EARLIER THIS EVENING, it was announced that Swedish DJ Avicii was found dead in Muscat, Oman.
The DJ, whose real name was Tim Bergling, was just 28 years old. His publicist released a statement:
It is with profound sorrow that we announce the loss of Tim Bergling, also known as Avicii. The family is devastated and we ask everyone to please respect their need for privacy in this difficult time. No further statements will be given.
Following the news of Bergling’s death, many celebrities expressed their shock and sadness on social media.
Canadian producer and DJ Deadmau5 offered his condolences on Twitter.
I would have enjoyed nothing more than ripping into Avicii well into and beyond our 60s. Taken away from us far too young. I know he's at peace somewhere up there getting the last laugh that I spelled his name right this time.
devastated at the news of @Avicii passing. working with him was one of my favorite collaborative moments. far too young. the world was a happier and fuller place with his presence and art. sending all my love to his friends and family. Xxdr
