D4vd Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
This past week has seen dramatic developments in the life and career of D4vd, the 20-year-old singer-songwriter whose real name is David Anthony Burke. Known for viral hits like Romantic Homicide and his meteoric rise via TikTok, where he counts over 3.8 million followers, D4vd has been thrust into the epicenter of a high-profile police investigation after the body of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas was discovered severely decomposed in the trunk of an impounded Tesla registered to him, as reported by ABC News. The LAPD has confirmed neither charges nor arrests, but the investigation is ongoing, with sources telling The Economic Times that D4vd has been cooperating since the moment authorities reached out.
The story has dominated headlines and forced immediate changes to D4vd's public schedule. The remaining U.S. stops and several upcoming European dates on his Withered world tour were abruptly canceled, with Ticketmaster and associated venues scrubbing his appearances from their sites. Sources including The Associated Press describe how even his long-anticipated appearance at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles was quietly removed, in addition to multiple European shows now marked as canceled.
Social media has amplified speculation and controversy, with a video posted by a TikToker purporting to show activity at D4vd’s Hollywood home as police reportedly searched the property, collecting electronics and examining security footage—actions detailed by The US Mirror and further corroborated by Digital Music News. Meanwhile, D4vd, who once shared daily posts and interacted with fans, has gone nearly silent, restricting comments and removing content from his accounts. His last public post promoted a deluxe edition of his debut album, Withered, but made no mention of the investigation, as noted by the Los Angeles Times.
Brand partners and collaborators have taken swift steps to distance themselves. ABC News highlighted that both Hollister and Crocs pulled their campaign material featuring D4vd, while fellow artists like Kali Uchis are reported to be withdrawing single releases and appearances tied to his name. His team has yet to issue a public statement, and his lawyer remains unreachable according to multiple sources.
Circulating videos add a troubling dimension. The Economic Times and the New York Post detailed a resurfaced clip in which D4vd and Celeste Rivas make light of controversial subjects, prompting further outrage and intense online scrutiny of his lyrics and imagery—especially those referencing death and violence.
Despite the cloud of uncertainty, it is important to remember—according to legal experts speaking with US Mirror and ABC News—D4vd has not been charged with any crime and law enforcement has not officially named him a suspect. The medical examiner has yet to determine the cause of Celeste’s death, leaving many questions unanswered.
In closing, this has been a whirlwind week in both music news and legal circles, with developments around D4vd that are certain to have lasting consequences for his biography, career, and public image.
