Celebrities Remember DJ AM on Twitter

As most of you already know, DJ AM was found dead today in his apartment in New York City. He was only 36-years-old.

Twitter has become a new fad for celebrities to chat and reach out to fans, but apparently it has also become a way to mourn for their fallen comrades.

My thoughts and Prayers to his family and friends.” Katy Perry, who performed with AM and Barker at the VMAs last year when the duo acted as the night’s house band, tweeted, “Rest in peace friend.”
