D4vd has abruptly canceled the U.S. leg of his tour following the discovery of a dismembered body in a car linked to an ongoing homicide investigation.
Authorities confirmed that the remains, found in a bag inside the front trunk of an impounded Tesla, belonged to 15-year-old Celeste Rivas, a girl reported missing more than a year ago.
D4vd, whose real name is David Anthony Burke, first canceled a scheduled performance in Seattle earlier this month, citing “unforeseen circumstances.” Within days, his management announced that the remainder of his U.S. dates would be postponed as the investigation into Rivas’ death gathered national attention.

Despite the cancellations in the United States, the artist is still slated to perform in Europe in October and November, followed by a December run in Australia.
While no criminal charges have been filed against the singer in connection with Rivas’ death, major fashion and lifestyle brands, including Crocs and Hollister, confirmed that he has been dropped from ongoing promotional campaigns. Reports have circulated that D4vd may have been involved with the teen, but he has not confirmed the rumors and the LAPD has not commented on any connection between the singer and the deceased.
Meanwhile, Grammy-winning singer Kali Uchis announced she is working to pull a collaborative track she recorded with him. “I cannot in good conscience release this song at this time,” she said in a statement shared on Instagram.
