Aug 28 2009DJ AM found dead

wow. that sucks.

Well played indeed!.. Druggies.. gotta love em

wow, that's not good.

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

that comment just ended my browsing of the superficial. Well played. You are disgusting.

Well played, indeed; FOLD!

Oh my gosh. That sucks. I loved this dude. Why is everyone dying in 2009? Sheehs

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."
That is incredibly inappropriate and insensitive in the light of such unfortunate circumstances. I believe those comments should be retracted.

JD## - good - leave and take your emotional B.S to Perez

technically, third. didn't he have gastric bypass?

@ #4, suck it up, you big fuckin puss. assuming he died of drug overdose, how fucking pathetic is that? he doesn't deserve sympathy.

How is that inappropriate to say? If I survived a plane crash I could have died in, you best believe I'm gonna do my best to live life the best/cleanest way that I can, cause the bottom lines is, IT WAS ANOTHER CHANCE AT LIFE- And how many people get that granted? Agree with 8.

His "music" suck, don't really give a shit about him.

#7 -
unfortunate circumstances? Totally self inflicted. Feel sorry for those who know and loved him... but sometimes, you choose your own fate.

Fish - don't retract shit.

Burn in hell Superficial. You just won the award for most distasteful comment of the year. Buhbye motherfucker.

So sad. This is so in line with the story of FINAL DESTINATION.

honestly fuck off with the "well played" comment. normally i dig your commentary, and normally you have the tact when people die to not be so uncouth. So well played to you, dumbass. he was an awesome dude and if you had ever met him, you would know. but instead you've lost another reader.

i'm with you #4.

MSTRKRFT is garbage

glad this putz is dead. serves him right for having bad taste. MORE OXYGEN FOR ME!

i think i will make a list of everyone that died today, then take a big shit and wipe my ass with it.

stupid dead people

Its inappropriate because it's making huge assumptions. So drug paraphernalia was found? Don't be so quick to condemn the man until the C.O.D. is known. That's insensitive.

prol nothing i hate more than celebrity la or eurotrash djs who take all the credit for music that they didnt make and did nothing more than put on a turn table and pretend that their nob turning is actually doing anything, especially when the music is shit anyway

Final Destination...? Death finally catches up with him again.

#4 and 7

Change your tampons and have a drink.

DJs don't always make music, most of them just play others' music and get paid for it. What was his claim to fame, dating Nicole Ritchie? Who cares? There's probably a thousand people who die from OD every day.

When you're reckless, there are consequences. Why should I feel sorry for his loss of life, when obviously he didn't care about it himself?

Yeah, it was pretty damn tasteless. He was pretty badly burned, wasn't he? Who knows what kind of emotional toll that plane crash and its consequent injuries took on him. He may have been dealing with a ton of shit.

Look at that picture he was already looking like week-old dead shit and he got fat again.
Didnt everyone date him? Mandy Moore and Nicole Ritchie?

Well played indeed. Pathetic.

Nicely done

wow, that last line offended even me. and i'm usually the one who is "too early". surprising.

Comment is appropriate. A drug overdose is accidental suicide.

I am never more agreed with The Superficial.
second chance are meant to be deserved...

I just love how everyone is telling SW to retract statements, and to apologize, yet they are still commenting and reading this web site.

10 bucks says that the opposed beings return to the web site within the week.

Keep up the WONDERFUL job of keeping us informed of celebrities, SW. I don't know how I would possibly MAKE IT through a slow work day without this web site and Geekologie.

LOLZ! One less douchebag is that much more air for the rest of us to breathe!

#24 "Why should I feel sorry for his loss of life, when obviously he didn't care about it himself?" ----If only drug addiction/abuse were that simple. How unfortunate that you feel free to assume so much.

#11 "If I survived a plane crash I could have died in, you best believe I'm gonna do my best to live life the best/cleanest way that I can"-----Uh, yeah. that would be ideal. Wouldda been great.
...But how do you know that didn't contribute to his drug use? Last I checked, have you ever been in a fiery plane crash that left two of your best friends dead and you suffering horrible burns?

Superficial, you're the funniest I know, but this was neither funny, nor tasteful, nor decent. Hope you're able to sleep tonight. And hopefully when you pass away someday no one makes such a shitty comment as you did.

what really tragic is that there are thousands more trendy useless hipsters waiting to take his place

DJ D.O.AM

So your telling me you just took what GOD gave you again and basically threw it back up in his face. Way to go stupid. Maybe he shouldve died the first time and GOD shouldve used that gift of life on someone else might of appreciated it more than this dumb ash. Rest In Hell stupid.

i agree, change your tampons and have a drink,
ups to the superficial for having the balls to not crawl all up his ass like everyone else will.

This is fucking pathetic. He gets a 2nd chance at life and this is what he does? GO FUCK YOURSELF! How many good people have each and everyone of us lost or have had taken from us? Did they have a 2nd chance? Nope! Well played indeed. Don't retract shit.

Another loser bites the dust - big fucking deal. Move on.

@34

"#24 "Why should I feel sorry for his loss of life, when obviously he didn't care about it himself?" ----If only drug addiction/abuse were that simple. How unfortunate that you feel free to assume so much."

LMAO. Is that a serious comment or a joke? Its unfortunate that I don't feel sorry for people who, on their own will, decide to do something that they know will lead to their inevitably predictable death? There's a reason they teach people not to do drugs since elementary school. If you aren't smart enough to even get that lesson of life, then, by all means...

What's even worse is that you expect me to care for parasites, who contribute nothing valuable to society and leech on others (including you and I) for financial and emotional support. Yeah, drug addiction is not a laughing matter, and I feel no remorse for people who choose to take the path of slow suicide while dragging down everyone else around them.

he was suffering from survivor's guilt, and probably became addicted to the pain meds he was on from the burns he suffered during the crash... I was a huge fan of this site, checking daily but after reading that insensitive comment i think i will stick with Dlisted for now on, at least they know how to be respectful when posting about someone's death!

He survived a deadly plane crash. Chances are he has been on pain meds ever since... it could have just been accidental. We don't know yet... hopefully he had good judgement and it was an accidental OD. ?? Maybe he killed himself? A lot of people who survive a deadly accident feel guilt and don't recover... whoknows.

This is great news.

Who supplied the drugs to him? Time to start tracking who is supplying Hollywood.

The people that have a problem with what Fish said are idiots. He's absolutely right. Thus dipshit was given a second chance at life after a plane crash where most of the passengers died and he goes and fucks up his chance doing drugs and o.d'ing on them. I dont feel sorry for him at all. He should have taken better care of himself. No ones fault but his own.

@41

You obviously need a wake up call to how common drug addiction is....

#44 - you dont have drug paraphernalia just laying around the apartment because you're addicted to a simple thing like pain meds. My guess is he died from heroin.

Yes, track them so we can tax them to dig us out of this hope and change shit we have going on.

I just can't feel bad for druggies. Hope it was worth it, dude.

Yah, I gotta' agree w/ the what the 2nd (or 3rd) commenter says: someone died. Do not post bullshit like that. Have some respect for him. He was a human being being—w/ a family, and people that loved him. So, just don't do things like that.

Damn, yet Lindsey lives!? Why does this nice guy have to do something stupid and die as a result? PLEASE PLEASE LiLo be next!! or how about Spidey!? Preferable both!!! YIPEEE!!! Next time I hear of a celebrity death, PLEASE let it be LiLo or / and Spidey!!!

Well I wouldn't stop following The Superficial because of that comment, though I do think it's a little harsh. We don't know what kind of pain medications he might have been on because of the crash (and may have still been taking/have become addicted to), and we don't know what kind of mental trauma he may have been suffering because of the event. Still, I have to agree, it's no reason to kill oneself, should this be (as it looks) suicide.
I'll still miss his fun mixtapes with Travis.

@48

That's irrelevant. Au contraire to the comment from ShameOnYou, drug addiction is very simple. You start doing drugs, get addicted, and inevitably die from them, all while being a liability to everyone around you. There is nothing more pathetic than that. The fact that there are many people addicted to drugs just shows that a lot of people are very stupid, but, that's not news.

i read the Superficial because of the distasteful comments! i'm not a fan of dj am but if hard drugs was the cause of his death, then he simply got what was coming. if it isn't, then too bad, so sad, another DJ will take his place. thanks for the memories!

no, you know what? it was well played. jack ass overdosed.. and everyone is whining and moaning.. @ how sad it was? WTF?! people - he skipped out on death from a plane crash.... gets a second chance @ life.. and then does this. I don't care if it was RX or if it was crack and heroin.

at least someone had the balls to call him on it and say well played.

And thus I do claim another talentless hack.

Thanks for the props Fish, you'll last through the decade.

i guess nicole r. dodged a bullet......such is life........

i guess nicole r. dodged a bullet......such is life........

