D4vd’s record label is refusing to promote the release of the deluxe version of his album Friday — as homicide cops investigate photos of the singer with the teenage runaway found dismembered in the back of his abandoned Tesla, according to reports
Universal Music Group, Sony Music Publishing and Wasserman have put all promotional activities for the popstar on hold as police continue to investigate how 15-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez ended up dead in the car impounded in a lot in California’s Hollywood Hills, TMZ reported.
The New York-born singer also canceled his latest shows.
D4vd’s last post on Instagram before Rivas’ body was discovered is a promotion for the deluxe version of his album, “Withered,” which was first released on Darkroom and Interscope Records in April, charting at No. 13 on the Billboard 200 with more than 521 million streams on Spotify.
The unpromoted new version of the record is due out Friday — just days after cops searched a Los Angeles home where the 20-year-old singer has lived close to where the teen runaway’s body was found.
Newly surfaced photos showing D4vd and Rivas together are being investigated by cops, law enforcement sources told the Los Angeles Times.
Rivas’ mother previously told TMZ her daughter was dating someone named David — how D4vd is pronounced — before she was found wrapped in plastic and decomposing in the trunk of the Tesla.
No charges have been filed in the case, and the singer is cooperating with investigators, the LA Times noted.
