DJ Tiësto not dead

Contrary to rumours, DJ Tiësto has assured fans that he is not dead following a hoax news report suggesting he had been killed in a car crash.

This morning (July 7) a report began circulating on the internet claiming that the Dutch mixer had died in California – but he has since released a statement saying he is alive and well.

"I don't know where these stories come from, but I'm very much alive and well and looking forward to the rest of my tour," Tiësto said.

Tiësto is set to play London's Victoria Park on July 30, with Pendulum set to support.

Wicked!