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

That last line is AWESOME!

the dude has children ... enough said. his death may not be tragic to you personally but i'm sure it will be to his family. personal opinions aside, feel bad for them...

I am triumphant!!!

And thats is why the drugs should not be legalized... how many people has to die to realize that it is necesary to promote a healthy life style?... not everyone is so "mentally strong" to consume drugs (like brad pitt or megan fox) and not to become into a suicide drug addict, remember that stuff alters your mind in a unique way, not because your friend happens to be just fine means that you will be ok too... I don´t know if I explain myself...sorry for my english... :(

Hey! E. Kennedy did it and lasted way longer with his second chance. Mary Jo, not so much. Man up DJAM! You pissed away a chance, most of us will never get.

sorry that last comment came about 3x.........lol

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

that comment just ended my browsing of the superficial. Well played. You are disgusting.

x2

that was not well played on the superficial writer's part. very classy,

my guess is that "steve-o"is next in line.........yes? no? who could argue that? LOL.....

i think people should live life like they want to. if he survived an accident, that doesn't mean he had a "SECOND CHANCE". at least he died doing what he enjoyed doing. overdose is also an accident, or maybe he just didn't wanted to live, who knows? death is death, regardless of the circumstances and, this is very sad.

the irony and amazingness lies simply in the complexity of the circumstances: an airplane crash vs OD with very little difference of time in between.

i guess this person was unfortunate not because he died, we all die, but because he had a problem with addiction, that's the sad thing.

i will continue reading the superficial because i never take it seriously, never. this website is no BBC, even those enterprises have said stupid things once, i'm sure, and?

you may find an analogy of this case with many others. the movie final destination comes to mind.

condolences to the relatives and the musical scene.

hey ROB..........have a sense of humor and dont take everything you read to heart ya goob

lol @ everyone with bunched panties. Dying of a drug OD is "not classy", however you want to spin it.

ya i'm sure the emotional well-being of his children was his number one priority when surrounding himself with drug paraphenalia. the appropriate amount of time to dwell on this story is to read the headline, take a second, maybe mutter under your breath "sucks"- if you're a fan. yes, obviously his friends and family are going to be extremely effected by this, but you're not his friends or family. the website is called the superficial, let's not be contradictory with the tears and sniffles.

That last line was so superficial. All the whiny crybabies that don't like it will still be reading tomorrow. Don't change a thing, Fishman ... the internet needs folks like you to put crap like this in perspective.

Look I used to have ZERO sympathy for addicts, my father was one and so I never touched alcohol drugs cigarettes anything, they all destroy your body, but if you want to judge DJam then you better be in the18-20 BMI range, have zero debt, never smoke, never drink to excess never do drugs and never do ANY risky dumbass things. VERY few people fall into that category.

I was healthy my whole life had an olympic level 18 BMI exercised two hours a day never touched drugs/alcohol/cigarettes ate all natural food, lived smart simple and clean and in my early twenties got seriously sick in a way that I had zero control over and when I went to the hospital and saw all the people who put themselves there while I and many kids and adults who lived smart were sick and dying through no fault of their own I felt infuriated.

Then I realised that it's even harder for them becuase they are their own worst enemy, people often have no pity for them, but addiction is genetic and they didn't choose to be addicts, yes they have some control over their actions, but the majority of people who are addicts never overcome them which means it must be quite a hellish nightmare, My father drank himself to death and I now have more compassion for people like him. Truthfully I'd rather be sick the way I am even if I may never get better than be sick and dying as an addict I just finally realized that being an addict really must be hell on earth you are your own worst enemy you are destroying yourself and people blame you because they think you can control it. If it was so easy to control people would never be addicts to begin with and people would be able to overcome it, but sadly with more and more people seem to end up this way. He was once obese so I think he really just traded one addiction for another.

I feel sad for him and for his family, it's easy to be judge, but when you can't manage to quit something that's killing you that's gotta suck. But none of you know what I'm talking about because your all super lean clean living folks right???

If you think it's so easy to quit drugs then why are you still overweight? Why haven't you finished school or suceeded in your career? Why do you smoke? Why can't you stop drinking? Why can't you stop spending yourself into debt? Why can't you stop having unprotected sex? Why do you drive recklessly? The list goes on. Very few people are vice free, if you are that's awesome, thanks for making the world a better place, if not have the decency to admit it and find a little compassion no one knows how they will go and if yo'\ll go in an embarassing shameful way.

<<not a tear or a sniffle here..........LOL

I still don't know who this guy is.

hey sad..........thanks for the speech.........u feel better? yes? then u got what u wanted and so did dj..........what comes around goes around......

wah. this classy guy is the one who sued the deceased pilots' FAMILIES for pain and suffering of the plane crash he SURVIVED. i say karma is a bitch. the comment is fine and you're all whiny babies.

He died. Yes, RIP. However, he put this on himself. Whether it was suicide or drug overdose. He should have appreciated his life after the plane crash... but look what he has done now. No turning back. Whether it's his 3rd chance or 10th, he's had one too many, obviously.

If he has family/friends that he loves and loves him back, why would he put himself on the line for death? The PLANE CRASH was a HUGE wake up call, was it not? It made Travis and his family look at life a whooooooole new way. Life didn't mean much to him I guess...

Wow. I've never read so many heartless comments in one thread. Maybe you should all barely survive a plane crash that kills four of your friends, and then see how easy it is for you to recover. Easy to sit here and talk sanctimonious shit when you're behind the anonymity of a computer; you'd have a harder time pushing this bullshit to someone face-to-face.

You lost another reader, Superficial.

Simply because drug paraphernalia was found doesn't mean it was a drug overdose.

Cause of death at this point is unknown.

People die from natural causes at 36 too. At least wait for post mortem results before shooting off at the mouth.

Way too low under the belt until facts are released. Cold.

So sad for the families who called this young guy dad, brother, son, uncle, cousin.... whatever.... but the guy died with drug paraphenalia around him. So the fans or the general public who have no emotional connection to him can easily say he was insane for messing with his life with potentially life threatening drugs and should feel free to call him an idiot. Distasteful.... yes.....truthful.... absolutely.

Retract the statement if it turns out later on that he didn't die of a self inflicted drug overdose.

Otherwise, it's completely appropriate.

I'm glad #4 and #15 have taken it upon themselves to not remove themselves because no one wants to read what emo fuckwits have to say.

Bag...of...douche

life's a bitch.....then u deal w/it...guess he took the wrong path

sorry.... did it twice. But did forget to mention he won't be able to sue the airlines now.....damn... no mo' money for drugs.

it is what it is and u all know it.........dont pretend its not......

Ok, it's sad to know the man died and all, but what a fucking MORON. He survives a plane crash and gets a second chance at life, right? So what does he do? He pisses it away on drugs. Has a better life than 80% of the country and obviously couldn't appreciate how FORTUNATE he was.

But nonetheless, my sincere condolences to his family. :(

Ah Renee you're fat aren't you??? Don't worry you keep judging him as you pack on the pounds and develop medical problems. How on earth does what goes around comes around apply to sad, by all accounts from what they said they lived a great life and despite their hardships have compassion for others when most would jsut pity themselves. I highly doubt you live a clean vice free life so shut it and don't ever assume you won't end up with such a sad end.

Wondering why you're not getting anywhere better with your writing SW? Posts like this just might be the answer you're looking for.

That last line is harsh. Superficial writer has turned into a cunt in the last month or two. Didn't they get divorced or something (LOL FAGGOT)

I just want to add, for those who are all of a sudden pissed at the authors supposed "insensitivity", where the fuck were you when MJ died?

I have to say....the world is filled with people who either step up to the plate and make something of themselves or who are ultimately pulled down by life and can't come to grips with anything. People have survived WAY worse than a plane crash and have done amazing things with their lives. Why he couldn't pull it together, we will probably never know.

A crack pipe and pills were found at the scene...even if he didn't die from a drug overdose, he must have known he was potentially tossing his life down a toilet. What a sad waste of human life....people (especially in Hollywood) are too ready to pull all kinds of dumb shit the minute things get rough.

People should speak how they feel. No reason to retract anything.

If you want a censored opinion go to that perez site. That weirdo will talk trash and retract it all day for you censored types.

I am impressed that the SW had the backbone to take a reasonable and sincere position on something like this. Being killed by a self-inflicted drug overdose is a pointless and stupid way to die. Surviving that plane crash was a miracle, but to die for a preventable reason is just idiocy. As the very old Knight Templar stated, "He chose poorly."

lol @ the "fat card" thats all you got?? thats what you turn to?? come on......you gotta have something better than THAT dont u? i call it like i see it.......sorry u cant handle all that.....as for a clean vice free life.......do any of us have that........no i dont think so........but how you put it out there tells EVERYTHING......dont take every little thing so seriously.......!!

