Hoax

Brad Paisley made it his mission to track down the woman who fooled him, his wife and possibly two dozen others into thinking she was a little girl dying of cancer. And he succeeded.

Brad Paisley and wife Kimberly Williams-Paisley (of 'Nashville') were recently swept up in a cruel hoax that all started with an email from a woman claiming her daughter was dying of neuroblastoma, a form of pediatric cancer.

So remember the video of the twerking girl who accidentally set herself on fire? Remember how we all got a good laugh out of it? Remember how everyone from YouTube commenters to morning news shows dubbed it "the end of the twerking craze as we know it"? Well, turns out it was all a hoax perpetuated by that merry prankster Jimmy Kimmel.

Despite the rumors, Garth Brooks is not dead — so fans frantic to get a refund for tickets to his Las Vegas show can breathe a sigh of relief! Though word spread the country superstar passed in a tragic jet ski accident in the Turks and Caicos Islands today (July 16), the reports are completely fabricated.
