Celebrity conspiracy theories

We all have at least heard one of the many celebrity conspiracy theories, from ‘Elvis Presley is alive!’ ‘Marilyn Monroe was killed,’ and now ‘Anne Heche was murdered’ and while it is fun sometimes to read out-of-this-world conspiracy theories, they are the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the pervasive misinformation culture that we all live in today.

And one can quickly go down the rabbit hole of misinformation, and the next thing you know, you are a QAnon conspiracy theorist who believes in the Hollywood Blood-Harvesting Conspiracy.

Celebrity deaths

It will always be heartbreaking to hear about the death of a celebrity not only if you are a fan, but when their work in movies and music becomes intertwined with your own life.

To name a few celebrities who died recently — Betty White who would have been 100 years old this year, died a few days before her birthday. She would have been the Golden Girl twice over;) I adore her, and who doesn't?

Bob Saget who died this year, was the voice of future Ted, on How I Met Your Mother.

And Olivia Newton-John, when a singer dies, how can you not think of their songs that have become part of the soundtrack of your life?

Hopelessly Devoted To You, You're the One That I Want, and Suddenly to name a few.

Her death even brought back a deeply buried memory, of a young love, of a boy who never knew I loved him, and of my nine-year-old self who hasn't fully understood that he is gay.

She was a big part of my life, more than I ever imagined while she was alive. In my tribute to Olivia Newton-John, I wrote — He was my John Travolta to my Sandy, Grease made me realize I was gay.

He Was My John Travolta, Grease Made Me Realize I Was Gay

Rest in love Olivia Newton-John

Anne Heche dead at 53

Anne Heche declared dead twice. How can that be?

Anne Heche died Friday, according to her hometown paper, the Los Angeles Times. Or she died Sunday, per the New York Times and others. Her time of death was either recorded on August 12 or August 14.

Between those dates, the 53-year-old actress was in a state of mortal ambiguity that challenged the media to parse a legal, even philosophical question: When is someone actually dead? — Excerpt, The Washington Post

It was tragic. The details of her car accident put to light Anne’s struggle with mental health and drug abuse.

When she was taken off life support and pronounced dead, unlike Olivia Newton-John’s death hers wasn’t received with a collective sadness instead she was blamed for her death.

And instead of sorrow, hate was thrown at her by strangers, who felt she didn’t quite live a life worth their grief.

Yes, I do get the fact that she endangered the lives of those inside the house her car crashed into.

In her death, Anne Heche has become the subject of celebrity conspiracy theories being peddled on social media.

And you will be surprised that people are speculating that Anne Heche was murdered because of a film she made, ‘Girl in Room 13’, while it is about sex trafficking, is not a movie about the life of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Powerful men like Bill Gates by association have become part of a big conspiracy theory that is spreading like wildfire since his death.

Epstein like Anne Heche was said to have been silenced and killed.

Because with him dead he brought to his grave the secrets of many powerful men, who were never named or punished for being his patrons in a sex ring operation that involved minors for which he was found guilty of by the courts.

In light of the news that Anne Heche’s death was ruled an accident by the Los Angeles County Department of the Medical Examiner-Coroner, more questions arise not from the legal standpoint but in the court of public opinion.

Inhalation and thermal injuries were cited as the causes of death by the coroner. According to the online report, other “significant conditions” in her death included a “sternal fracture due to blunt trauma.” According to the report, Heche’s body was released from the coroner’s office. — CNN

Many of the claims by celebrity conspiracy theorists or by those who believe that a ‘New Age Illuminism’ in which celebrity plays a major role, hiding behind the glitz and glamour of Hollywood have been debunked by fact-checkers.

The Reuters Fact Check team has released its findings and yet celebrity conspiracy theories have already been widely shared over social media.

Final words

False. There is no evidence that Lifetime’s movie ‘Girl in Room 13’ — starring late actor Anne Heche — is about late disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. A spokesperson for Lifetime told Reuters that the film was inspired by true events but not by Epstein’s case. — Reuters

Many of the things you will read about Anne Heche are false. It isn't just Anne Heche but the deaths of Betty White and Bob Saget were also subjected to celebrity conspiracy theories, that they died of poisoning, all of which are nothing but a hoax.

One in four Americans believe in conspiracy theories, if you want the truth, you have to stop spreading the lies.

Thank you for reading.
