MANILA, Philippines — Host-dancer Billy Crawford is the latest Filipino celebrity to be the subject of a death hoax despite being alive and healthy.
At the beginning of November, numerous video posts on Facebook and TikTok began circulating that Billy had passed away.
His alleged cause of death was a "supposed illness" as a result of "weight loss" obtained through "lifestyle changes."
This was far from the truth as Billy uploaded a video last November 2 containing behind-the-scenes footage of the "I Gotta Feeling - La Tournee" concert in France last month that he took part in.
