Michael J. Fox has been trending consistently on Twitter on Monday, Sept. 22. This has caused a big stir and even death rumors regarding the beloved "Back To The Future" actor. As best as we can surmise, Michael J. Fox began to trend within any particular reason. Fans have been guessing and left to propose their own theories.

Michael J. Fox rose to fame from his iconic role as Marty McFly from the "Back To The Future" trilogies. In 1991, Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and finally announced his condition to the public in 1998. Eventually, Fox became a major advocate to Parkinsons research and founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation.

The slightest notion of Michael J. Fox dead sent an enormous shockwave across social media. In August, we reported Robin Williams was found dead from suicide. Later, Robin Williams' wife Susan Schneider revealed that the late comedian was secretly diagnosed with early symptoms of Parkinsons Disease.

"Robin's sobriety was intact and he was brave as he struggled with his own battles of depression, anxiety as well as early stages of Parkinson's disease, which he was not yet ready to share publicly," Schneider said. "It is our hope in the wake of Robin's tragic passing, that others will find the strength to seek the care and support they need to treat whatever battles they are facing so they may feel less afraid."

Upon learning Robin Williams condition, Michael J. Fox responded with a heartfelt message on Twitter: "Stunned to learn Robin had PD. Pretty sure his support for our Fdn predated his diagnosis. A true friend; I wish him peace."

Thankfully, the death rumors was merely a hoax. Michael J. Fox also returns to the popular TV series "The Goodwife," which just aired yesterday, Sept. 21.
