Here are 9 of the craziest rumors spread about celebrities on the internet...

1. Lorde is 45 years old!

New Zealand singer Lorde (whose real name is Ella Yelich-O'Connor), a world-famous singer, raises many questions about her true age. Many believe she is over 40 years old because of her appearance. Her unusual beauty undoubtedly contributes to this rumor.

The young star is actually 20 years old. This information has been confirmed by her birth certificate, attesting that Lorde was born on November 7, 1996.

2. Avril Lavigne died and was replaced by an imposter

A fan page of the Brazilian singer created this myth in 2015. The website claimed that Avril Lavigne died in 2003 and was replaced by an imposter named Melissa Vandella.

The author supported her hypothesis by remarking about the celebrity’s physical changes and her much darker song lyrics. All this has been refuted, but the rumor lives on...

3. Stevie Wonder is not blind!

The famous American singer isn’t really blind according to some people. They rely on the fact that Stevie Wonder buys TVs, attends basketball games, and even tried to catch a microphone when it dropped.

It’s rumor that made him laugh and even make fun of in an interview.

4. Marylyn Monroe was a size 18

Marylyn Monroe is an icon because of her talent, as well as for her physique. She is often described as the ideal female figure. Her measurements were actually closer to the so-called "perfect" measurements of 36 (chest), 24 (waist) 36 (hips).

Although some dare to say that she wore a size 18, many stylists confirm that the actress wore size 8 outfits.

5. Katy Perry is actually JonBenét Ramsey

The pop star is as famous for her hit songs as for how easily she can make herself up or change her looks in her music videos. Among her fans, some have come up with the idea that Katy Perry’s real name is JonBenét Ramsey, the famous children’s beauty pageant winner.

Unfortunately, JonBenét died at the age of 6 in a famous murder that hasn’t yet been solved. The creators of this rumor base it on the physical resemblance between the two... You be the judge. Just so you know, Katy Perry was already 6 years old when Ramsey was born.

5. Beyonce is sterile!

The American singer became the subject of gossip after an interview with an Australian TV show. During her first pregnancy, she proudly displayed her round belly in a gorgeous red dress. But in a matter of seconds, everyone accused her of lying when a strange crease appeared on her belly when she sat down in the chair.

Many thought she might have been wearing a prosthesis and that "Queen Bee" had fertility problems. Since then, the singer has given birth to 2 little girls and has shown off her pregnant body on social networks to silence the rumors.

7. Paul McCartney died in 1966

Some of Paul McCartney’s fans believe he died in a car accident and was replaced by a look-alike. Many of The Beatles’ songs suggest this theory.

On the cover of the famous album Abbey Road, which sold 30 million copies, McCartney is the only member of the group who is barefoot. This symbolizes the image of a deceased body, which would be buried barefoot.

8. Walt Disney's body was cryogenically frozen

The famous animator and producer of cartoons who needs no introduction had his body cryogenically frozen. This is a way to preserve the body at very low temperature. The goal would have been to retain it and “wake it up” in the distant future when technological progress permits.

This theory is supported by his interest in this technology, but nothing more. In fact, Walt Disney chose cremation and his ashes were placed in a memorial park in Los Angeles.

9. Prince Harry's father is not Prince Charles

Comments on the last years of Princess Diana's life have often been centered on her "adventures" with men other than Prince Charles. The love relationship of the princely couple was faltering at the time with many suspicions of deception on both sides.

Many theories and rumors have emerged. Prince Harry has also suffered. The rumors were that the red-haired prince’s father was James Hewitt and not Prince Charles.

10. Elvis Presley is not dead!

The King of Rock's hardcore fans still believe that the singer faked his own death to escape the craziness of his popularity.

The day after his death, someone named John Burrows bought a one-way ticket to Buenos Aires at the Memphis airport. A disturbing fact: John Burrows was the nickname that Elvis Presley always used to book a hotel room anonymously.

The death of the King continues to inspire many people’s imaginations...
