All of those rumors and innuendo about Jay-Z being in a plane crash this morning -- are not true.

The BV Newswire has confirmed -- via an Island Def Jam staffer -- that the hip-hop impresario is "alive and well."

About an hour ago, TMZ.com broke an "exclusive" story that "rumors have been swirling this morning that rapresario Jay-Z (aka Shawn Carter) was in a plane crash this morning."

"A small plane registered to a citizen of Dublin, GA crashed near Asheville, NC in the Smoky Mountains. The FAA tells TMZ that the four-seat propeller plane did go down this morning, but could not provide any additional details."

The site just updated its original story, noting: "TMZ has confirmed that Jay-Z WAS NOT aboard the plane. The three aboard the plane were white men."

Shocked they didn't say it was Michael Jackson.

See this ludicrous-ness here.

Some on the Internet must have 'The Sixth Sense' because they are always seeing dead people.
