In recent days, rumours have swirled that 87-year-old rock ‘n’ roll luminary Jerry Lee Lewis had passed away. His representatives have since stepped forward and dismissed these condemnable false reports of his death.

On Wednesday, (October 26th), TMZ published a story pronouncing the death of the ‘Great Balls of Fire’ singer following a period of illness.
