William Hung Is Not Dead



Previous News:
Las Vegas, NV - Kitschy American Idol Star William Hung, famous for his botching of Ricky Martin's "She Bangs," was found dead yesterday, apparently of an intentional heroin overdose. The announcement of his death sent shockwaves to the tens of people who still found him funny.

Ironically, Mr. Hung was found by a VH1 camera crew sent to begin filing "William Hung: Behind the 'Music.'" Viacom immediately decided to rename the special: "William Hung: fifteen minutes till death."

Friends of Mr. Hung say he had become despondent in recent days. "I don't know, it's just so sad," said Ming Tse, one of Hung's former classmates at Stanford, "I heard him the other day on Snotbubble's Morning Madhouse; he kept trying to make William say things like 'me so horny' and 'hey sailor' while playing the sound of a bomb falling. I just know William was hurting inside when Snotbubble got him to say, 'you wanna some-e egg foo young-e.' It was so sad. I just think he was tired of the commercialization of it all."

A false news-story involving the death of American Idol celebrity William Hung is currently circulating. The story claims that Mr Hung "was found dead yesterday, apparently of an intentional heroin overdose". The story is being passed around via email and has generated a lot of discussion among those who frequent online message boards.

In fact, Mr Hung is alive and well. This rumour started from a story on the satirical "news" site, Broken Newz. Although it resembles a real news story, it is a complete fabrication apparently in the name of entertainment. Personally, I find this sort of satire in poor taste.

The following quote is from the Broken Newz "About" page:
Broken Newz is a satire news and entertainment site. All names, except when public figures are being satirized due to their own stupidity, are made up and purely coincidental if connected in any way. The stories listed on this site are not real (really).

These are strange days indeed! William Hung has become something of a celebrity because of a decided lack of musical talent rather than the reverse. Mr Hung even has his own website! I'm very glad to hear that the likeable gentleman is still with us. I just wish he'd stick to singing in the shower rather than in public (grin).

WILLIAM Hung is alive and kicking and still scheduled to come to
Singapore for a concert.

In fact, he will also be filming a TV special for SPH MediaWorks, which
will be shown on Channel U and Channel i.

His Father, Henry Hung, issued a statement recently to quell Internet
rumours that his son had died.

He referred to an article last week in the satirical website, Broken
Newz, which apparently started the rumours. The story said the American
Idol reject was found dead, “apparently of an intentional heroin
overdose”.

Hung said: “Anybody can say anything they want to say. I heard about
this last week. Well, he just performed in Atlanta a few days after the
article.”

His statement, relayed from Los Angeles where he and his son live, was
released to the media here by Keith Sim, the organiser of Hung’s Sept
12 concert in Singapore.

Sim said he had received about 10 calls from fans here and concert
promoters in Hong Kong and Taiwan about the rumours.

He said Hung is still scheduled to sing at the Esplanade.

The younger Hung, 21, will be in China before heading to Hong Kong to
film a comedy, My Crazy Mother, with actress Nancy Sit. He might also
hold a concert in Malaysia.

The civil engineering student will also film a TV special exclusively
for SPH MediaWorks, the TV station said.

Filming will start next month in China and he will also be filming in
Hong Kong and in Singapore.

There will be clips of him dancing and singing and he will also chat
about his debut movie in the two-part, half hour special, which will be
shown on Channels U and i in mid-September.

William Hung’s concert, presented by Novena Furnishing is at the
Esplanade on Sept 12 at 8pm. Tickets at S$45, S$58, S$68 and S$78 (RM99
to RM171) are available from Sistic (02-6348-555). The concert also
features local personalities Kumar, Leong, Abigail, Selena Tan, Hossan
Leong, Abigal Chay and Irene Ang. Part of the ticket proceeds will go
to the Kidney Dialysis Foundation. – The Straits Times Singapore/Asia

Proteus Syndrome makes a Giant Leg

Doctors can’t tell Mandy Sellars why her legs keep expanding – all they say is that her only option is a drastic amputation. She travelled to the US for a new TV show in search of an alternative... It’s not easy being Mandy Sellars. She has hugely outsized legs that make having a normal life nearly impossible. People stare whenever she leaves the house, she needs a special car to get around and can’t work full time. What’s more, her condition is getting worse and doctors say she needs an amputation so severe she won’t be able to sit up. And she doesn’t even know what’s caused it. But the cheerful 33-year-old from Accrington, Lancs, just won’t be told. She’s challenged medics’ verdict and has just got back from America where she went to find a new treatment. And now she’s on a mission to find out once and for all what’s the matter with her. “As you can imagine the size of my legs and clubfoot make walking difficult and I need crutches just to get around my ground floor flat. “And people

Leryn Franco | World’s hottest javelin thrower

I'm sure some of you remember the lovely Leryn Franco. She was the attractive Paraguayan picked up by NBC cameras during the Beijing Opening ceremonies. It took people a little while to figure out that she competes in the javelin, but it took people almost no time to figure out she has her own modeling calendar. Anyway, there's not much debating her attractiveness, so how about we find out how she did in the javelin? Uh, not so good. As Fourth Place Medal informs us, Franco competed this morning and finished second-to-last in the qualifying round with a throw that was 12 meters short of her personal best. I don't know a lot about javelin, but I know that when you come in second to last, the only person worse than you probably comes from a country where javelins don't even exist. In other words, you suck. But at least Franco made an impression on us and taught us all a valuable and important lesson: Don't be ugly. Leryn Franco bridges the gap between sports and hot w

Raymond Hunter Geisel Arrested for Death Threat

Raymond Hunter Geisel was arrested Wednesday for a death threat geared toward Sen. Barack Obama. According to a Secret Service affidavit, Geisel, 22, was in a class for bail bondsmen when he "allegedly referred to Obama with a racial epithet and continued, 'If he gets elected, I'll assassinate him myself.' " "Another person in the class quoted Geisel as saying that 'he hated George W. Bush and that he wanted to put a bullet in the president's head,' according to the Secret Service. "Geisel denied in a written statement to a Secret Service agent that he ever made those threats, and the documents don't indicate that he ever took steps to carry out any assassination. He was charged only with threatening Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee, but not for any threat against President Bush." Geisel was interviewed on Saturday by agents of the US Secret Service's Miami field office and arrested a day later. Geisel denied making thre
