Hmmm...so I guess those super massive black holes they KNOW FOR A FACT exist in the center of galaxies are just fake too.

She didn't say black holes don't exist, she said stars dying can't form them.
Geeze learn some reading comprehension
ETA:
Okay well the article claims she DID say they can't exist, but her explanation just says stars dying can't create them

I'm more skeptical about the article. It claims in the bullet summary that her findings say that black holes do not exist. Yet they never quote that anywhere is the narrative. In fact, they only list her explanation about her finding that star death would not lead to black hole formation.

OP's thread title is wrong. She never said black holes didn't exist, just that the idea of a star collapsing on itself and creating a black hole is implausible.
Not sure why people are getting upset over it. It's a scientific finding and she says she has the math to prove it. Why not wait and find out if she's right?

You use "fact" too loosely. There is much evidence pointing to the existence of black holes but only interpretation of evidence leads us to "believe" in black holes actually existing. You cannot see, touch, smell, hear, etc. a black hole. Makes it hard to know for a fact it is there. There could be unknown forces that create the evidence and we just can't see past what we assume at this point.
Singularities are always areas where knowing for a "fact" is just not realistic. The existence of a singularity defies what we do know about physics. There is always some small variable that prevents them from existing that was either missed or assumed irrelevant at one point. Singularities occur based in pure theory and it is a theory that is terrible at explaining the universe at this point.
