Peter Minshall has been the victim of an internet celebrity death hoax. So, Peter Minshall’s death news is false and unfounded because he is still alive and well in February 2023. Celebrities are occasionally subjected to rumors of their own death. Often, the rumor spreads quickly, and people express their condolences on social media without checking the facts.
Bill Murray, Jerry Springer, Bill Nye, Jon Bon Jovi, Joe Rogan, William H. Macy, and Jimmy Fallon are among the celebrities who lived to hear the news of their death. The same thing happened to Trinidadian carnival artist Peter Minshall, who had to confirm his own survival.
Minshall’s Facebook page addressed the widespread rumor that he was dead and assured his fans that he was still alive. Minshall’s death became so widely publicized that the state-owned national news agency TTT also reported his death. And, just hours after the fake news of the legendary carnival artist’s death spread, people and news portals posted numerous tributes and obituaries online without fact-checking.
Trinidad Express published an article titled “Who started this rumor?” to clarify that the 81-year-old was alive. The owner of Medulla Art Gallery, Martin Mouttet, confirmed to The Express that the legendary mas man Peter Minshall was “alive and well.”
He went on to say that he had just spoken with Minshall on the phone and that the mas man was also aware of the fake news. Many close friends confirmed Peter’s good health and urged the Trinidadian media to double-check the facts before publishing.
More Information on Peter Minshall
Peter Minshall is a legendary Trinidad and Tobago carnival artist. On July 16, 1941, he was born in Georgetown, Guyana. Peter’s parents, on the other hand, moved to Trinidad when he was young, and his father worked as a cartoonist. Minshall was exposed to Carnival as a child because he grew up in Port of Spain, a carnival hotspot.
Peter, who was fascinated by the carnival lifestyle, made his first costume when he was 13 years old. He attended Queen’s Royal College before moving to London to study Theatre Design at the Central School of Art and Design. “From the Land of the Hummingbird,” which he designed for his adopted sister Sherry-Ann Guy (Coelho) to wear for Carnival 1974, was one of his first famous costumes.
It took five weeks, 12 people, and 104 feathers made of 150 different fabrics to complete. The costume became an instant sensation and a significant icon in the Trinidad Carnival. Minshall then began creating other creative and appealing costumes, which became the focal point of several carnivals.
