London, Aug 29 (ANI): Adam ‘DJ Am’ Goldstein - the celebrity disc jockey known for dating starlets and surviving a horrific plane crash - was found dead yesterday in his New York apartment, after suffering a reported drug overdose.
According to TMZ.com, cops found prescription drug bottles inside DJ AM’s residence on Lafayette Street in Lower Manhattan after the 36-year-old’s lifeless body spotted face-down in his bed at around 5:23 pm by a friend, who was concerned he hadn’t heard from the performer in several days.
The New York Post reports that drug paraphernalia was found in the apartment.
The star, who has dated Nicole Richie and Mandy Moore, battled drug addiction in the past.
His celeb friends were quick to issue tributes via social networking site, Twitter, reports The Sun.
Lindsay Lohan: “I can’t believe this.. i’m in shock. why? why? r.i.p. adam.”
P.Diddy simply said: “DJ AM rest in peace.”
Kelly Osbourne wrote: “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!”
Shanna Moakler, whose ex-husband Travis Barker survived a fatal plane crash with Goldstein last year, was among the first to Tweet, writing: “My deepest condolences for DJ AM, you were a great artist and will be severely missed. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends.” (ANI)
