tracy 2,379 Posted October 26, 2022 Local Tennessee affiliate reporting it too. Fairly convinced. Never seen TMZ yank an obituary like that, though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
time 8,575 Posted October 26, 2022 It appears that everyone reporting it is referencing the TMZ story, which no longer exists. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DeathClock 379 Posted October 26, 2022 My guess is that he is on his death bed and TMZ wrote his obituary in preperation. The intern just pressed upload on accident. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MortalCaso 1,618 Posted October 26, 2022 It says in the report someone claiming to be his rep told them he died. Likely a miscommunication or someone played a joke on TMZ. Either way, EVERYTHING REVERSE. Nothing to see here haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tracy 2,379 Posted October 26, 2022 Definitely too much smoke for there not to be something IMO. But, oof, what a ding for TMZ's credibility. Now everyone doubting one of their death reports can just go "remember JLL?" 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Died" in Aug 2020, rose from the dead around eleven days later and was given a tag that was I recall called "undead", and then died for the second and final time in February 2021. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, in the past ~10 years I've followed deadpooling, I've only noticed a few (and it's usually stuff that wasn't their problem, like Tony Dow and Tanya Roberts). The potentially apocryphal story about Lil Wayne dying per them might have been before my time. If JLL actually does live on for, like, over a month, people won't forget that one quickly. Definitely their biggest blunder I've seen off the top of my head. But we all make mistakes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ladyfiona 2,558 Posted October 26, 2022 I was wondering why Piers Morgan tweeted JLL was still alive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
