Did "Hannah Montana" star Miley Cyrus really get her YouTube channel hacked?

That's true! The teen queen and her friend, Mandy Jiroux, operate the "mileymandy" channel on YouTube, which fell victim to a hacker -- who posted a hoax post claiming that Miley had been killed in a drunk driving accident!

The faux post read: "Hey guys, this is Mandy and I have some very sad news. We're hurt to tell everyone this, but Miley died this morning after being hit by a drunk driver. Miley told us if anything ever happened to her then we should let her fans know first before the public. R.I.P. honey, we miss you so much."

Jiroux took to her MySpace page Sunday to set the record straight on reports that Cyrus had died. "Someone hacked the Miley and Mandy YouTube account and we can't get back into it just yet!!" Mandy wrote. "MILEY IS OK!!"

Miley's latest project, the animated film "Bolt," opens in theatres November 21.
