Emerging music star d4vd has abruptly canceled his upcoming tour dates after investigators identified the body of a missing teenage girl in a vehicle registered under his name.
Authorities in Los Angeles confirmed on Thursday that the deceased was a 17-year-old reported missing earlier this month. Her body was discovered in the back seat of a black Tesla, which public records show was registered to singer-songwriter d4vd, known for his viral hit “Romantic Homicide.”
Police stated that the investigation is ongoing and that no charges have been filed against the artist at this time. Officials declined to comment on whether d4vd was directly connected to the incident, stressing that “all possibilities remain under review.”
Representatives for the 19-year-old musician issued a brief statement late Thursday night: “In light of recent developments, d4vd will be postponing all upcoming tour dates. We ask for understanding and privacy during this difficult time.”
The sudden announcement has sent shockwaves across the music industry. d4vd, who built his career independently on platforms like SoundCloud and TikTok before signing to Interscope Records, had been scheduled to embark on a multi-city North American and European tour beginning next month.
Fans reacted with a mix of confusion and concern on social media. Some expressed sympathy for the victim’s family, while others called for patience as investigators piece together the circumstances surrounding the case.
Law enforcement officials are expected to release additional details in the coming days, including the results of a preliminary autopsy. Until then, uncertainty continues to hang over one of music’s fastest-rising young stars.
