Sinead O'Connor is not dead -- in fact she's alive and still ranting on social media hours after reports that she was suicidal in Chicago.
On Friday, the outspoken singer took to Facebook to shoot down claims that she was suicidal -- and also to celebrate Britain's decision to leave the European Union.
The whole story is a bit odd -- apparently, Chicago police received a call from police in Ireland, saying that the singer was on a bridge in the Second City and threatening to jump off of it. The Irish police reportedly said, "Sinead O'Connor called and said 'I'm on a bridge in Chicago and I'm going to jump," and asked the Chicago authorities to check on the "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer.
However, O'Connor was quick to explain the situation, saying, "It's bull---t I jumped off a bridge. "Some stupid b---- up at Swords Garda station [an Irish police station] decided she'd like to throw a bit of false and malicious gossip about is all."
O'Connor said she was not suicidal because she is, "FAR TOO F-----G HAPPY FOR THAT." The controversial star has threatened suicide in the past before -- so this is not out of the real of possibilities given her unstable mental history.
Despite past issues, O'Connor says her end is not night -- and the reason that O'Connor cites her happiness is due to Britain's history-making vote on Thursday to leave the EU, which has been nicknamed "Brexit."
The Irish lady got passionate about her homeland's independence from the UK, writing, "IRELAND IS OFFICIALLY NO LONGER OWNED BY BRITAIN!!!! CONGRATS TO EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD WHO EVER DIED FOR THE CAUSE OF IRISH FREEDOM, AND ALSO TO ALL THOSE INCLUDING MYSELF, WHO HAVE BEEN PERSECUTED MERCILESSLY BY THE IRISH SO CALLED FREE-STATE FOR HAVING DECLARED SUPPORT FOR SINN FÉIN AND THE REPUBLICAN MOVEMENT."
Yikes!
The 49-year-old also ranted about her support for Irish republican politician and president of Sinn Féin, Garard Adams -- and said some other stuff.
Umm Erin Go Braugh?!
