Here is your first glimpse of DJ AM since the fatal plane crash.
The 35-year-old, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, stepped out to attend a memorial service for Travis Barker’s assistant, Chris Baker. Mourners were asked to wear green to the service, which was held at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Hollywood.
DJ AM was released from Doctors Hospital in Augusta, Geogria on Saturday, a week after the crash that took the lives of four people. He and former Blink-182 drummer Barker were the only survivors.
“While he is deeply saddened by the events, he is thankful for all of the love and support he has been receiving from fans and friends worldwide,” his rep, Jenni Weinman, has said. “We ask that you continue to respect his privacy as he rests and heals and mourns the loss of his friends.”
FYI: Two weeks before the crash, I met up with DJ AM on the red carpet at the MTV VMAs (pictured below).
GET WELL SOON, AM!

Travis Barker, DJ AM Injured in Fatal Plane Crash
Former Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker and Adam Goldstein, aka DJ AM, were injured in a plane crash that killed four people (3 males, 1 female) and critically injured two, NBC News reports.
Both Travis and DJ AM were in critical condition as of Saturday morning and transported to a burn center in Augusta, Georgia.
The FAA said the plane carrying six people was departing from South Carolina’s Columbia Metropolitan Airport headed to Van Nuys, Calif., when an air traffic controller reported seeing sparks. The plane went off the runway and crashed on a nearby road.
Travis performed Friday night at an event with Perry Farrel, Gavin DeGraw, and DJ AM. Earlier this month, Travis and DJ AM were the house band at the MTV Video Music Awards.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Travis, DJ AM, their friends and family.
UPDATE: The deceased are Sarah Lemmon (pilot), James Bland (co-pilot), Chris Baker (Travis’ assistant) and Charles Still (Travis’ bodyguard).
