J.K. Rowling nixes rumors of official MySpace, Bebo profiles Popular (2881)

J.K. Rowling has updated the rumor sectionopens in new window of her website to inform fans that she does not have a profile on any social networking sites, including MySpace or Bebo.

The rumor is that one of the many J.K. Rowling pages MUST be the real Jo, and she replies:

No, sorry, not even one of them, though they do seem to lead very exciting lives, these fake J K Rowlings. I like to imagine them partying with all my imaginary friends ('a close friend confided...') in some bright and shiny alternative universe. But meanwhile, on planet earth, the dull human J K Rowling hasn't got, and has never had, a profile on MySpace, Bebo or any similar site.

Oh please! i never believed any of those "JKR" pages were real. If she joined one of these sites, she would obviously use another name.

I couldn't imagine JK Rowling having one of those type of profiles. She has enough to do without having a MySpace page to keep up with.

Honestly, I don't understand why anyone would actually believe it in the first place. Why would J.K. have a Bebo account?!

Hehe..loved the way J.K.R buries all the rumours.I always knew the ones on myspace and bebo were fake and they must be feeling like fools after reading this.

It seems like everyone has one of those these days. I'm glad to see Jo didn't get sucked into that silly nonsense like some of my classmates did. It's not even fun, really. It's be fun if she did, though, because I'm sure she wouldn't be on there a lot but would probably post updates about her life or something.
