DJ AM has died

Cops tell us DJ AM -- also known as Adam Goldstein -- was found dead this afternoon in New York City.

NBC NY has confirmed it.

So sad, particularly the fact that he survived a plane crash and died of an overdose.

Oh goodness. R.I.P.

I couldn't avoid thinking about Final Destination.

When life doesn't get people, people often get themselves.

You're not the only person who has thought that.

The "celeb" death toll for 2009 has been crazy so far. This summer alone has been hit hard.

I was my understanding that he was a recovering alcoholic. It's not uncommon for them to have relapses, especially with drugs.

He died the same day as Senator Kennedy.

This is sad, especially in light of his obvious guilt over surviving the plane crash.

Awww that's awesome. When I was in Vegas, AM was the DJ at Rain. He didn't stay the whole time, but it was probably THE best time I had in a club ever. Not sure if he was a regular DJ there or just a guest DJ, but I would have gone to any club he was DJ'ing at.

RIP DJ AM

True...plus he lived through a pretty traumatic event, which probably didn't help. I give a lot of credit to people who recover and are able to avoid relapses, it can't be easy.

He was Nicole Richie's BabyDaddy, right? (Or is that someone else I'm thinking of - I'm having a stupid moment).

He's not her babydaddy, but they were engaged at one point.

Babydaddy = Joel Madden from Good Charlotte.

That's right. My brain just needed a kick, but I knew he was linked to Nicole at one point.
