    I read on another forum that apparentley Bill Cosby has passed away, I havent been able to find a source on the internet outside of that forum, but a few people said they just saw it on CNN within the last 10 minutes.

    EDIT: His date of death has been edited into his Wikipedia page by some one, so It sounds like its legit [​IMG]

    Err... I wouldn't trust wikipedia as lone source in a matter such as this. If he is dead, media will probably have information about it very soon.

    Yeah people edit Wikipedia all the time so they BS about it. Let's wait until the official news releases information because Wiki is usually only good for sources after they've been released and not the first ones to do so. I hope that they're wrong though, Bill is the man.

    I haven't seen this anywhere, and I'd imagine the internet and media would be all over it. Probably a hoax.

    At the moment his wiki page says he's alive. Probably another one of million e-hoaxes. I remember a really funny one not too long ago where they announced that comedian/radio personality Artie Lange had died of an overdose in his hotel room, and they even got the hotel manager to believe it was true, so he went on CNN and reported the news to all of America.

    I think, whoever you heard that from, meant his acting career ended.

    I did see him in a pepsi commercial a couple years ago.

    Wow can't believe I didn't even notice this thread. I know it's a hoax because that would've been front page when I log on to this aol. I remember right after Tupac died ppl was starting this stupid rumour that Chris Tucker died.
