Travis Barker and DJ AM are in critical condition:

Former Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and a popular disc jockey were critically injured in a Learjet crash in South Carolina that killed four people, authorities said Saturday. Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen said the plane carrying six people was departing shortly before midnight Friday when air traffic controllers reporting seeing sparks. The plane went off a runway and crashed on a nearby road, she said. Hospital spokeswoman Beth Frits said Barker and DJ AM, whose real name is Adam Goldstein, were in critical condition at a burn center in Augusta, Ga., about 75 miles southwest of Columbia.

  • True Love

    It’s crazy how out of 6 people, the two celebrities are the one’s who made it. My heart goes out to Christina Aguillera who just had AM’s baby and Shana who’s really trying to make things work with Travis….sad sad day. Oh yeah and to Kim Kardashian who was freaking Travis on the side. Now she has to find a new side deal

  • Hater

    @tru3playboy

  • Soulwoman

    I hate plans! R.I.P. to those that lost their life, and I wish Travis and AM a speedy recovery.

  • Hater

  • Laydacris

    @ True love

    Christina had a baby for Jordan Bratman, Not DJ AM. A.M used to be engaged to Nicole Richie. Prayers to all the families involved and the victims.

  • Brook Lynn Chocolate gyrl. (Ok I’m over Loui V)

    OMG I hope you guys get better real soon. I love DJ AM

  • shavon denise

    This is crazy! I just saw the footage on MSN and everyone else of course died on the plan but them. A witness said that they were thrown from the plane and were on fire in the road. Both were trying to pat the flames off of each other. Everyone should care because Travis Barker AND DJ AM have always bigged up hip hop. All hip hop artists love Travis and he always is accessble. I hope they have a speedy recovering and pull through this tragic situation.

  • tiggyy

    God be with them,and rest in peace those who didn’t make it.

  • Brook Lynn Chocolate gyrl. (Ok I’m over Loui V)

    @Shavon Denise

  • BigBoi01

    This is fcked up!! I live here in Columbia, SC & I was down in 5 points last night where they held the concert. The concert ended pretty early too; crazy to wake up and see this sad news.

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    I hope they are alright. I like Travis and blink 182.

    On another note,

    If you are in the Charlotte metro area, Barack Obama will be here tomorrow, Sept the 21st, campaigning. Come out and support the rally.

  • ChineseChickenWingz

  • Official TimeHater

    It’s awful, the pictures and the recounts, I hope they both end up ok, my prayers go out to them and the family of those who died.

  • ARTOFWAR

    Travis Barker has just died, while in surgery. DJ AM, Is currently in surgery, and in critical condition.

    My deepest regards, and sympathies, to their families, and friends…… ARTOFWAR

  • Necy

    @ art of war

  • Ashankashay

    This is really messed up….I dont wish death on anyone..this should be a wake up call to everyone..life can be taken away whenever God wants it.

  • Necy

    I wish that people would get their freaking info correctly!!! Travis was severely burned from the waist down and will recuperate after surgery… DJ AM is the one who is badly burned mostly in the face and is still in critical condition.. Travis’s assistant is one of the people who passed away!! R.I.P… and the only reason why these two survived was because THEY JUMP OUT OF THE BURNING PLANE!!!OMG

  • Necy

    TRAVIS IS STILL ALIVE!!! please don’t listen to the idiots on here…

  • vegasgal

    @Hater: that’s a really ignorant statement. You wouldn’t like it if someone black died and white people said who cares about those n*****s. Four people died in that crash.

    I love Travis, and I loved his reality show, I hope him and DJ AM make it through this.

  • HI HATERS aka dre

    men why travis whyyyyyyyyyyyy, i grew up listening to that dude and his band!! and his exwife is hotttt, i know he is okay already……speedy recovery buddie!!

  • african_4_eva

    Man, blessings to all those involved.

