Two tweets published on Sony Music's Twitter account Monday morning sent Britney Spears fans into a frenzy.
The American label and company's official account pushed a message with the hashtag #RIPBritney.
A message from singer-songwriter Bob Dylan's Twitter account offered condolences immediately after the original announcement, saying, "Rest in peace @britneyspears." Fans speculated his account was hacked, too. The tweet was later deleted.
Both tweets from Sony's account were deleted Monday morning.
A representative for Spears confirmed to CNN on Monday that Spears is "alive and well."
Sony has not commented on the tweets or the hack.
Spears posted a video on Instagram Sunday showing her sons ziplining on Christmas Day.