He had been sober for 9 years. But that plane crash left him with post traumatic stress and he just broke up with his girlfriend. I dont blame the dude for turning to drugs. Some people must just have brilliant lives to not understand stuff like this.

Look, he was probably in chronic pain since the crash and became addicted to prescription meds. It can happen to anyone, and at least he has a f*cking excuse-- he survived a plane crash. Didn't he have 3rd degree burns somewhere on his body?

Most of you pussies wish they had a plan crash as an excuse for taking vicodin, dilaudid, xanax, etc. I bet some of you steal it from your parent's medicine cabinets.

#98. Some people do live a vice free life it's called actually living anything else is not living it's numbing your pea brian with distractions until your number is called. Since you freely admit you have vices then you may end up in an equally tragic end that others judge and condemn so since that's indeed possible why are you judging him it just makes you a hypocrite you clearly do things that could eventualy kill you so have some respect it's as simple as that.

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."
That is incredibly inappropriate and insensitive in the light of such unfortunate circumstances. I believe those comments should be retracted.

I second that.

what an idiot. someone else deserved to live in that plane crash..

Dont worry Superficial, these people arnt goin anywhere. I knew right away that comment was gonna cause ripples in the comment pool. I agree with it 100% but definetely a bold manuever posting it. The message is simple and strong, life is something to protect and it seems it does require blunt and callous statements to get folks to wake up. Day after day people are dying on drugs, most recently prescription pills. Those who dont die, have to deal with a crumbling life and extensive rehab to undo what substance abuse causes. Its a sickness of a society and no matter how many celebrities die from it, people are just gonna keep on doin it, and dying.

So whereas I actually like the site a little better now for the ballsyness of posting a comment that needs to be heard, I certainly would not like to be friends or family of the deceased, and stumble onto that comment, no less deal with the loss of their loved one. Sorry for your loss.

honestly the last comment was really tasteless, a man died that's no laughing matter, but on the other hand you're right, you just said it too soon.
Anyways, we're not the ones to judge

This is sad. Came out of nowhere.. hadn't heard much of him lately and then he's dead too... honestly the celeb death I'm most upset with this year is Billy Mays :( Go out and buy oxyclean! Don't support Shamwow!
I bet Mandy Moore is torn up over this. I feel badly for her.

Someones dead, superficial. Have some fucking respect. Im removing this site from my favorites, Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

bla bla bla #102..good luck w/that "vice free life your living"....i dont think so.....everybody has "something" they are dealing with.......how you deal with it is what counts........as for "judging"....naw, its out there.......what he did and how it ended......whats to judge?

Calm down people, it's that type of site. I would have said the same thing. He got a second chance and fucked it all up. Self-inflicted ... the comment was fine.

I guess that's what you get for launching a lawsuit against a DEAD pilot's estate, potentially robbing the orphans' chances at going to university, etc...

haha .. wake up call ...how ironic

I'm going to take a wild stab at it and assume that most of the people vigorously defending this guy are either selfish inside or naive. Many people don't realize that suicide and drug abuse are not a victimless crime. This guy doesn't care if you call him an asshole, he's dead. He left behind people who are emotionally scarred, his kids, his family, his friends. Obviously the fact that this would be a tragedy to everyone around him didn't concern him when he stuck a gun in his mouth, and pulled the trigger, a while back. And, when the gun didn't go off, he learned nothing from the pain that people around him felt. A loser is a loser till death, and now he is dust in the wind, leaving behind people who genuinely cared for him. Those are the people I feel sad for.

It's sad that he didn't reach out for help that was surely available. The PTSD must have been intense.

He was probably depressed and guilty for surviving the crash man. Only a total douche wouldn't understand this and mock his 'second chance' at life. What is life like in your Superficial bubble?

Come on, Fish...he's dead. At least have some respect. Clearly he was suffering.

WHO HONESTLY CARES??? C'MON!!!

@#10 Addiction is a disease like any other disease. Do your fucking research and stop being an insensitive prick.

#115 Only a total douche would say something without knowing the facts. It was his third chance (3rd!). He already tried killing himself once before. What is it like to be a sheep?

WHO HONESTLY CARES??? C'MON!!!

WHO HONESTLY CARES??? C'MON!!!

WHO HONESTLY CARES??? C'MON!!!

WHO HONESTLY CARES??? C'MON!!!

So some drug user is dead. No one should care except that the earth is a little bit cleaner now.

#115 Only a total douche would say something without knowing the facts. It was his third chance (3rd!). He already tried killing himself once before. What is it like to be a sheep?

didn't he see Final Destination. you dont cheat deth.

@#75....That was beautifully said. Thank you.

you know, i really dont give a shit how many of you call it being a pussy. how do you fuckers sleep at night? i would just x out of this shit right now and not bother to post, but i feel the immense desire to tell the superficial they've lost another reader of i dont know how many have just left because of this. later bitches.

I feel bad that he died.

Fish is allowed to write what he wants ... freedom of speech.

Yes, Renee is a fat shut in.

ok so he might have felt guilty tht his friends or w/e died in the plane crash and he didn't. but u know wut..? shit happens and u just deal with it. thts wut 98% of functioning society does. drugs aren't the answer, they just make u more depressed. if u feel that shitty go to counseling. and people that are mentaly sane that commit suicide r just selfish pussys that r not thinking of the people they hurt around them.

I'm still going to read this site (because it's obviously the funniest one out there) but the last line was incredibly inappropriate and i am thoroughly surprised at you 'Fish, you generally step up and show us your not a bad guy.

respect man, you show it even when other don't.

seriously, why are people getting offended?

the guy had a SECOND chance at life, after a plane crash. Where the majority of people died, and (read the news), typically everybody dies.

So this jackass decides he survives and can start risking his life again?

The pilot of the plane should have been left alive, not this clown. At least we know the pilot would not have OD'ed like this fucking loser. Good riddance. You obviously had no idea how to be grateful to be alive.

I'm a reader who comes for the daily crass humor and have never commented, but I wanted to this time in order to thank the SW for his honesty and for not sugar coating things.

Let's look at the big picture: DJ AM had a nice job,money, home etc. Knowing that there are many people on this earth who have much, much less in their lives does not make me pity another rich celebrity who decides to ruin their life with an addiction. Instead of feeling sorry for a guy who took life for granted and ended it with drugs, spend your energy feeling sorry for the sick, hungry, abused, etc.

There is my rant.

I'm absolutely disgusted by the comment Superficial. I honestly will never check this site again. The man survived a plane crash and was suffering emotionally and physically because of it. He was probably taking meds to combat the pain from his 3rd degree burns, he was also probably on meds to combat survivors guilt and nightmares. You have no idea what this man could have been dealing with in his personal life.

Im usually not sensitive to comments on these shit gossip sites but this one was the worst of the worst. Just because he was wealthy and successful unlike the majority of you pervs commenting on camel toes and implants doesn't mean he didn't have a life that he deserved to live and a death that doesn't deserve to be mourned. If it happened to someone you loved I'd love to see you make jokes about their suffering.

Good for you. He had a second chance and he blew it. The perfect example of what should have been carpe diem. It's a shame.

to the people whinging about the last line of the article... have a cry, i thought the line was entirelly appropriate

DJ AM DIED @ AGE 36 OF NATURAL CAUSES
what the fuck ever.
i hope everyone who is bitching about that last line wakes the fuck up.
WHO THE FUCK IS DJ AM ANYWAY? NO ONE CARES.
will you guys cry when my uncle larry drinks himself to death @ at 52?

I lol'd

HELLO!! Travis was also in that plane crash and suffered more burns than DJ AM and he didn't go and OD himself on drugs. I agree that the last comment was a little harsh but I won't stop reading. DJ already had past problems with drugs who knows maybe he started again

fish and @42 are both right. goldstein clearly had some survivor's guilt but he was a crackhead long before the plane crash, and could have taken his survival as an opportunity to learn humility. but rather he chose to play the victim and just sue and get high.
there are people who have worse things happen to them than survive a crash, that don't go and off themselves accidentally or otherwise.
in the end he died a jerkoff.

Jesus, have some fucking compassion. He was a recovering drug addict who was forced to use narcotics again when he was badly burned. Do you have any fucking idea how much pain he was in? It becomes THAT EASY to fall back into the grip of addiction, especially when your pain not only comes from injury but from post traumatic stress disorder.

Lulz it up though, suffering is only for non celebs and their loved ones!

Morons.

It's called PTSD. That happens to people when they go through things like PLANE CRASHES. He formerly had a drug problem and was suicidal at one point because of drugs. He just finished a reality show HELPING OTHERS with their drug problems. The man had a vice and it got the best of him. It's truly a sad ting to see people die in the prime of their lives. Let the guy rest in peace. He was probably the most down to earth dude that this site has ever covered. No need for snide remarks on this story, guy.

