Official Tenacious D Twitter account was hacked on Sunday, June 5, announcing that the comedian 'died at the age of 46.'

AceShowbiz - Jack Black has become the latest victim of death hoax. In the early hours of Sunday, June 5, the official Twitter account for Tenacious D announced that Jack passed away. "I'm sad to officially announce the death of Jack Black at the age of 46, rest in peace brother."

It was followed minutes later with, "#RipJackBlack." A third message read, "It is with a heavy heart I am to announce that Jack Black passed away last night at 3:37am. The cause of death is yet unknown." After a number of news reported that the "Goosebumps" actor may have died, the hacker posted, "Calm down guys! It's just a prank bro, look there's the camera. The Legend is still alive, it is ok guys :)."

The hacker added, "While you are all on Twitter, you should all follow me @Ruthless." That account has since been suspended, and the death hoax tweets have all been removed.

Tenacious D's member John Konesky later tweeted that the duo's account was hacked.

A rep for Tenacious D, meanwhile, confirmed that Jack is still alive. "WE had our Twitter account hacked," wrote the rep on the duo's Twitter account, "We can assure you that Jack is ALIVE and WELL and that this was a sick 'prank'."
