Kris Jenner is dead. At least that's what Twitter says.

The mom of the Kardashian clan is alive and well according to GossipCop. Jenner is just another victim of a Twitter death hoax.

'RIP Kris Jenner' is at the top of the Twitter trend charts all over the world as thousands of people discuss the rumor. However, the rumor seems to be high on the trending list as thousands of Twitter users ask why it is trending. The Kardashian mom and manager is just yet another victim of the Twitter death hoax.

Twitter has a tendency to kill celebrities every couple of weeks.Rumors that Robert Pattinson died arised shortly after news that Kristen Stewart cheated on him broke. Stars like Eddie Murphy have 'died' several times according to the social media site. Even bigger stars like Adele, Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey and Taylor Swift have been victims of Twitter deaths.

The latest Kris Jenner death may have been started by the site Inagist, which has a message that says "Kris Jenner died of head trauma. Story is developing."

The false death reports quickly spread around Twitter. Now the rumor has become a trend on Twitter.

As one user explains it, @shelby_ellis :PEOPLE OF TWITTER: When you ask, "Why is RIP Kris Jenner trending?" it is because you put the phrase into a tweet. So stop asking.

Some of the most popular tweets on the subject :

@heyimconner :why is RIP Kris Jenner trending? i know for a fact she isn't dead, i keep up with her family every sunday.

@realabrahamlim: Sad how RIP Kris Jenner is trending when she isn't dead. She is someone's mother, sister, and friend, you know. Let's have some feelings.

@DepressedDarth: RIP Kris Jenner? Twitter kills more people than the Death Star.

@KhloeObsession: That awkward moment when RIP Kris Jenner is trending and she doesn't even know that she died....

Jenner has her own Twitter account, but she did not address the issue. In fact, some of her latest tweets seem to show she is alive and well and enjoying a recent trip.

Earlier on Monday she posted photos of her European vacation and wrote "Having an incredible time in Europe!" The reality star mom has recently visited Istanbul, Turkey, Paris, France and Monaco.

The Kardashian sisters were tweeting and posting to their personal blogs on Monday night while 'RIP Kris Jenner' was trending. Not one of them mentioned their mother dying.

Put the RIP rumors to rest. Kris Jenner is just fine.