I hate that he died but you got it right on the nose. Way to throw that second chance to hell, "DJ" AM, way to go.

Lesson here: Dont F with the grim reaper. The plane crash didnt kill him but a needle (perhaps) & his stupidity did...
BTW, do people notice that Lindsey L, Paris, and John Mayer are the FIRST F'ing aholes to throw in their 2 cents when a celeb dies...pretending to care when all they really want are they fucking names posted in the stores???

I agree with you, #79. It showed a lot about him as a person when he sued families who had actually lost family members, and his cold-heartedness and money-hunger came back to bite him in the ass.

It's sad though, 36 is such a young age to die.

This site is called the Superficial. If you want emotional responses, get the fuck out of here you bitch babies.

Fish, you do what you do, keep it up.

If you cant handle being rich and famous and having EVERYTHING in your life, then that's your problem. Boohoo I have to do so many drugs because im so well off...

That was an awesome comment fish!!! This ugly talentless dude truly didnt deserve that "second" chance!

To everyone claiming that they'll never come back to this site over that line: A) You're fuckin' lying and B) Go fuck yourselves.

Oh, he was dealing with survivor's guilt and the pain of being burned and whatnot? That is truly tragic, I agree. But if he goes and fucks his life up with drugs, fuck 'em. There are people who've suffered FAR worse that never succumb to that bullshit; where's their online pity party? Fuck this dead fuck, fuck all of you for defending his addicted ass.

everyone freaking about this comment needs to chill. we all enjoy the superficial but who is the writer really? some anonymous person with an opinion just like everyone else. maybe his comment was a bit harsh, but he's right. survive an insane plane crash and then OD less then a year later, awesome.

GUYS!!! OH NO!! WE LOST JD## AS A READER OF A BLOG!! THATS THE REAL TRAGEDY..

Final Destination 3D opened TODAY didn't it? HELL YEAH FINAL DESTINATION 3D MOTHERFUCKERS!!

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

I would like to nominate The Superficial for a Nobel Prize in literature. SPOT ON. I salute you.

I would like to nominate crack heads for a Darwin Award.

It isn't the 1960's. Who in hell is fucking stupid enough to START NARCOTICS in the 21st century (or the 1990s for that matter)?
Didn't you fools see Nancy Regan on Diff'rent Strokes? No, yer a buncha fuckwits like Dana Plato, aren't ya. What outcome are you expecting when you decide to flush your life down the toilet? Peace and prosperity?
Your friends recommend narcotics to you? THOSE AREN"T YOUR FRIENDS. Look for some real ones.

If it was accidental, eh, that's sad. I'm sick of caring for junkies and other people who fuck themselves up the ass, though. Shit on 'em.

This page of comments is a perfect example of how people will have a shit-fit on the internet about ANYTHING and EVERYTHING.

Maybe he turned to drugs to deal with his deteriorating life. That sucks - but - it's his mistake. Even if he was in pain and alone, he still took drugs and od'd. It doesn't make him a bad person and it doesn't make him a selfish person - and I feel for his family and all of that.

But come the fuck on. If you do crack, heroin - any of that shit - you're dancing with death. The Fish's comment was harsh, but this whole site is built around being harsh. If he had died in that plane crash last year you know Fish wouldn't have said a cross word.

Chill the fuck out. If you really hate brutal honesty out of a blog like this - leave. None of you are going to though. Just a pack of drama whores looking for an excuse to bunch your panties up.

It's a bummer, man.

I applaud #75 for trying to get through to people.

There are a lot of ignorant people around these parts, but then again, this is the superficial.. just reminds me not to read comments.

I don't know, I can't judge this situation. Hopefully it was an accident. He may have felt invincible after surviving the crash, or figured he should be dead so why not push it. I wonder how Travis is.

I found this post I thought I would pass on:

SO NONE OF YOU HAVE ANY VICES?????????????

Oh this is rich so I guess you all have BMI's in the 18-20 range, you eat well and don't drink or smoke, you don't and never have done drugs, you always have protected sex, you never speed or drive while talking on your self phone you never drive angry or distracted or under the influence, none of you are in debt, none of you lie, cheat, steal or have done anything criminal, none of you do crazy risky things like extreme sports, none of you have ever gotten into a fight( I know people whove gotten killed accidentally because a fight led to them falling and breaking their necks), none of you starve yourselves or take stupid over the counter meds to excess, none of you have ever had vanity plastic surgery?

YOU ALL HAVE VICES and any day something tragic stupid mistake can cost you everything. If addiction is so east to overcome why are you overweight, why are you still in debt, why can't you finish school, why can't you get your career on track??? Life isn't that simple folks it's easier said than done look at your own lives for proof of that.

It's very easy to judge but I guarantee each and every one of you has done incredibly stupid things, ahs vices and will have more in your lifetimes and will do more idiotic things and will find yourselves struggling to overcome things that other people will think you should just get over already.

I hope people had and will have more compassion for you when one of your vices or poor choices gets you into serious trouble. I won't even go into the hell that addiction is (I've seen many suffer through it and yep you smokers are addicts) since I think it would be lost on many, just look at your own lives a little more closely before you start throwing stones. If you are viceless and perfect congratulations if not get off the high horse and have the humility to see your own flaws in others and to find the compassion we all deserve for being HUMAN.

lol why are all these people dying

I would come to this site for laughs and would never comment, but holy shit...what a bunch of complete idiots. Obviously the SW writer and most of the readers have no basic understanding of mental illness and addiction. Guess it's time for me to jump out of the idiot pool. I just hope that none of you who are making such harsh statements are ever affected by mental illness and/or addiction personally...God knows you wouldn't have the first clue of what to do.

We are sorry to hear about the sudden demise of Adam Goldstein aka DJ AM.We regret for the irreparable loss for his family and loved ones and would like to express our heartfelt condolences.

I am not a fan (of any celebrity in fact) I just find people's hypocrisy infuriating. I'm sure he was flawed ( I did not respect that he sued the pilots families) the issue to me is how heinously self righteous and deeply dishonest people can be, that's the real problem with the world today people are blind to their own flaws and issues so instead of improving their own lives they waste their time judging others.

To those that have no pity, it's completely true that addicts should take control of their lives, but fail to seem to understand there is a genetic component to addiction...and it's a hellish nightmare for many of those people to overcome it. Fighting your genes isn't the easiest thing in the world. Combine this with an often lack of support from family, friends and society in general, and you get the picture.

Let's all talk about something that has nothing to do with us. Fun? Nope. Go to bed. Idiots.

The guy sued the desceased pilots' families after he survived, even though he has money. Don't call him classy, you blind cunts.

Now, shut the fuck up, you crying asshats. If you're so sensitive, don't read the website. If it offends you so much, stop responding to the posts in a pathetically vain attempt to berate others for not being so noble and caring as you. Fuck you all.

Actually, I hope everyone one of you uptight cunts on your high horses OD and die. Shitty economy is enough for everyone, we don't need more stuffy motherfuckers. People die all the fuckin' time, it doesn't make this instance special just because he was a quasi-celebrity.

There are two ways people react to news of death. Some people will think, "Hmm, I don't know this guy, but people die all the time. Who cares?" And there are those that will think, "Ohhhhhhhh my GAWD! I'm sooooooooo sorry for your loss!" The latter are the cunts, figuratively and literally.

And I don't know if you guys understand this, but I'm pretty sure Mr. "AM's" family won't be reading the Superficial website to see how his death was mentioned. IT WAS FUCKIN' FUNNY. Moreso because no other website has the balls and DGAF-ness to say it, and because all the cunts are crying. Perfect. Well played, cunts.

He deserved it. He had it coming.

Great comment, I thought it was funny and apt. Everyone whinging 'Oh you don't know how hard it was for him' is a hypocrite when you come in here and judge every other celebrity that's fodder for sites like this. Chill the hell out, laugh it off, go on with your life.

even tough it's true, some things are better left unsaid...

#75 well written.
Respect.

A friend of mine died just last week, also in New York, of a drug overdose. Although I mourn his loss, my compassion for him is end-stopped and limited by the choices he made, and the impact those choices had on this still closer to him than I ever was.

Let me make it clear that there is NO excuse for drug-taking, NO excuse for addiction and, more importantly, NO excuse for getting addicted in the first place. Choices made before addiction are entirely consciously made, and even if addiction changes the nature of those conscious decisions and impels someone subsequently to use, or an event causes a relapse, the original decision to have started remains, even if that one itself was made under exceptional circumstances. His death is his responsibility alone when you trace this back to that original decision, and although I feel sad for the family he has left behind, comments like the Superfish's need to be made far more consistently in public to show that this kind of selfish action, no matter the factors, no matter the emotions, cannot be tolerated in this, a supposedly rational society that seemingly is all too keen to make excuses for this guy and those like my friend who dug their own graves.

