‘Is Melcochita dead?‘, ‘Is Melcochita dead?’, and ‘What happened to Melcochita?’ are the questions that fans of the Peruvian singer and composer have posed following the widespread rumor of his death on social media.
However, this is absolutely wrong, as no relatives nor friends have reported anything indicating that this information is correct, and the comedian posted on his Instagram account a few days ago.
It should be emphasized that Pablo Villanueva Branda, real name Melcochita, 88 years old, was previously hospitalized in an emergency but has since recovered and is not in any additional discomfort.
The fake news originated after a post on TikTok, which reads: ” Breaking news. Melcochita has left us. Her health has become complicated in recent weeks, her body could not take it anymore ,” it reads.
The video was uploaded by user @solecito.1999. It has more than 12,000 views to date, but despite its reach, some Internet users have commented that it is fake, but others have believed it.
It should be noted that this is not the first time that the Peruvian writer and musician has been involved in a situation of this kind, as it had happened to him in the past, but it was also denied.
Melcochita did not die, it was all fake
