?โ€ Trend

Debunking The โ€œIs Taylor Swift Deadโ€ Trend

Exhibit One: No solid evidence for the claim

The video is just a random voiceover. The OP posted one video and then bounced without a follow-up. There is no basis for any argument, just a claim.

Exhibit Two: Conflicting Timeline

The video was posted earlier this May when Taylor was performing in Atlanta. Since then, she has delivered a stellar performance in the Nashville concert on May 7th, even in storming rains.

She knows sheโ€™ll get sick, she knows she might slip or fall, she knows the danger of performing in a weather like this and yet she still went and performed anyways until 2 am. Thereโ€™s no one more dedicated to their fans in the music industry than her.pic.twitter.com/lSQqVA2ZUI

Swiftโ€™s professionalism and dedication are a testimony against baseless rumors.

Exhibit Three: She is thriving, and Swifties are unhinged

ย Taylor Swift was quick to thank her fans for enduring the rains and supporting her.

What Are The Repercussions Of Such Fake News?

Death hoax is not new for Swifties. At the very young age of 19, she faced her first internet hoax as a viral video suggested she died in 2009. Even though her PR team handled it pretty well, the trollers did not stop there and posted another one in 2012.

Jennifer Aniston was the latest victim of a death hoax in March 2023, where a Facebook post read that she had passed away.

And just at the end of last year, Twitter was buzzing with #RIPJimmyFallon for no reason.

Although people tend to click on these trends out of curiosity, it incentivizes its algorithm rank and pushes such a narrative further. Google search promotes these trending keywords, thus spreading fake news like wildfire. Many brushes off this news, but young impressionable minds take it as carved in stone.

Itโ€™s all fun and games or โ€˜its-just-a-prank-broโ€™ until the family of these celebrities catches hold of this news. Imagine the panic and trauma in moments of uncertainty. The negative toll on the victimโ€™s mental health is jarring.

BEFORE CONSUMING ANY NEWS, ASK YOURSELFโ€“

  • Is the source credible?
  • Where did they get the information from?
  • Did they post a follow-up?
  • Browse the comment section.
  • Analyze the counter-argument.

And as for social media platforms, they should regulate the content posted and impose punishable offenses on the perpetrators.

From a little girl who wrote school plays and made her friends act in them to an adolescent who got into dark humor, Yashica has built her own universe of peculiar characters inspired by great cinema. She has imbibed the philosophies of David Fincher's characters but lives like the eccentricity of Phoebe Waller Bridge's women. Her metahumans are those who can use the power of words to create an elixir of emotions and bring them to life on screen. Jordan Peele, Issa Rae, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Ilana-Abbi, Raj-DK, Anurag Kashyap, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and others are her Marvel's Avengers. With over two years of experience as a content writer, her writing pieces are well-researched, with a sprinkle of her opinions/inferences that keep the audiences engaged. She is still exploring more on the anime scene but is highly intrigued by it. The cinephile in her makes her appreciate the intricacies of filmmaking. You will get a lot more insight into it in her articles and thoroughly enjoy her explanations. Well, someday, you might see Yashica as one of the writers for a movie-- it's her ultimate dream!