Prescription drugs again? did't someone else already (couple of months ago)did that, wheres the originality in the entertainment industry...

DJ AM was doing drugs again. We were not in his skin living his life, so how can we really judge him? Your own perceptions are just that, your own. You can't possibly perceive what its like for someone else. Maybe he did do something he was supposed to do and now he's moved on. Just because it doesn't fit into your perscribed view on life doesn't make it wrong.

I'm not going to cry over the guy, life goes on and I have my own things to deal with. Also, not going to stop coming here. People have every right to say and feel what they want, but it would be just super if people realized that we are here to have different experiences whether they are perceived as good or bad, and we should just concentrate on what we want for ourselves, and not worry so much about how other people live their lives.

I'm giving him some slack, as should anyone who hasn't been burned like he was.

And I'm not being disrespectful, but how does any DJ make $25,000 for three hours (assuming that's a true figure)? Even that weird little dude that goes out with LiLo?

Not only could you book a hell of a live band for $8,000/hr, you could probably find a LOT of DJs for $1000/hr and no one would know the difference..

No loss whatsoever.

Frankly, I am shocked that this is getting such a strong response from people. He was a D list celebrity at best and as many posters pointed out, people die every day from drug overdoses, intentional or not. Where is the compassion for them?

And this is the SUPERFICIAL, people. If you don't like the irreverent humor, why do you come to this site?

He pretty much lived his life like the story line of Final Destination and i for one am shocked that nobody picked up on this earlier.

Oh everybody! We're supposed to be SORRY for DRUG ADDICTS! Why can't we be sensitive to people who have loads of money and spend it on drugs, and OOPS just happened to push their limits too far one night (or day)?!

I'm sorry, but I don't feel an ounce of guilt for this guy. He had everything AND a second chance at life, but couldn't be thankful for it. Instead it's, "oh poor me, I feel guilty for having a second chance at life" let me fuck myself up with drugs.

Lindsay Lohan is next.

when your every day average crackhead dies its like "oh good, we don't need people like that in our world anyway"

but when a CELEBRITY crackhead dies its somehow news worthy & people that have never even met him are somehow sad

i don't care which way you slice it. a crackhead...... is a crackhead.

Who is he, really?

For everyone saying this loser had mental health issues and a genetic predisposition for addiction-you may be right but the fact of the matter is that his 'friends' for sure knew about it and he was definitely in a position to do something about it. If bums in the street can drag themselves to detox, a jetsetting brat who is trying to rob the dead pilot's family of every last cent their father left them likely had the resources to get some help. Lots of people live with pain without hitting the pipe.

Another worthless piece of shit gone. Who really fucking cares?

WHO IS HE???????

A DJ??????

WHO GIVES A FU******K?????????

most of these comments were completely unnecessary. AM didn't have a second chance--this was probably his third or fourth. he was a serious crack addict when he was younger and managed to kick it and had been sober for 10 years. he suffered from post traumatic stress and then broke up with his girl and took it badly. he's said that he's been lucky his entire life.

from a glamour mag interview in january 08:
"I’m not perfect; I drift all the time. If I go to a restaurant and hear there’s a 45-minute wait, my ego wants to say the worst sentence ever: “Do you know who I am?” Which, of course, really means, “Do you know who I think I am?” That’s when I have to remind myself of just who that is: a fat crackhead who’s lucky to be alive. And believe it or not, at that moment, I feel like the luckiest guy on earth."

most of these comments are unnecessary and that last line of the post was unnecessary. I would retract. I would also hazard a guess that the readership is full of callus idiots.

All of you whiny faggots need to shut the fuck up. All of you are what is wrong with society today. Stop fucking complaining about asking for retractions on every fucking thing you disagree with. You people are a fucking disease. Kill yourselves. The end.

Another douche bites the dust.

Oh please, all of you bleeding-hearts, go find some other celebrity website to peruse. Sure it's tragic ,but since when has this website ever been the epitome of class and grace?? Get over it.

"Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

Life is not a responsibility and it's not important that he live his life on your terms or for your values. We're not in some kind of game to be played -- it's not important that anyone do anything or accomplish what you think they should.

dear moaners,
you read thesuperficial for a reason; to read about the writer's SUPERFICIAL SARCASTIC COULDN'T GIVE TWO SHITS opinions of the 'celebrity' world. oh, and to see boobs.
the death of a decent human being, yes is sad.
& the CoD has not quite been determined, but it SEEMS to be a drugs overdose upon SUPERFICIAL judgement. specifically to DJ AM's death, it would seem he committed suicide, and i am sorry, in my book that is always going to be an incredibly selfish act. feel sympathy for the family and his close friends, but the man i'm sure could have chosen a better way to deal with his 'demons' or whatever the hell was bothering him. considering he already escaped dying in a plane crash and made statements about how lucky he in fact was & also that he was going to clean up his life. a little hypocritical, wouldn't you say?
i don't think you should be abusing thesuperficial for saying what you expect these kind of comments from this blog anyway - that's why the FUCK you read it. because in your own lives you don't dare.
so, i honestly say man up and honestly think about it, it's called thesuperficial for a fucking reason.

ted kennedy, anyone?

one of the most influential leaders of our time dies...no mention of it. he was a celebrity, after all. but a former fat guy who dated nicole richie for a while overdoses and it is deemed news?

It's a shame someone that had something to live for didn't sit where he was and survive the plane crash..
Fully agree with the fish

I feel sorry for his family, but that's about the most remorse anyone should feel. Whether or not it was his "second chance" or not, the fact that he started using drugs in the first place leaves little room for pity. People don't think about the consequences of their actions and how they affect others around them. Yes, he recently suffered trauma; but that doesn't mean he had to turn to (illegal) drugs. There are other ways of handling grief.

Pain medication wouldn't leave drug paraphernalia, so that argument is completely invalid. Everyone knows drugs are bad, but no one thinks anything bad will happen to them if they use them. While my condolences go out to his family, I don't pity him one bit.

actually #4, having been a second chance at life myself, i totally agree with the fish's statement, if in fact it is indeed true. Over time, it's very easy to forget the second chance just from life itself, but not in a year. I would think surviving a plane crash where 4 other people died would make one cling to their own life and live every day with complete joy. have been barreled down by an 18 wheeler and almost dying several times as a result of that really changed my own perspective and outlook in life. I can't even begin to imagine what being in that plane was like. i would probably kiss the ground and every stranger that walked by me. So, my suggestion is this, don't be too hard on the fish, because in the end, he's right on this one.

Technically, this wasn't his "2nd chance at life." DJ AM stated in an interview with Glamour magazine that he had "put a gun in his mouth, pulled the trigger, but the gun didn't go off."

It amazes me that "someone" was watching out for this guy. Good riddance! Now this "someone" can watch over someone else who deserves it.

it's called the first ammendment you communists

it's called the first amendment you communists

Yeah I'm not too cool with the "well played" comment, if the man had a serious problem it isn't something that should be made fun of. Why even mention his death if you aren't going to be respectful? He wasn't a super-celebrity.

You guys are being way to harsh about the drug addiction thing. Most of the time people know what they are doing, but the craving is so stong, they can't fight it. It is hard for someone to get help and even when they do, the relapse rate is high. Sometimes people just don't know how to deal with things, and drugs is there only way out. Addiction is no easy fix and often there are a lot of underlying problems as to why the person is hooked. Not saying it is right, but you gotta look at things fom another person's perspective. Just because it hasn't happend to you or someone you know, doesn't mean you are immune to it. And who are you to judge? Just because you don't do 'hard drugs', we all have our vices. Whether it be eating to much, drivng our cars to fast, or shopping, we all have things we turn to. And did anyone ever think that this guy maybe had survivors gulit? Obviously if he had drug problems in the past, he had trouble couping, so wouldn't you think something that extreme happening was maybe a little hard on him?

yes, amanda, I do believe what happened in his life was a little too hard on him. I didn't say that. but I also know that when you have things happen in your life like he has, or I have, it makes you look at life differently. Now, from an addict's perspective, I would not know how it would change. You're right, we all have our vices, and there are most definitely post traumatic stress issues involved, BUT it still goes back to being thankful at a second, or third, fourth etc chance at life. it comes down to this: do you value your life and the reason you are here, or not? believe when I say I do understand addictions. i moved where I am now to help one of my cousins get clean. she does have relapses from time to time, but she is working hard to overcome her own demons that got her there in the first place. Her son is a meth addict, in prison, a gay male whore and a criminal who has no desire to change his life. So, what's the difference between the two. the older cousin is learning to let go of the past and look forward to the future while the younger one lives in the past and won't let go of it. we ALL have pains from the past, those who let go can lead happier lives and overcome it. Those who don't live tormented lives.

