Jaden Smith Targetted in False Death Claims

A representative for Will Smith's actor son Jaden has blasted sick internet rumours suggesting the Karate Kid had died in a snowboarding accident.

The 12 year old has become the latest victim in an ongoing celebrity death hoax, which has 'killed off' a number of stars on the slopes of Switzerland in recent months, including Adam Sandler, Owen Wilson, Charlie Sheen and Eddie Murphy.

But Jaden Smith's spokesperson insists the youngster is alive and well, telling TMZ.com, "It's absolutely not true."
