It appears rumours of the death of comedian Jack Black have been greatly exaggerated.
Earlier, his band Tenacious D tweeted that the 46 year old had died.
But it emerged the group's twitter account had been hacked, and the School of Rock star is alive and well.
The band's since tweeted a number of times to reassure fans.
WE had our Twitter account hacked. We can assure you that Jack is ALIVE and WELL and that this was a sick "prank".