Smug jew.

I'd love to see that apartment, i bet it stinks of jew filth

FUCK OFF, KLLOVEKATE, this is a gossip site, stop plugging your singles sites, dipshit.

wow 75...you've clearly never have a loved one who was an addict. it's so much more than a "vice" that simply hurts the addict.

I hope his loved ones find peace now that he is gone.

and btw, for you idiots who want to blame it on prescription meds he might have had from the accident, you don't need drug paraphernalia to pop pills. nevermind the fact that he was the host of an upcoming intervention-type show and was quoted saying this: “I struggled for years as a drug addict and was fortunate to get help when I asked for it. I have managed to live a clean and sober life, something that takes work and something that I pride myself on. Gone Too Far’ is my platform to help people, like I was helped by giving back in a way. … We wanted to show how real it gets and what can happen if you don’t get help.”

WELL PLAYED, indeed.

Tragic.

My prayers go out to his loved ones.

#208 - Your comment makes it look like you didn't even read #75.

You guys better fuckin think twice before you post such shit comments. Seriously, AM was a musician. Watch one of his performances. He's not just some average radio DJ. This guy remixed songs live in front of huge crowds.

Just the statement that he may have done drugs makes all of you think he's a terrible person? Get a fucking grip. The president of America did drugs.

Can we focus on the real issue here? The real issue being, of course, that several people have drawn similarities between DJ AM's death and Final Destination, part of the worst movie franchise in history. GET A LIFE.

@211 You honestly can't tell the difference btwn smoking a joint in college (while making a path to be president) and some fat loser smoking crack out of a pipe? The fact that you even fathom to compare the two is beyond sad and hilarious at the same time.

P.S. DJs are the most overrated, overappreciated and overpaid profession. Man, playing other people's music at nightclubs, for a living, must be rough.

I wouldn't be surprised if some of the commenters on here would find reason to sincerely defend Ryan Jenkins.

Haha. It's so easy to sit behind a computer and have absolutely zero compassion for someone dying. Yeah, he was a junkie, even before the crash. He was sober for a long while too. I'm still going to come to this website, regardless of the comment. It's not the comment that irritates me anyway. The superficial writer can comment on whatever he wants, I dont' really care. It's the fact that most people that are commenting on this guys death are ignorant. Yeah, people do get what they deserve. It's kind of obvious he overdosed even without an autopsy report. That doesn't give anyone the right to be so insensitive about a human being dying. I really hope when all you ignorant assholes die there's at least one person talking shit about you, telling everyone all the stupid bullshit you've done in life and how you deserved to die because of it. Regardless, this comment isn't going to change how anyone thinks about death. Like I stated above, it's so easy to sit behind a computer and be so insensitive about things. I would love to see all you morons say all this bullshit to peoples faces. Doesn't matter if you know these people or not, just state exactly how you wrote your tasteless comment, and gauge their reaction. That would never happen though, 'cause you're too scared that you might get punched in the face (or the dick), so you hide behind your computer and try to sound like a hard ass that doesn't give a shit about others lives, 'cause they're too stupid to live them. You know what? These comments are "well played" considering most of you won't actually use your vocal chords to tell others how you really feel about situations like this, 'cause your monitor/keyboard won't get angry at your statements.

Hello DJ AM - welcome to heaven - you will take lane #3 and sit with teh other idiots- say "Hi" to Mike Jackson as he to was very succesful but as he acted like an assh*^e also you both deserve to die by your own hands ..... morons hope the other morons who have money do drugs croak also.... there really isnt time or money for these jackoffs- God

Personally, I like DJ FM better anyway.

Wow - I didnt think the superficial writer could sink any lower than this. Really? Cutting remarks after someone lost their life. What a disgusting way to live YOUR life criticizing others behind a computer. It would be interesting to see how hard you will laugh if someone made a comment like that about your family members. Your really good at criticizing people - its sad to know that is how you live your life. But thats ok, you reap what you sow........

AHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I had been wondering if there could possibly be a God when that scrote and Travis Barker actually survived a plane crash when no one else ever does.
Maybe this is viral marketing for "The Final Destination"? Or did that already come out? Hahahahaha

Those who judge will eventually be judged. Really sad to see some of the comments here about a man who lost his life and such a young age. Is this what the world is coming to?
May God bless his soul and bring peace to his loved ones.

They found a crack pipe and pills in the vicinity of the body. Glasses with alcohol in them.

People die every day. Some die because of factors out of their control, car/airplane accidents and the like. Others die after heroic struggles against catastrophic illness', birth defects, cancer, injuries, etc. Some take up the pipe, the needle, snort anything that looks vaguely white, and even huff paint thinner and the like from paper bags.

In reality, this poor fuck didn't "lose" his life, he threw it away.

@ everyone mad at the SW's "well played" line.

This guy survived a plane crash that killed several people. People with families, and friends, and lives. If they had survived they could have lived life to the fullest, or at least could have gone on to be a positive part of the lives of those they already knew.

DJ AM lived instead, and blew his second chance by doing some of the same stupid shit he had been doing before. It got him killed, and considering that probably anyone else who died on that plane could have lived instead and gone on to do better things, it really does make him an incredible douchebag to die this way. Yeah I know he didn't INTEND to die, but he shouldn't have set himself up like this.

Throwing away your second chance at life when several others didn't get that chance is much more an asshole move then some snarky remark. Get your priorities straight people.

223, I don't know, perhaps his purpose in the end was to teach us all to better appreciate what we do have in life. he did endure a lot, but he also was given something in life not a lot of people have an opportunity to achieve, fame and I guess somewhat fortune. doors were opened to him that are not opened to many...sometimes too, things may come too easy for people and it's difficult to appreciate.

i dont care what crap you went through in your life, you're a complete idiot if you turn to drugs to take care of it. anyone who is saying because of the plane crash he turned to drugs is just making excuses for him and anyone else who uses drugs. everyone has their problems to deal with, but most of us are smart enough to deal with them in a normal way.
this guy was a douche, how would his friends who died in the crash feel about his death? i'm guessing they'd be pissed. they died and he didnt. he got another chance and screwed up.
"well played" so true, and hilarious!

Way to make the most of a second chance at life. Well played."

that comment just ended my browsing of the superficial. Well played. You are disgusting.

AMEN..

i got the chance to see him this New years and met him backstage. he was an amazing performer and one of the nicest guys i've ever met. if you dont know anything about PTSD consider yourself lucky. its' not that someone wasted their life, it's that few nice people could deal with the pain of seeing 4 of their friends burn to death in front of their face. he actually did an amazing job of coping, trying to help others who have addictions, be positive, be creative, and keep going with his music where most people would have just curled up in a ball for the last year. so he had a bad week and got upset and relapsed, he was an amazing guy and doesn't deserve to be criticized. RIP ADAM!

DJ AM's death has been ruled a homicide!

http://thejamminjabber.com/2009/08/29/dj-ams-death-ruled-a-homicide/

He deserved to die and anyone who says otherwise is a moron. Right now he is burning in Hell with Michael Jackson and Ed McMahon.

People who are crying that sw was too direct, suck it up. Do you live your life in sorrow, i say that well because people die every 6 seconds.

There a father, and sons fighting in wars, kids dying of starvation, and brutal murders. Don't you think those victims deserve a second chance? You know what, yeah AM did have followers, and yes he showed everyone what it was like to live in the celeberty world. But he made the choice to head that direction. He should of thought about his kids, he should of thought of his family, but no he was selfish. He could of got help, i'm sure he could afford it.

He blew his chance and only deservers our pity, his family on the other hand our sorrow.

Dj AM, way to go bud, hats off to you.

A-fuckin-men to the comment. To live thru a plane crash much to everyones profound relief only to piss it away with shit-escapist drugs and over do it till you die? He deserves the derision for shitting all over his friends and familys feelings emotions.

Superficial- dont retract ANYTHING and hell with the haters.

Heres that driect quote to People magazine after the crash

"I can't believe I made it," he said. "I've prayed every night for the past 10 years. There's a lot more to thank God for now. ... I was saved for a reason. Maybe I'm going to help someone else. I don't question it. All I know is I'm thankful to be here."

Blatant, headline grabbing lie IMO.
Superficial- dont retract ANYTHING and hell with the haters.

@ the folks saying they'll never come back: Within 3 days 90% of you will be reading this site. Hell, several of you are still replying in this thread so it's safe to assume you're still checking it. Way to take a stand.

Keep doing the same thing SW. Screw the fair weather fans.

As far as the claim it's been ruled a homicide, I'll believe it when it comes from a reputable news source. For your one source I've found 10 that say it's an apparent overdose on prescription medication or there is no foul play suspected.

