E! Online twitter hackers post fake gossip about Justin Bieber

According to New York Daily News, the hackers posted an "Exclusive" bit from Justin Bieber to E! Online saying ‘I’m a gay.’ This fake news led to 351 favorites and 1,200 retweets.

The group behind it call themselves the SEA, which stands for the Syrian Electronic Army. They are known for hacking into the Associated Press Twitter feed as well, racking up large amounts of false information. They are behind the hacking of the "60 minutes," BCC , NPR, and Reuters Twitter accounts.

According to Mashable, many other stars were hit with gossip as well, saying, “Angelina Jolie admits, in E! Latest issue, that Jordan is to blame for the Syrian refugees' atrocious conditions," and also “Exclusive: Selena Gomez tells E! She will fully support Justin In his coming out.”

E! Has suspended their Twitter account momentarily to resolve the issue: “E! Online's breaking news twitter and sms accounts were compromised today,” the organization said in a statement. “We're working to have this resolved as quickly as possible and are fully investigating the incident.”

Kris Kross Rapper Chris Kelly's Autopsy Completed, Finding No Signs Of Trauma Or Foul Play

The autopsy report on Kris Kross rapper Chris Kelly has returned to Atlanta coroners, implying the original claims that he died of an overdose are true.

Rapper Chris Kelly, of the popular 90's duo Kris Kross, has been found dead in his Atlanta home earlier this week (May 1) after a suspected overdose on heroin and cocaine. MTV now report that his autopsy has been completed, with coroners finding no evidence to go against the initial claim that he died of an overdose.
The Fulton County Medical Examiner completed his autopsy yesterday (May 2), however the official cause of Kelly's death won't be determined until for another three weeks at least, as coroners are still awaiting the toxicology report to return. Reports that the Kelly died after he had taken a mixture of heroin and cocaine, claims that were backed-up by his mother, are now looking justifiable, although police must wait until all available information has been collected before they can make a final report.
