Judd Nelson, of "The Breakfast Club" fame, is not dead.
A news outlet that announced his death was part of a hoax, according to The L.A. Times.
A site with a URL that made it look like Fox News reported that Nelson, who played John Bender in "The Breakfast Club" and Alec Newbary in "St. Elmo's Fire," had died at 55.
However, Nelson's agent Gregg Klein sent a picture of Nelson to the Times. He was reading the newspaper in the photo.
Nelson's manager, Jean-Pirre Henraux, said he wasn't sure how the rumor got started.
Not only is Nelson still alive, he's in "perfect" shape, Henraux told the Times. Nelson will appear in an episode of "Empire."