  • Necy

    these 2 guys are bad asses!! they’ll get through this… how many people would jump off a plane??? Damn, they are brave fighters.

  • http://blackunity@gsn.com latoyia

    excuse me but white folks always say negative things about blacks when theres death also, hell when Kanye’s mother died they call her a monkey and talked bad about Kanye’s music so fuc* them whiteys and they also talked bad about Katrina people o dont tell me white folks dont talk about blacks when death happens, i thought that ish they sadi aout Kanye after his mom died was just aeful and a loe down thing to say, but let blacks say something then eerybody wants to jump on them, hell no fuc* them!

  • http://blackunity@gsn.com latoyia

    excuse the typos folks typing too fast ” corrected words, low, so about, said, everybody and awful.lol.

    !

  • ARTOFWAR

    @NECY….. The information of TRAVIS’S death just came off the wire.

    Now lets hope it’s not true, there are conflicting story’s about what is happening with them both, right now. However there were some deaths, involved regardless.

    By the way. It is usually the first person to call someone else and idiot, that is the true idiot. Get it NECY?

    (Nuff said.) ARTOFWAR…

  • always knew

    My condolences to the families…

  • CHRISSY

    OMG, SPARE THEIR LIVES JEHOVAH…

    TRAVIS IS NOT DEAD! STop saying that sh*t because that is not funny! Some of you are nuts, and no one wants to hear any racist comments either. I love Travis and he is one cool dude! I hope he and DJ AM make a full recovery. I was sick when I heard this this morning.

  • http://deleted CriticXtreme::

    From experience, some times it pays to fly commercial.

  • Sit yo five dollar a*s down before I make some change ( I pay the cost to be the Bo$$…)

    They will be fine…they are here in Augusta at MCG , one of the best hospitals in the country…God bless them…

  • kenya

    don’t know who these guys are, but hope they recover. darn why couldn’t it have been two pedophiles?

    How old are his kids?

  • linds08

    Film student, you kind of intrigue me because you don’t think I’m white. Is that weird? haha.

    I’m definitely a HUGE fan of both of these guys as I’ve seen them perform 3 times. AM plays all kinds of music and Trav is an incredible drummer. I pray they are OK

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    linds08

    When did I intrigue you? I don’t remember having a convo with you. Which post was it?

  • elle

    Oh no! Not my Travis! *sigh* I pray that they both get better. This is sad.. :(

  • linds08

    It’s the only time I have ever posted about Aubry a couple days ago. I just can’t believe some of the hate that spilled on this site, but I’m white so I just keep my mouth shut. I guess that day I had had enough….and too much wine, so I decided to comment! No biggie though, I’m gonna slip back into anonymity here pretty quick!

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    linds08

    I remember you now. Did I ever say I hated white people?

  • ARTOFWAR

    @Film Student……. Travis has a baby girl named, Alabama Barker. She was born in December of 2005. ARTOFWAR.

  • linds08

    No you definitely didn’t, that’s why I remembered you. I just laughed because you said you didn’t think I was white. In fact, not many people on her say they HATE white people, but you know when you get that general vibe. This thread is pretty refreshing though. (not the story, the messages people are leaving)

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    linds08

    That day you posted there was a Jewish Lady that was making racist comments. A lot of people were commenting out of frustration. TMZ has racist comments all time, but I don’t assume all white people hate all black people.

    I’m sorry if you felt that I or anybody else was being racist toward you. As a man, I can admit if I made you feel uncomfortable.

  • leesh beesh

    dang this is soo shocking…im so sad for the families….

    anyway not to sound crazy or anything…but isnt it crazy that the only people who lived were the famous ones? dam….

    well i hope they recover soon! and make i through this!

  • linds08

    Iknow that Jewish woman is OUT OF CONTROL. I feel like she says that stuff just to get a rise out of people…it’s unbelievable.

