D4vd Suspends Tour Following Identification of Teen Found in Tesla

Singer D4vd has announced the suspension of his world tour following the identification of a deceased teenager found in his impounded Tesla. The victim, identified as Celeste Rivas, was reported missing for over a year before her remains were discovered in a bag inside the vehicle at a Los Angeles tow yard. This tragic event has prompted the artist to cancel his scheduled performance on September 17, 2024, at Seattle’s Showbox SoDo.
The 20-year-old artist, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, was slated to continue his tour, which is set to kick off its European leg on October 1, 2024. Reports indicate that the decision to halt the tour was made in light of the unsettling circumstances surrounding the identification of Rivas, who vanished from her family’s home in Lake Elsinore, California, in April 2024.
Authorities had previously reported that a decomposing body was found in D4vd’s vehicle, which had been reported missing and towed from the Hollywood Hills. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) confirmed on Wednesday, September 13, 2024, that the remains belonged to Rivas, now aged 15. The police stated that they currently do not have any information regarding a suspect and have not received a classification from the coroner concerning the manner of death.
In a statement to NBC News, the LAPD expressed that investigations are ongoing but did not provide additional details. Rivas’ mother informed media outlets that her daughter had a boyfriend named David and a distinctive “Shhh…” tattoo on her right index finger, which matches a similar tattoo also worn by D4vd. This tattoo has been popular among celebrities in the past, featuring on stars like Rihanna and Lindsay Lohan.
D4vd’s representatives have not yet responded to requests for comment regarding the situation. The shocking revelation about Rivas has left fans and the broader community grappling with the implications of this tragedy. As the investigation continues, the focus remains on uncovering the circumstances surrounding Rivas’ disappearance and death.
