Contrary to what was announced Thursday morning on the website of France Blue, Johnny Hallyday is not dead. The radio has simply been a victim of hacking. Fans of the rocker can therefore take a deep breath.

The shock had to be awful for the few fans of Johnny to preview the information before it is removed from the internet. Thursday 28 September in the morning, radio France Bleu , has published an article on its website and its page on Facebook. She announces that Johnny Hallyday has died from his illness. ” The king of rock passed away this night “, one can read in the title. “The causes of death are yet to be determined. The track of the cancer is not removed “, is it then clarified. Panic online. Fans of the rocker 74 years of age and do not know where to give head. On one side, the rocker is sick, but on the other, no other media seems to repeat the information… And for good reason: it is wrong. Johnny Hallyday is in life and he intends to keep it that way.

Quickly, critics abound on the social networks. Several users are asking France Blue better check your sources in the future. Except that for once, the media is not there for nothing. In 2015, theAFP was wrong and had announced the death of the business man Martin Bouygues by mistake. This time, this is not the case. In 2008, the chain Bloomberg was posted online inadvertently an obituary of Steve Jobs that should not have been published as the death of the CEO of Apple, three years later. This is not the case this time. According to Maxence Petitjean, editor-in-chief of the website of France Blue whose remarks are transmitted in 20 Minutes, the account of the radio has simply been hacked. ” We have been the victim of a malicious action, specifies the radio. We present our apologies to the family of the singer, as well as to all persons concerned “.