    And thanks for the apology, I don’t want people thinking I’m overly sensitive. I accept that when you come to gossip sites (any gossip site) there will always be ignorant fools saying stuff…

    I wonder where Jewish woman is on this thread since AM is Jewish. Wait,scratch that. I don’twant to hear anything from her.

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    Why were you drinking so much that night?

  • linds08

    I put my 15 year old golden retriver to sleep that day…it’s been a bad week

  • Soloman Salazar

    We will be having them in our prayers

  • Akbar Abu Maleek

    Travis is one hell of a drummer and we all should wish him and the other guy a speedy recovery. We are thinking of you bro!

  • http://www.cnn.com ROCKY THOMPSON

    GOD BLESS THEM

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    Sorry to hear that. I still don’t understand what was so weird about me thinking that you weren’t white. I mean, you stated that you were drunk, and your statements didn’t appear to come from someone that was drunk. Normally intoxicated people don’t have zero to few spelling errors.

  • Hussein Jones

    Hopefully the guys will pull through and make a full recovery. Planes are really less dangerous than cars, but unfortunately these things happen and are beyond control

  • linds08

    Oh thank you very much for that.

    I guess it was weird to me because I didn’t see anything in my posts that suggested I was a black person pretending to be white, so I’m sure in my state I thought it was extra amusing that you thought so. I guess the novelty has worn off by now, haha.

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    Stay away from the wine. LOL!! Go out with some of your friends so that they can cheer you up.

  • Kermat Defrog

    Does anyone have an update on their conditions?? I have been searching other sites however the information has not been updated/

  • linds08

    You’re very right. Well I’m going to see Janet Jackson tonight so I’m sure that sex show will be awesome! Nice talking to you by the way.

  • Kermat Defrog

    It sounds like mechanical error on the plane

  • Kermat Defrog

    thanks for the tips dude

  • edawg

    his dick was burned off..

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    Likewise. Have fun.

  • tru3playboy

    At the person asking for an update…

    Travis is burned from the waist down and DJ AM’s face is severely burned. Most likely the flames must have blown up in his face when they jumped from the plane. Travis must have been closest to the exit.

  • Kermat Defrog

    Thanks for the update dude

  • Teeza

    @ hater…tru3playboy was being real, as well. You are not exempt from death and when one of your loved ones is tragically killed or injured and people are saying “who cares or they deserved it.” Eat your words…RIGHT BACK AT YOU!

  • Carla

    I have nothing bad to say about Travis or D.J a.m but get well, too bad for the other four people who perished, :(

  • Terrence Jones

    White people were the original haters but it seems as though we have taken hatred to another level. We hate other races, each other, and most of all some of us are consumed with self-hatred. Can any wise person explain this to me or care to discuss?????????

  • 2cute4u

    God bless them

  • Nita

    why is this uncategorized instead of ‘in white folks news’? it’s sad about them, but

    Artofwar

    Good luck on that screenplay.

  • Prince

    thats so tragic i just lost both of my grandmothers i feel so bad for those four familes may god be with them

  • Soldier Of Truth

    Geewiz the bottom line is we are all human, your ethnicity has nothing to do with your hatred or dislike for another group of people.

    Hatred isn’t born it’s raised! Ignorant A$$ NI##ERS make black people look bad by not educating themselves and overcoming stupid a$$ thoughts & comments like some of the 1s stated here!

    All white people are not racist, I can’t speak 4 the other DJ but Travis has helped many Hip Hop artists along the way that just so happened to be black so why the phuck would U let some BS like that spew from your foul lips via that comment?

    Like it was stated you are human & your day is coming & I pray that by that time U have asked 4 forgiveness so that u may be able to have a better after life, because you & every 1 that thinks as you do are on a 1 way trip straight to the depths of hell!

    2 wrongs don’t make a right people damn! My prayers go out to all of the families that lost a loved one as well as the 2 survivors. Nothing is promised to an of us, so make sure you tell the people that mean the most 2 you how you feel about them because you never know when it may be the last opportunity u will have!!

