Hmm...apparently Billie committed suicide a little bit ago.
"In what appears to be an apparent suicide, musician Billie Joe Armstrong was pronounced dead as a result of cardiac arrest after consuming more than two-dozen sleeping pills.
Complete details are not yet available, as this story is still developing. "
This is way old but I printed out the article cuz one of my classes wants a non-credible internet article. Anyways, there's a disclaimer at the bottom of the site that its entirely fake. All the articles are made by visitors entering random names into a template.
haha this reminds me. okay, i had tickets to the concert billie supposedly had a panic attack and couldn't attend. we went up to the people working there and all they said is the lead singer is in the hospital. so i did some reasearch on the internet and found many reasons he canceled. one was his throat swelled up and he almost died. another was the panic attack one. the BEST billie joe rumor, though, is he canceled our concert because CARL ROVE poisoned his food. in other words he was eliminated by the president's people. surrre.
three months later our concert was rescheduled and it was AWESOME. except JIMMY EAT WORLD WASN"T THERE! they were supposed to open for them and i was crushed cause i love them too! oh well, i love green day more!
I heard it was because he had a bad cold... ah, who knows - it amazes me how people make stuff up like what you said.
4. He's a vegetarian
From what I heard, he tried being a vegetarian in the early '90s, but he felt too sick, and went back to eating meat.
16. Billie suffered a panic attack and couldn't attend a show on the American Idiot tour.
I know he suffers panic attacks, but I don't know if he wouldn't attend a show on the AI tour because of it....

People get sick and stressed and need a break once in a while...the same thing goes for Billie Joe and the rest of greenday!!!
^ Absolutely. I hate that whenever GD, or any artist, cancels a show, and the media feels the need to create some elaborate story. It never occured to anyone that they might have just needed a day to rest? Or that they may have come down with something as simple as a cold?
Just because they cancel a show doesn't mean they have cancer!
