On Friday, DJ AM, a celebrity disc jockey who no one away from the West Coast had heard of, was found dead. Well, I guess some people knew him. He did get into that plane crash in September that killed four others, but people mostly remember it as the one that nearly took out Blink 182's drummer. Yeah, that was sad...

Now though, police are saying that the DJ, whose real name was Adam Goldstein, is believed to have died of a drug overdose. Wait for it, there's some serious irony coming your way.

If toxicology tests - still weeks away -- do confirm that drugs led to his death at age 36, it would be a tragic end to his years of battling addiction.

"I got so lost in my disease," he told MTV News in his final interview with the network on July 29, 2009, which was posted on MTV's Web site after the news of his death.

At the time of his death, the star had just completed a reality series for MTV called "Gone Too Far" about helping addicts stop using. Whether it will air or not is currently unknown.

"The inspiration for the show is that I am a recovering drug addict, 11 years sober," he told MTV News... "Every day, I have to remind myself that... I'm still a drug addict. I have to hold onto the ground, gripping the grass with both hands."

Oh irony and fate, you pair of fickle bitches. The dude survived the plane crash, joined a show about stopping drug addictions and then died of one himself. I'm not sure if this story is tragically hilarious or hilariously tragic - both are pretty mean, so I'm going to go with the second one. Seriously, this is a warning to all would-be celebrities. We already knew doing anything on MTV would kill your career, now it looks like the stakes are much much higher.