Who?

who cares, he was meant to die in the plane crash.. he didn't...
death caught up with him.

you can't beat death.

i bet this was due to the fact that mandy moore married that bag of suck, ryan adams.

Who cares, the guy was a f*#(@in idiot.

@228 Huh? Ed McMahon was evil? And damn,this is a lot of comments for a guy who was a D list celebrity.

All of these superior minded geniuses that are so appalled by the nature of fish's comments better be true to their word that they aren't coming back. DJ AM had more than most can ever imagine. He died in a 2 million dollar condo in SoHo. Anyone throw out the first pitch at a Met's game lately?

He had major issues before the plane crash so I can't cry a river over his great fortune in that circumstance. He chose to punch his own ticket on his own terms at the expense of those that cared for, or needed him, like his family.

DJ AM might be given a pass by those who emphasize his troubled past, but in the end he was selfish and fulfilled his own needs without any regard for others. If that is acceptable to some based on his mental condition then I will just agree to disagree.

@226 You sound like a decent person. Thank you.

i've never left a comment before, but after reading the post, i knew i had to. so i've always looked past your horrible attempts at humor and intelligence on this site because, well, sometimes i just love some celebrity gossip. hey i'm from america, i've been conditioned. until now your site has provided me with the pointless, harmless entertainment i was looking for. but after reading "way to make the most of a second chance at life", it's safe to say i will not be back on this site. you are a sick, stupid fuck, who will never be at the level dj AM was. goodbye

It never ceases to amaze me that people that are smart enough to make millions of dollars are dumb enough to overdose from drugs.

100% agree with Fish - what a fucking waste.

jasmine, you are comparing a troubled musician who put drugs in his own body, to a fucking reality tv fuck who murdered a woman and hung himself. what the fuck is wrong with you. may we never have the pleasure of meeting in person. cheers

I am sorry for his friends and family, I am sorry if he had a horrible experience that led him into drug addiction, and I hope he has found some kind of peace. That said, the last comment was not too far, not out of character, not too soon, and not unfair. People can't pretend they are ignorant of the dangers of drugs and the risks that they take when using them. It is, as a previous commentor said, a form of slow suicide. While death might have not been the intended action of taking drugs, it is a possiblity. You play with fire, you're going to get burned. I do feel remorse that he felt the need to do that, but he's a big boy and it was his decision.

Keep posting, I'll keep reading.

it's shocking to me to find that so many of you are reacting to this with such intensity. have you not noticed that the superficial is pretty consistent with his/her mocking of the living and the dead? its the way the site IS. don't come here to be wowed by eloquent RIP wishes, this is not the place. the readers vowing to never read superficial again are those with sticks up their asses and no sense of humor. good riddance.

#210 - you are correct. i only skimmed and read the last paragraph, where #75 was comparing drug addiction to losing weight, quitting smoking, driving recklessly, etc.

i stand corrected on my original comment, but still think those comparisons are beyond ridiculous.

It's so funny all these people who "loved" this guy. As if most of them ever saw him spin live, let alone ever met him. And even if they did, so what. Star struck imbisciles. This dude, although talented with 2 decks and a mixer, was a crackhead. No sympathy for crack heads. Sorry.

To all those of you crying over Fish's comment: WAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!! Shut up. Take your asses elsewhere. This is The Superficial, not People.com. Be gone. Beat it.

Maybe he was self-medicating* because a) his girlfriend had left him, b) he lives in a society where people say, "I have no sympathy for crackheads", "You blew your second chance at life, bro." -

America, you are the cliche your media has created.

* or he could have just been on a bender. Take away all the artists in the world who do drugs and you are left with a pretty sad bunch.

The Superficial writer- you are a very funny writer, but sometimes you lack class when you need it most. Unfortunately my love of bikinis overrides my love of morale dignity. Bikinis/ drugs - it's all a sickness, people.

He couldn't have been involved in any music that was actually good, because I've never heard of him.

I have zero sympathy for suicides or death by drugs...it's actually an awesome way to weed out the fucktards out of the world...

More importantly, who the fuck is DJ AM?

My cock is large...

Such heartlessness, I'm going to go o.d. on marijuana now, goodbye cruel world!!

hm

Was anyone saying this shit When heath ledger od'd?

anyways, unless you've suffered the torture of being PRESCRIBED medication and then becoming addicted to it, you're really just talking out of your ass.

LET'S BE DECENT PEOPLE, I THINK HE WAS REALLY DEPRESSED, AND THATS A REALLY POWERFULL DISEASE, I FEEL BAD FOR HIM HW WAS TOO YOUNG...

Now, shut the fuck up, you crying asshats. If you're so sensitive, don't read the website. If it offends you so much, stop responding to the posts in a pathetically vain attempt to berate others for not being so noble and caring as you. Fuck you all."

What're you, 11? Grow up, you fucking coward. Stop acting like you know the whole story about what happened w that plane crash and the lawsuit that followed, as I'm PRETTY sure there's a good amount of shit you dont know, facts wise. Instead you come on here trying to sound like some fucking hardass keyboard warrior when in reality you're a fat tub of shit with a limited vocabulary (as evident by your stupid ass rant) and if I had to guess, a thing for transgendered porn.I hate to break it to you but repeating an asinine statement over and over, just makes it look that much more foolish. As sad as what happened to DJ AM was/is, I think you should follow suit, assclown.

Personally, I agree with the "well played" comment. That guy was damn lucky he survived a plane crash, and he ended up overdosing a year later? Makes me sick. I would have cleaned up my life -- I think most people would have looked at life differently. But I have very little sympathy for drug users, so... I agree with Fish.

"200. Kara - August 29, 2009 11:42 AM

Technically, this wasn't his "2nd chance at life." DJ AM stated in an interview with Glamour magazine that he had "put a gun in his mouth, pulled the trigger, but the gun didn't go off."

It amazes me that "someone" was watching out for this guy. Good riddance! Now this "someone" can watch over someone else who deserves it."

Yet another dumb cunt who talks like she has any fucking clue what the guys going through and what even HAPPENED.

Go back to playing fat fucking (although you may have to mimic that part, doubtful anyone would fuck you without rohypnol by the truckload) housewife and get your sorry ass back in the kitchen.

Who's the new WRITER??? and LMAO@36 P.S.What has been the MOST commented article EVER?? email me

THIS SHOWS WHAT KIND OF PEOPLE YOU ARE TO MAKE SUCH INSENSITIVE COMMENTS TO SOMEONE WHO HAS DIED. DOESNT MATTER WHAT IT WAS, HES DEAD AND HE DIDNT DESERVE IT. WE ARENT HIM WE DONT KNOW WHAT HE IS GOING THROUGH AND FOR YOU INSENSITIVE COLD HEARTED DEMONS TO SAY SUCKS FOR HIM IS INHUMANE!! YOU HAVE TO WAKE UP EVERY MORNING AND LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND FACE WHAT YOU REALLY ARE, EVIL PEOPLE. TO SAY THAT IS JUST NOT NATURAL YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT FAMILIES AND FRIENDS GO THROUGH WHEN A BELOVED DIES, AND NO MATTER IF HE DID DRUGS OR NOT OR IF HE SURVIVED A PLANE CRASH: NO ONE ON EARTH DESERVES THOSE KINDA COMMENTS. BUT WE ALL KNOW WHEN YOUR MOM TELLS YOU THAT THE WORLD IS A CRUEL PLACE AND THERE ARE EVIL PEOPLE OUT THERE, SHE IS TELLING THE TRUTH BECAUSE THE EVIL PEOPLE ARE YOU. I PRAY TO GOD AND HOPE YOU GET BETTER: THAT ONE DAY THE LIGHT WILL SHINE THROUGH YOU AND YOU WILL BECOME A BETTER PERSON, BUT I JUST ASK THAT YOU LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND ASK YOUR SELF: REALLY? HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF SOMEONE SAID THAT ABOUT YOUR MOTHER OR YOUR WIFE OR WHATEVER. YOU SICK DISGUSTING SCUM OF PEOPLE. THIS IS WHY WE HAVE EVIL PEOPLE IN OUR WORLD: YOU ONLY HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE AND I PRAY THAT YOU DO

REST IN PEACE DJ AM YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY LOVED BY MANY,

The herpes virus sobs at the loss of it's host.

#208. Go to a hospital and see your tax dollars at work paying for all the fatties who ate their way to heart disease getting treatment form your pocket. Being fat is so the fuck the same thing as being a drug addict, addict to drugs addicted to food and you fucking hurt other peoples lives like your family who watches you destroy yourself and society who has to pay for your reckless gluttony. Same thing if you fuck without protection and need meds or drink like a fish or drive recklessly (because you can kill someone when you drive like a dumfuck talking on your cellphone and way more turds do that than people are drug addicts).

