And there a a slew of sites reporting that it did take place. Most likely they did not check facts before writing the story.

Following on-going rumours that Scarlett Johansson would appear with the newly reunited Jesus and Mary Chain, the actress did make an appearance with the group last night (April 26).
Details are sketchy, but Uncut believes that the singer performed back up vocals to "Sometimes Always" on stage at the Glass House in Pomona, California - the 1994 song from the album "Stoned & Dethroned" that originally had vocals provided by Mazzy Star's Hope Sandoval.
The Jesus & Mary Chain are set to play Coachella music festival tonight (April 27), and Johannson will be appearing with the group again.
More details about last night's J&MC set will be published here on uncut.co.uk later today.
