NO AM FOR DJ
Sat, 29/08/2009 - 11:06 by HM writer
DJ AM aka Adam Goldstein has been found dead in his New York apartment after an alleged overdose. The 36-year-old, who miraculously survived a plane crash with Blink 182's Travis Barker last year, was reportedly found "face down" in his bed by police...

Goldstein, a former member of Crazy Town who famously dated Nicole Richie and Mandy Moore, had recently admitted that he tried to commit suicide when he was 24 while high on crack cocaine.

A police source said:

"He was found in his bedroom, in bed, face down."

His rep has released the following statement:

"Adam 'DJ AM' Goldstein was found deceased this afternoon in his New York City apartment. The circumstances surrounding his death are unclear. Out of respect for his family and loved ones, please respect their privacy at this time."

His death comes almost a year after he and Barker survived when the Learjet they were flying in burst into flames. They both suffered severe burns and the four other people in the plane died.

And as always, in time of tragedy, celebrities have taken to their Twitter pages to Tweet messages of condolences.

Lindsay Lohan (have you found those jewels yet?) wrote:

"I can't believe this.. i'm in shock. why? why? r.i.p. adam."

P.Diddy wrote:

"DJ AM rest in peace."

Kelly Osbourne also put:

"I just cant believe that adam (dj.am) is gone i dont want to believe it im in shock. he was one of the most genuine people i have ever met!"

    Kelly Osbourne talking about "genuine" as if she would have the first idea of what the word means...

  • Found face down, you say? Hmmm. Arse stuff ahoy.
    And I don't think anyone in the "Who can tweet the most grief" competition even remembered he existed until now.
    "I can't believe this.. i'm in shock. why? why?" Because he took more drugs than his body was able to handle, you dozy bitch, didn't you hear the first time?
