SO YOU MAY have seen the video of a girl twerking for her boyfriend, and then falling through a coffee table and setting herself on fire.
No? Well, let us remedy that. It’s worth a watch:
The video was reproduced around the world when it emerged last week. Currently, a search for its title ‘Worst Twerk Fail Ever’ on Google News – Google News, mind – brings up nearly 3,000 results.
Sadly, it’s all a fake. And not just any fake, but a fake orchestrated by US talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.
Here’s the *full* version:
“We didn’t send it to any TV stations. I didn’t tweet it, we didn’t send it to any websites,” Kimmel said. “We just put it on the internet.”
He then compounded the dishonour by showing a compendium of all the news outlets that reported the video as real. One headlined it The Dangers Of Twerking.
The internet, ladies and gentlemen! Let’s have a big hand.
