Hugh Hefner and the currently #winning Charlie Sheen are not dead, despite recent Internet rumors. Hefner, 85, is still alive and thriving, and did not suffer from a heart attack.However, that didn't stop a Playmate from believing the rumors and speaking out about his life.

But good old Twitter came in hand once again, and the 85-year-old Playboy set the record straight by tweeting, The rumors of my death are, as Mark Twain observed in a similar situation, greatly exaggerated. I'm very much alive & kicking.

Also in the rumor circuit today was a claim that Charlie Sheen has passed away. He too took to Twitter to reassure his fans, and his foes that he is in-fact alive. The actor wrote, Warlock: long nap...very much alive.

And as reports swirl about that these two celebs are dead, well, other reports are circulating that Sheen's career is also not dead. The actor is reportedly #winning right now with a new TV show in the works.

Producer Joe Roth, who has worked with Sheen numerous times, is in negotiation to work with Sheen again in a role similar to Jack Nicolson's Anger Management role.
