Website: DJ AM’s death due to accidental overdose
Turntable marvel and would-be ‘drug intervention’ reality show star DJ AM died of an accidental overdose and not suicide, according to aTMZ source.
DJ AM, born Adam Goldstein, developed a dependency of Xanax and other anxiety drugs after he and Travis Barker of Blink-182 survived a plane crash in last September, the website reports.
MTV was to debut Goldstein’s reality show, “Gone Too Far,” in October. In it, he and concerned families staged interventions for drug abusers.
TMZ’s sources indicated that the cause of death will be contributed to crack cocaine and the anxiety drug overdose.
An autopsy conducted Saturday, a day after the celebrity Disc Jockey was found dead, was inconclusive, the Associated Press said Sunday, Aug. 30.
A crack pipe and prescription pills were found in the 36-year-old’s Manhattan apartment.
It may take weeks before toxicology tests results are complete.
Though respected for his deejay skills, Goldstein may be best known for the women who once held his hand.
He has dated singer, actress Mandy Moore and was engaged to reality TV star Nicole Richie. He recently split from another woman.
A slue of celebrities Tweeted about his passing.
“Adam and I were friends since I was 15. He had a heart of gold and was one of the kindest, funniest and most talented men I have ever met,” Paris Hilton wrote.
“I can’t believe this.. i’m in shock. why? why? r.i.p. adam,” Lindsay Lohan wrote on her fairy tale-themed Twitter page.
“DJ AM Rest In Peace…,” P. Diddy wrote.
