As much as I love Rick Astley's music, why is this in the Wedding forum?

Astely wrote on his website that he is fine and is willing to perform in “your area.”

when he dies he should start floating to heaven and right when he gets beyond the clouds he'll randomly freefall to hell because he got satan rolled

You'll see.....

One more report confirming that he is NOT dead:

Rick Astley is reportedly dead. Rick Astley is also reportedly NOT dead.

In what appears to be yet another Internet death hoax this week, a fake AP report said the singer-songwriter, most famous for his one-hit wonder single "Never Gonna Give You Up" in 1987, had been found dead in a Berlin Hotel Room.

According to a CNN iReport that appeared to be based on a legitimate AP wire story, Astley's body was found at the Angleterre Hotel in Berlin:

"[Rick Astley] was found unconscious in his hotel bedroom and was unable to be resuscitated. He was pronounced dead on the scene."

Are you sure CNN just put it on their front page...

One way to revive a nearly dead pop-star career is to start a rumor that you've died. Ironic.

Nice one Rick.

Don't worry Cathy, you've got cred in my book

I knew it had to be that though, so I simply checked the properties... for yours and Tony's

Here is the actual CNN link for the story on Rick Astely. It's just a short blurb but will let you know what REALLY happened.

None of Tony's shenanigans!!!!!

Hope that clears up that!

Evan

mf'er rick rolled me

Yeah, like we needed a crystal ball for that one!

Why is Rickrolling allowed here? People should be banned for that.

EBH

You've been rickrolled!

If there's a person who sings that I can hire who will bring a beat box in, when I test for my black belt in Judo or my black belt in Ju Jitsu I think it would be so effin' funny to Rick Roll my instructor.

Or say you botch a wedding or portrait session. You could like bring up your bad photos on the screen, but then Rick Roll them and all will be forgotten! Divorce court? Rick Roll the judge!