You are probably just a fattie stuffing your face all day and you hate being told you are as selfish and stupid as a drug addict. Some of course can have compassion for all addicts and see the humanity but for the sake of making the point I gave you the popular perception so that you can see that a lot of the people pointing fingers here are no effing better.

i ve never posted, but i do feel angry about your site s comment !!! he hasn't killed anyone and i guess he s been through some hard time breaking up with girl friend and from the plane crash .. he is someone's Dad, friend, brother and son. u posting such a comment is just so inappropriate. sometimes situation is more complex than black and white ..
The end of the day , he died and he did give lots people good time , i am sure
rest in peace DJ AM

Yaaaaaaaaay! I always wanted him to die, and now I got my wish! I can't wait until some other celebrities that annoy me die.

It's ridiculous to think that we have to pay someone respect just because they've died, especially if that death is self-induced. That whole "speak well of the dead" thing is bullshit. If he'd molested children, would we all be saying "oh, that's tacky what you said, dog?" Nope. So, I think the point we should all take away from this is that DJ AM touched children.

SCORE: DEATH - 1, DJ AM - 0 (OT)
GAME OVER.
Wow! I didn't know so many bleeding heart assbags read this site! Who ever he was, he met his end on his own terms - applaud him!!!! Now everybody save your energy to moan and bitch about the next worthless "celebrity' who does us all a favor by checking out early........

All the people who are defending a writer simply because the site is called "The Superficial" and therefore believe he should write snarky, insensitive things are total idiots.
A good writer knows when to refrain from the easy joke. A good writer uses wit instead of snark. He's probably lost some readers not only for his cruel comment but also because he took the easy joke instead of showing some class in a moment when class is needed.

Who the fuck is this POS? What's his claim to fame at least he could have been DJ FM or DJ Sirius but AM. WTF? He's just another rich guy who had it all and could deal with life's realities. Yeah he was in a terrible plane crash and he lived but at least physically he was able to resume his life. Not to mention he had the monetary resources to deal with the emotional injuries he received. He took the easy way out.

Oh did I mention they don't have millions of dollars to help pay for their injuries all they have is the VA. Now there's a fucking reason to live!

You do realize you sound like a fucking idiot, right? Not to mention you dont make sense for shit.

DJ AM:

1. Tried killing himself once already, failed
2. Survived a plane crash, only to sue the families of the pilots who died
3. Chose smoking crack as a priority over his kids
4. Contributed absolutely nothing to society by being a mediocre DJ, at best
5. Pissed away the money he'd made on drugs instead of helping people
6. Was offered help for his drug addiction many times but turned it down
7. Chose to start doing drugs in the first place
8. The only reason anyone knows about him at all is because of Nicole Richie (who also has contributed nothing to society)
9. Had everything to live for
10. Travis Barker is doing fine after the crash...

All you folks that are pissed off over the last line in the commentary...

It was a harsh thing to write, but the truth hurts.

All these people saying they're not going to read Superficial anymore are the same people that said they would move out of the country if Bush was reelected to a second term. Nobody moved..... well, Johnny Depp did. Get over yourselves. However, at least Superficial didn't throw out another Jesus diss! Those ones get old.

THIS

SITE

IS

OUTRAGEOUS!!11

<3 <3 <3

I applaud the Superficial for that last line. So true. I was expecting something sappy for a guy who didn't really deserve it. So happy with what I saw. So true.

For everybody that's like "Oh, I doubt you live a clean vice-free life," fuck you. There's a BIG difference between being a little overweight or something like that and being a drug addict. Case in point: I like oreos. Actually, I love oreos. Now they're bad for me, but I still like them. However, I don't think about oreos all the time. I don't need oreos to get through the day, nor do I eat them every day. If I never had another oreo again, it would suck cause they're delicious, but life would go on as normal. That's what a vice is. Needing oreos is what an addiction is. That's stupid. And furthermore, quit being a little bitch about drug use. So what if life was hard? Life is hard for everyone. Man up. Everyone knows drugs are addictive and can kill you. Why would you put them inside you unless you were an idiot? I really don't care what hardships you've gone through, there's always someone who's been through the same or worse.

Ok Jen(296), so what about the ones who've been through worse? Sick and twisted things that happened as a child and messed that person up emotionally and mentally? Let's say then that by age 11 someone introduced that child to drugs and she found that when she took them, the pain, shame, rage, and other intense feelings mellowed out and she felt better? So by the time this person is 15 they are already extremely hooked on hard core drugs. You are going to judge someone like that and say they are stupid or a loser? You are harsh.

@ 65: There is a huge difference between Brad Pitt's ganja and DJ Am's crack. You are ignorant.

Fucking right on Superficial.

seriously? who the fuck is this guy? The DJ from fucking Crazytown? Jesus, who the fuck cares? The only reason he is at all famous is because sites like this wondered who the douchebag with nicole richie and mandy moore was.
Yeah, look at the old posts, he was nothing but a celebrity hanger on.

As far as his children, who the fuck are they? Who did he have them with? Why are they not mentioned on the wiki that I had to look up to see if I'd missed something about why he was famous ( I didn't, it was just for fucking nicole ). Oh, they don't fucking exist.

It's offensive that anyone is called a musician for having the same abilities as an ipod shuffle. So don't act like this one drug addicts death means anything at all to anyone that didn't personally know him. Honestly are you people this broken up anytime a policeman, firefighter or soldier dies?

So making a living off of being a DJ is reprehensible?

How about making a living off of promoting a website which solely exists to provide "superficial" commentary about celebrities?

So having a useless celebrity job is horrible, but superficially commenting about a celebrity who has a useless job is valid?

What the fuck is wrong with this country?

I think that going through the plane crash experience is probably connected to him overdosing. He was probably all screwed up from it.

@297: Shit happens. TO EVERYONE. We all have shitty lives, and yet we're not all drug addicts. Going through rough times is not a reason to wreck your life. I'm sure life was very hard for him after the crash and maybe even because of other things. But rather than trying to get professional help or turning to those around him for support, he chose a road that he knew could lead him to his death. This "11 year old" you speak of could do the same thing. Yes, it's hard, but it's better than being dead. Don't use hard times as an excuse to cop out of living.

#302. Jen thanks so much for taking the time to inform yourself before you psoted. Oh wait...

He was seing a consellor, he was sober for 11 years and he was just now waiting to see another counselor to help him with post traumatic stress. He was actively getting and seeking help. A traumatic event left him riddled with guild and he faltered like any human being and fell back onto old patterns for what seems to have been a very short period of time. Sadly it was deadly. If a girl ahd a serious eating disorder was healthy for 11 plus years and then after a trumatic plane crash that killed two friends and a breakup she resorted back to starving and died would you think she was awful or HUMAN??? I vote for human, Ge succeeded for so long but an addict is fragile at any point they can fall back in, just like those who were once obses often put it back on or people who have been sober for a decade hit the bottle after a divorce.

Fish is bang on. I might be able to understand people who knew this guy getting all upset BUT if you really knew him, you would be mourning and not reading the comments section of a website that hammers on people all the time. You know what you get when you come here, so, if you feel like crying, email your friends, have a cry and let the rest of us be assholes with Fish.

Yah. Shit happens to everyone, but not everyone is able to handle it. It is so easy to say to someone.... Oh yah... you were molested as a kid.... man up, shit happens. But you know it takes time to heal wounds for some people. And sometimes people have trust issues and cant talk to other people or admit they have a problem, so they turn to drugs to feel better. I am glad all you people here passing judgement have such charmed.... perfect.... lives that you have never done anything wrong. Or have never had a hard time coping with something and had to turn to someone else or something to make you feel better. Seriously whatever happend to human compassion. I really hope some of you people on here writing are just trying to get shits and giggles out of people and really are not like that. It's one thing to come on this website and get a laugh at of Lohan wearing a god awful outfit, but to sit and tell someone they deserve to die.... that is a whooole nother story.

seriously distasteful commentary... he didn't do anything to hurt anyone, just himself. a simple RIP would have done

RETARDS OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A NEW WRITER.

So the world just lost another ugly, no talent, crack head. Big Fuckin' Deal.

@291 - well fucking put

This was a shocking news. Why did it happen? The suicide of DJ AM wasn't something that anyone really saw coming. He was only 36 years old, he was relatively famous, successful, he had everything going for him, and they've been speaking to anyone who will discuss it that knew him. He was dating model Haley Wood at the time, and though it would seem that a person should perhaps be left to her grief – the vultures are what they are, and had to get a statement. Haley Wood disclosed that rumors that DJ AM, real name Adam Goldstein, and her were very much together, and a rumored breakup was a detestable rumor. It would be great if someone could give the gossip hounds a cash advance to let celebrities, like Haley Wood, grieve in privacy.
