Did SZA get hit by a train?
SZA has not been hit by a train and is not dead or injured.
The singer is perfectly well, and has posted on her Instagram Story multiple times in the past 24 hours.
All the rumours are false, and she has simply fallen victim to yet another celebrity hoax.
In this instance, people weren’t actually referring to a train, they were talking about something else…
The train hoax explained
The SZA hoax claimed that there was a video that showed the singer being ran on by a train. However, this is not true.
There is no SZA train video, and the whole thing is actually a vulgar sex joke.
It was seemingly sparked by a 2020 article which claimed she was ran over by a train before she became famous.
The article discussed beef between SZA and Drake before claiming she was “ran on by a train”.
On the internet, “ran on by a train” doesn’t actually mean someone was in a train accident.
It’s actually a slang phrase that refers to when multiple men have sex with a woman one after the other.
