DJ AM was once engaged to Nicole Richie (via Engagements.ca)According to the New York Post, Adam Goldstein (better known by his moniker DJ AM) was found dead this afternoon in his Manhattan apartment. Sources say drug paraphernalia was at the scene. Goldstein was a recovering drug addict.
TMZ reports that no one had seen or heard from Goldstein for a few days, so finally a concerned friend came by to knock on his door. When Adam didn't answer, the pal called the police, who broke down the door to his apartment and found his body.
Last September, Goldstein was in a plane crash in South Carolina, where he was traveling with Travis Barker. Goldstein and Barker were the only passengers to survive the crash. Barker's ex-wife Shanna Moakler Tweeted today:
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. Goldstein had previously dated Nicole Richie and Mandy Moore. He was 36.
