Joke emerges after losing ‘Sexiest Bald Man’
On 27th March 2021, The Independent shared an article on Twitter from indy100 which announced Prince William as the ‘World’s Sexiest Bald Man’, according to a Google Study.
This gained masses of online attention as readers began to respond with their opposing views.
Many viewers jokingly assumed that Jason Statham therefore must be dead, as he was not named ‘Sexiest Bald Man’.
The Rock was even jokingly questioned to be dead after, as another bald actor, he also lost the study to Prince William.
E! News also Tweeted the news story and received the same response.
Another reason for his speculated death could have also sparked from his supposed social media absence.
