Zach Braff – Facebook Proved I was alive

So Zach Braff, star of Scrubs was on Conan last night. I am not a Scrubs fan, or really much of a Zach Braff fan, but he dropped a gem last night. Conan and Braff were talking about the fake death rumors that were circulating the internet about Braff earlier this year. Conan asked him how you clear up something like that? Braff responded with:

I went on Facebook…You know… You can quickly be like, hey I’m alive!

This was hilarious. He then went on to talk about how he and Co-Stars of scrubs had a little fun with proving his vitality on the internet.

Comedy aside, Braff is absolutely right. Facebook is a great medium to communicate with fans and the “real world”. Whether it’s interacting with fans, or proving that you haven’t committed suicide, Facebook and social media in general is a tool that all stars should adapt to connect with their fans.

So, well-played Zach, happy to still have you here.
