No, if you google that story it has been posted with just about every celebrity's name that you can think of.
I like that flava flav spells rumor as roomer and am glad it is not true. He's had some bad movies ( the one with Kevin James and I heard the one where he plays his own sister is horrible) but I grew up watching billy Madison and happy Gilmore and the water boy

And damn near any other celeb you can name... This "news website" has been posting this with "insert celeb here SKI ACCIDENT" since at least 2010. When someone comments on a message board or preferably facebook. on the alleged death it increases the websites hit count, with curious readers clicking on the provided link... Thus making the website more valuable.
If this article, and all the other articles about celebs dying while skiing at Zermatt were true.. If I was a celebrity I would stay the hell away from there!!!

And thereby continuing my complete descent into confusion over how the berkeley anybody ever presumes to get value out of purchasing advertising for anything other than porn on the internet.

That's what I'm seeing, too

^^^ well done.
BTW, when I was checking on the death rumor I ran across an amusing story about Sandler and why he has poison ivy (skip to the 4:00 mark)

I can't believe that the Global World News isn't a reliable source. They even have a globe in their logo!
Oddly enough, I spent the last two days in Zermatt. Didn't see Adam Sandler, Mickey Rourke OR Eddie Murphy, who apparently dies there every six months or so.
If you gotta go, there'd certainly be worse places, though. Although I paid $14 for a water and a Powerade at the lift station at the base of the Matterhorn. Death is probably the only cheap way to leave there.
