DJ AM Agreed To Go To Rehab 24 Hours Before His Death
Posted on Tue Sep 1, 2009 08:45 AM PDT
We were deeply saddened to learn that DJ AM (nee Adam Goldstein) was found dead in his NYC apartment last Friday, and this latest news is even more heart-wrenching.
The New York Post reports that DJ AM had been missing appointments and acting erratically in recent weeks, so naturally his West Coast manager and recovery sponsor became concerned. The two took a red-eye to NYC on Wednesday night to confront AM at his SoHo apartment the next morning, and while he was alive when they met with him on Thursday, it looks like they may have been too late.
When they showed up at his door, AM refused to see his manager but he did allow his sponsor to come in, and once inside the troubled DJ reportedly lit up a crack pipe and popped pills in front of his friend. AM then promised both his sponsor and manager that he would check himself into a rehab clinic in California after making a scheduled gig at the Palms in Las Vegas the following night.
When DJ AM missed his flight to Las Vegas on Friday and didn't return phone calls, friends brought cops to his apartment, and that's when they found him dead in his bedroom.
Hugs, not drugs kids.

Cue the hysteria on blaming drugs. It's a simpleton argument. There are different ways to kill oneself. Whether or not that's what happened, no one will know. But you can't legislate this stuff. If people want to take drugs, they will. Idiots like Drew Pinsky try to pathologize drug taking. The focus should be on making the world a better place to live in, not scapegoating coping mechanisms.
This dude was a DJ not a singer/song writer or producer, he played songs and mixed em a little. Big deal!! He is only mentioned cause he used to bang the skin & bones of Nicole Richie, another no talent & if he's banging her you know he's high. This dude was nothing special to be on this celebrity website.
Can I spin a mix of 'The End' on his coffin at the funeral?
Who Cares. Another dead drug addict.
a DJ that use to play for celebritys...And I'm sure he never had stop to use drugs...He's being smoking crack ever...Bullshit that he was sober for 10 years lol
