Film star Doris Day has been killed off in a new song by the Who, despite being alive and well and living in the USA.

In the new Who song 'Mirror Door', Townshend pays tribute to the stars who have left this mortal earth. The only trouble is, Doris isn't dead yet.

"Howling Wolf, and old Link Wray / Dave Van Ronk and Doris Day / Bobby Darin, Brownie McGhee / Elvis, Buddy and Eddie C" sings Roger Daltrey in the Townshend written song that features on The Who's first studio album is a quarter of a century.

"I was absolutely convinced she was dead" The Who star told London's Daily Express.

Unfortunately, the faux pas was only pointed out to Townshend after the album was pressed and ready for shipping.

The reclusive movie star in now 82 years old. She hasn't worked since her 1971 TV show 'The Doris Day Show' went off the air.

America's sweetheart Doris' major film roles were in the movies 'Please Don't Eat The Daisies', 'Pillow Talk', 'Calamity Jane', and 'The Pajama Game'.
