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.

34. Seriously? I would like to see the original ticket or passenger manifest. Somehow DJ AM sitting on a commuter flight from NJ to Buffalo ... BUFFALO ... makes absolutely no sense. Prove it.

35. Or just maybe, the plane would not have gone down if he had been on it (or there would have been survivors). Think about it. Nobody knows what effect changing a variable could have had on events.

36. Oh please, this is total B.S., a D-list celebrity trying to stay in the spotlight. As mentioned above, if he could show us a reservation then I'd believe it.

37. Show me the passenger list with his name on it for me to really believe this one.

38. This whole thing is just like Final Destination!

39. This is 100% false, I work with the promoter that was bringing DJ AM in to Buffalo that week. He was scheduled to fly into Toronto, and when the plane crashed he ended up not flying in at all. He was flying in from L.A, this story is 100% false, he did cancel his show here because of the flight but was never suppose to be on that exact flight!

40. If I was him I would take that as a MESSAGE from above to NEEVR FLY AGAIN! BE safe DJ AM!

42. Final Destination is what came to my mind too. I don't blame him for never getting on another plane.

43. DJ AM has to be grateful to be alive and forget about the lawsuit with Travis.
Now, is he going to sue for almost aboard a plane that later crashed?
When God says that's it, that's it!!!

44. That;'s just creepy. Why would the guy lie? Its easy enough to prove or disprove. I woudl be freaked out if that happened to me. Like the guy on final destination being paronoid of everything.

45. If we learned anything from FINAL DESTINATION its that it wont matter if he flies again. The Grim Reaper will get him one way or another. Like the one where the kid was grilling burgers and the gas canister exploded and his arm came down right on his mothers plate !
