DJ AM -- Spared From Second Plane Crash

DJ AMUPDATE -- DJ AM's publicist flatly denies that he was ever booked on the Continental flight that crashed in Buffalo. His rep tells us, "DJ AM was never booked on the Continental flight that crashed last month, in fact he was performing that evening in NYC. That crash nor the one he was involved in, has prevented him from flying -- although he has tremendously scaled back his east coast residencies to focus on his recovery."

DJ AM, in an incredible sequence of events, was scheduled to fly on the doomed Continental flight that crashed in Buffalo and killed 49 people -- it would have been his second plane crash in six months.

According to a rep for a club in Chicago, AM backed out of a gig in Chicago because he doesn't want to fly anymore. The club rep says AM was booked on the Continental flight, but had a bad feeling about it and canceled and drove instead.

DJ AM now says his flying days are over. He will only book gigs if he can drive to them.

18. Unless the airline steps forward to validate his claim, please excuse me for doubting this. What reason would he have to travel from NY to Buffalo that fateful night? I also had the winning $260 million MegaMillions Lottery ticket but I accidentally threw it away. Sounds too much like a cry for attention and some more time in the media spotlight.

19. Too bad he wasn't on the plane, maybe it would've stopped his scumbag lawsuit against the families of the pilots involved in the first crash.

20. TMZ will you please confirm this? Sounds waaaaaay too coincidental to be true...

23. Uhh, this dude need to go check his karma chart as he seems the bit of really bad luck. Dude, maybe visit a childrens hospital..or help someone in need..maybe the "final destination" syndrome will pass.

24. It's just a coincidence, of course. It is disturbing, though.

Just because he had a crash and a near miss does not mean anything for the future. The odds are the same for him as anyone else. It's all chance. We like to see patterns because we evolved not to miss any. Sometimes we see patterns, though, when they don't exist.

Still,

creepy.

26. Hate to say it but he should always have a gut feeling about something going wrong. This guy's attitude, especially after the plane crash, is just horrible. Maybe life is trying to get a message through to this guy about how he has treated other people throughout his own life. The first crash didn't do it for sure, maybe this second brush will set him straight, or maybe a plane will crash on his car instead.

27. Ane everyone wonders why I don't like to fly on planes and why I vowed to never fly on a plane again. He is seriously jinxed. I would never get on a plane if he was on it. (Almost) 2 crashes in a matter of 6 months? Oh, hell no! With geese getting into planes' engines, in the winder the wings getting frozen and the planes just falling from the sky(the plane DJ AM was supposed to be on crashed because of freeze). No planes for me. Buses, boats, trains and cars are just fine for me.

28. There is this belief among spiritual teachers that what you think about becomes your reality. Whether positive or negative, it doesn’t make a difference. Put it in your head and it’s bound to show up at some point in your life.
