DJ AM Dead
By Krystal Clark
This is a sad, sad day for music. Popular celebrity DJ Adam Goldstein aka DJ AM has been found dead. The 36 year old’s body was found on the seventh floor of an apartment building at 215 Lafayette in SoHo. The details surrounding his unexpected death are still sketchy. Sources are saying it may have been a drug overdose.
According to the NYDailyNews, Goldstein’s body “was discovered surrounded by drug paraphernalia inside his $2 million Tribeca pad about 5:20 p.m.” Throughout his adult life the DJ AM dealt with an on again off again relationship with drug addiction, obesity and depression. He landed in rehab and after beating his drug problem, got gastric bypass surgery.
Here are a few fan and friend reactions to his untimely death…
Just last year he escaped a fatal plane crash with severe burns along with fellow musician Travis Barker (Blink-182). Barker’s ex-wife Shanna Moakler recently sent out her condolences to Goldstein’s family over their unexpected loss.
“You were a great artist and will be severely missed. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.”
