Yet again, rumors have circulated that Macaulay Culkin, 34, died.

However, the HOME ALONE star confirmed that he is, in fact, still alive. On Twitter, many fans had already started to grieve with heart-warming tributes to the actor. In April, there were other rumors that he was dead, but his reps cleared that up quickly.

On Saturday, Culkin's band, The Pizza Underground, will participate in the Fun Fun Fun Fest at the Belmont in Austin, Texas.

To make fun of the hoax, the band posted a photo to their Twitter (below), saying,

"Weekend at bernies with @anchovywarhol #greenroom"
