| American Idol's William Hung Found Dead of Heroin Overdose Las Vegas, NV - Kitschy American Idol Star William Hung, famous for his botching of Ricky Martin's "She Bangs," was found dead yesterday, apparently of an intentional heroin overdose. The announcement of his death sent shockwaves to the tens of people who still found him funny. Ironically, Mr. Hung was found by a VH1 camera crew sent to begin filing "William Hung: Behind the 'Music.'" Viacom immediately decided to rename the special: "William Hung: fifteen minutes till death." Friends of Mr. Hung say he had become despondent in recent days. "I don't know, it's just so sad," said Ming Tse, one of Hung's former classmates at Stanford, "I heard him the other day on Snotbubble's Morning Madhouse; he kept trying to make William say things like 'me so horny' and 'hey sailor' while playing the sound of a bomb falling. I just know William was hurting inside when Snotbubble got him to say, 'you wanna some-e egg foo young-e.' It was so sad. I just think he was tired of the commercialization of it all." Other friends, who had lost contact with him in recent weeks, feared he was becoming too "Hollywood." "I'm not surprised he was on heroin," said Hung's engineering cohort Melvin Samples, "I mean just two months ago we were out at our usual corner table at Smitty's, and William actually went and talked to some girls. The next thing I know he's doing shots with some hipster guys; they were calling him 'Long Duck Dong' and making him say 'au-to-mo-bile.' From what I hear, it's not a long leap from that to heroin addiction." Stanford's hippy population immediately misconstrued the situation and adopted Hung's death as a pet cause. "He was a victim of the corporate greed-machine, just like Kurt [Cobain] and Eddie [Vedder, who is actually still alive]," said one dreadlocked mourner outside the engineering department at Stanford University, where a makeshift memorial had been set up, "he just wanted to sing, and Fox decided to turn him into this joke, man, this fucking joke. They just ate him up and spit him out. Fucking Bill O'Reily. I think it's because he was against the war." The last comment is apparently in reference to the fact that Hung once answered "no, thank you" when asked whether he was "for or against the war in Iraq." The Las Vegas police released part of his suicide note. It read, "I have no reason of living . . . my art which is my importance to the best everybody laugh to . . . I make end here . . . goodbye world of cruel." Although Hung's immediate family disowned him seconds after his appearance on American Idol, it is believed he has an aunt in Toledo, Ohio who will take care of funeral arrangements. |

THE ABOVE STORY IS NOT TRUE! I REPEAT! NOT TRUE!
| William Hung is alive WILLIAM Hung is alive and kicking and still scheduled to come to Singapore for a concert. In fact, he will also be filming a TV special for SPH MediaWorks, which will be shown on Channel U and Channel i. His Father, Henry Hung, issued a statement recently to quell Internet rumours that his son had died. He referred to an article last week in the satirical website, Broken Newz, which apparently started the rumours. The story said the American Idol reject was found dead, "apparently of an intentional heroin overdose". Hung said: "Anybody can say anything they want to say. I heard about this last week. Well, he just performed in Atlanta a few days after the article." His statement, relayed from Los Angeles where he and his son live, was released to the media here by Keith Sim, the organiser of Hung's Sept 12 concert in Singapore. Sim said he had received about 10 calls from fans here and concert promoters in Hong Kong and Taiwan about the rumours. He said Hung is still scheduled to sing at the Esplanade. The younger Hung, 21, will be in China before heading to Hong Kong to film a comedy, My Crazy Mother, with actress Nancy Sit. He might also hold a concert in Malaysia. The civil engineering student will also film a TV special exclusively for SPH MediaWorks, the TV station said. Filming will start next month in China and he will also be filming in Hong Kong and in Singapore. There will be clips of him dancing and singing and he will also chat about his debut movie in the two-part, half hour special, which will be shown on Channels U and i in mid-September. William Hung's concert, presented by Novena Furnishing is at the Esplanade on Sept 12 at 8pm. Tickets at S$45, S$58, S$68 and S$78 (RM99 to RM171) are available from Sistic (02-6348-555). The concert also features local personalities Kumar, Leong, Abigail, Selena Tan, Hossan Leong, Abigal Chay and Irene Ang. Part of the ticket proceeds will go to the Kidney Dialysis Foundation. - The Straits Times Singapore/Asia News Network |
