EXCLUSIVE: DJ AM Found Dead

DJ AM - the celebrity disc jockey known for dating starlets and surviving a horrific plane crash - has been found dead in an apparent drugs overdose in New York.

Cops found prescription drug bottles inside DJ AM's residence at 210 Lafayette Street after the 36-year-old's lifeless body spotted face-down in his bed at around 5:23 pm by a friend, who was concerned he hadn't heard from the performer in several days, sources said.

Emergency medical workers responding to a 911 call from the friend declared DJ AM dead at the scene, the Daily Telegraph reports. No foul play is suspected.

DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, had twittered recently that he had finished wrapping up an MTV reality show about drug addiction.

Prescription drugs and a crack pipe were found at the scene. Bottles of pills were found in both the bedroom and the kitchen. He was wearing sweatpants and no shirt.

Friends of the disc jockey gathered outside his apartment tonight, hugging each other. They declined to speak with reporters.

The Philadelphia native, whose real name was Adam Michael Goldstein, was a former member of the band Crazy Town, which scored the smash rap-rock hit "Butterfly" in 2001.

His work behind turntables in hotspots around the world paid him up to $25,000 or more per night - helping fund what became a collection of more than 1000 sneakers.

DJ AM had high-profile romances with Nicole Richie, to whom he was once engaged, as well as with actress Mandy Moore.

Last September 19, DJ AM and former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker were badly burned in the crash of a private plane in South Carolina that killed four other people on-board.

The plane crashed as it headed down the runway during takeoff.

Barker's ex-wife, Playmate Shanna Moakler, responded to news of DJ AM's death on Twitter, writing, "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."

"We all love him and miss him," said DJ AM's close friend, new York nightclub entrepreneur Mike Satsky.

Samathan Ronson, another celebrity DJ, tweeted to a friend, "Waiting for someone to say this isn't true."

Guitar virtuoso John Mayer tweeted, "We're supposed to lose our friends to time, at an age when we're ready to agree to the terms of having lived a long life. Not now."

Lindsay Lohan wrote, "i can't believe this ... I'm in shock. why? why? r.i.p. adam."

In his own last post on Twitter, dated Tuesday, DJ AM quoted a Grandmaster Flash song: "New York, New York. Big city of dreams, but everything in New York ain't always what it seems."

He was scheduled to have deejayed at Dusk in Atlantic City on Tuesday and then tonight at Rain in Las Vegas.

In a 2007 interview with the New York Times, DJ AM admitted to having begun seriously abusing crack cocaine in his early 20s. But he said he had been sober for the past nine years and had even recently given up smoking.

"All that's left is caffeine," he told the paper.

Random OD: Police Raid Jadakiss Crib

Police have seized five grams of heroin, over six pounds of marijuana and $40,000 in cash from a New York apartment leased to rapper Jadakiss.

Jada, whose real name is Jason Phillips, wasn't in the apartment when the authorities arrived. The Yonkers-bred MC is currently not wanted in connection of the case either, police said.

The warrant stemmed from a Friday incident where police stopped what they described as a suspicious vehicle. They noticed marijuana in the vehicle. The driver, Alberto Lajara, was charged with fifth-degree criminal possession of marijuana and disorderly conduct.

Gabriel Henriquez, a passenger, actually led cops on a brief foot chase. He was charged with second-degree possession of marijuana and second-degree assault.

After authorities investigated Lajara and Henriquez's backgrounds further, they were led to Jada's apartment. The precise relationship between the two apprehended men and the famed rapper is unknown at the time.

Run This Town (Official Directors' Commentary)

DeLorean DMC-12 x 2JZ-GTE

The DeLorean DMC-12 was no better than a hunk of stainless steel from the factory. It came with a 2.8 liter V6 that produced a measly 130 hp (170 hp for the Euro version) which was good enough to propel the car from 0 to 60 mph in about 10 seconds which is about the same as a Toyota Prius.

This particular example from Florida (WOOT!) is no turtle. Eddie has swapped a 2JZ-GTE into his DeLorean. To make matters more impressive, he did most of the work himself from his garage. There is no exact horsepower figures, but the owner is aiming for around 400 whp. That is plenty enough for the car that now weights roughly 3,000 lbs after the swap. For comparison, a E36 M3 is heavier at about 3,200 lbs with only 240 hp at the crank. For more details and pictures, check out Eddie’s thread on Supraforums.

Jay-Z – Run This Town [feat. Rihanna & Kanye West] [Video]FINAL LAST POST I PROMISE@

This video has been teased and trailered more than The new movie District 9! "Run This Town," the high-concept Jay-Z video with Rihanna and Kanye West, debuted last night on MTV.

Director Anthony Mandler explains the video:

"There's a militia, a march and a kind of rambunctious energy to it that, for me, I immediately wanted to tap into. I showed [Jay] some references from the classic rebellious zones of the world. We live in a very orderly society in America, but when you get into Brazil, you get into the Middle East, you get into Africa, you get into Eastern Europe, when you get into places like that, there's a different sort of 'we run this town' [going on]. There's less order and more chaos."

Like the previous television anime and video features, Wangan Midnight the Movie will center on a young man named Akio who salvages "Devil Z," a custom-tuned Datsun Fairlady S30Z car with a supposedly cursed history.

Model/dancer/opportunist Carmen Ortega claims she is the real reason why Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian are no longer an item. According to Ortega, who showed up on Shade 45's "Lip Service" yesterday, she and the New Orleans star kicked it hard for about three months.
While explaining how she's no longer mad at Bush for the step cousin treatment, Ortega manages to call out Reggie, specifically saying how cheap dude is.
Yeah, we know that scenes like this are to be taken with a grain of salt. When folks are upset or embarrassed about something, they're liable to say anything negative about the other person.
In the following clip, Ortega makes no mention about a rumored sex tape she has of herself and Reggie. But our Spidey senses tell us that if she doesn't get the exposure she wants from this situation, the skin flick will see the light of day.
Til then, here's a lil' PG something for your eyes...

Exclusive: Mike Vick Signs To The Eagles

ESPN- Quarterback Michael Vick has signed a two-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles, his agent, Joel Segal, confirmed to ESPN.com.

Vick arrived in Philadelphia Tuesday morning and remained there Wednesday evening. The Eagles will hold a news conference on Friday morning to announce his signing.

Vick was the No. 1 draft pick in 2001, and once the highest-paid player in football. But he has not played since 2006 when his career came tumbling down. He was convicted in August 2007 of conspiracy and running a dogfighting operation, sentenced to 23 months in federal prison and suspended indefinitely by the NFL.

But after serving his time and being released from home confinement July 20, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell conditionally lifted Vick's suspension, allowing him to sign with a team.

Vick can immediately take part in preseason practices, workouts and meetings and can play in the final two preseason games.

The Eagles travel to meet Vick's former team, the Atlanta Falcons, in Week 13 on Dec. 6.

Chris Mortensen is a senior NFL anlyst. ESPN's Sal Paolantonio contributed to this report

Honestly, the movie was actually really GOOD. nonstop action,(specially the whole Paris scene) Suprisingly there was actually somewhat of a storyline. Also I could see how some reviewers say about the effects being bad being true, but I felt that only applied