    1L to all of my real African Americans, Caucasian Americans, Latin Americans & everyone else that stands on the side what’s right!!

  • 2cute4u

    Prince ditch the glasses boo! You are not a rapper and even if you were they look ridiculous. Someone like Young Joc can get away with wearing them because he is ugly as hell to begin with

  • Terrance Jones

    Black on black crime continues to plague our inner cities! Care to explain why this is the white man’s fault too?

  • WordtotheWise

    Soldier of Truth, let me ask you something. The statement you made: “Ignorant A$$ NI##ERS make black people look bad by not educating themselves and overcoming stupid a$$ thoughts & comments like some of the 1s stated here!” 1) Do you attribute what they do to all black people b/c why should a few ignorant people make black people look bad, and 2) do ignorant white people represent whites? You see, this is the plantation mentality. We get all hot and bothered when whites are put down and then attribute negativity of some blacks to the whole race. If I misunderstood you, forgive me, but I find it ironic that black people will spit nails at such offenses, and then say nothing when blacks are insulted as a whole. Please understand, I am NOT justifying negative and hateful comment at all.

  • http://anonymous@yahoo.com anonymous

    kenya, why it couldnt have been those “to catch a predator white idiots yeah some blacks but 98% white men.

  • WordtotheWise

    Terrance Jones, who said anything about black on black crime being the white man’s fault? I don’t know if you were directing that question at me b/c I haven’t read all the posts, but please point out where someone said black on black crime is the white man’s fault.

  • http://anonymous@yahoo.com anonymous

    black men please praise your black women like the white man praises his, jewish woman didnt come from nowhere you know more praises for the one who can use your comb.

  • Terrance Jones

    I never directly meant black on black crime was the white man’s fault, my wording may have been flawed somewhat. I have read many posts on here during the weekdays and some posters tend to blame other races for nearly everything. I never post during the week for that very matter because with my job I dont have the time to argue with one-sideded folks.

  • WordtotheWise

    Terrance, I absolutely agree. There are some black people that blame others, including one another for issues. Some black men blame black women for their issues and some black women do the same. We need to quite blaming and get about our business and take responsibility for our own actions or we will never rise.

  • http://checkmeout Film Student

    Wordtothewise

    I was just telling someone the same thing earlier today. That’s the problem with us sometimes. When we makes mistakes, we’re always quick to point the finger or blame faults on one person. It amazes when I read certain post, it’s never their own faults or mistakes. Until everybody be held accountable for their own actions, we will continue to regress.

  • Terrance Jones

    Peace out my brothers and sisters!

  • WordtotheWise

    Film Student>>>Absolutely! You’re right. We will never move forward until we can look at the man or woman in the mirror and take responsibility for OUR actions.

    Bye Terrance.

    wow sorry 2 hear that God bless their families

  • Afro – Latina

    This story is getting more tragic by the hour …

    What should have been a day for celebration turned into a nightmare for Chris Baker’s family. Travis Barker’s pal and business partner who went by “Lil’ Chris,” was on his way home to be by his wife’s side in time for the birth of his second child when he died in a private plane crash in South Carolina last night, E! News has confirmed.

  • Afro – Latina

    Although DJ AM (born Adam Goldstein) “was completely terrified and traumatized” from the tragic plane crash, he was conscious long enough to call his mother from the ambulance to let her know what had happened. While Travis Barker suffered burns from the waist down, DJ AM suffered severe burns to his face. He is currently in a doctor-induced coma so he can “undergo skin grafts in an attempt to repair some of the extensive burn damage,” reports Us Weekly.

  • It’sREALLYme

    I will DEFINATELY keep them both in my prayers. I am a HUGE Travis Barker fan… so this really upsets me… : (

  • BrRss

    RIP. man these 2 g’d up during this one

  • elle

    Praying that they pull through.

    My condolences to the passengers who lost their lives..

    Although death is inevitable, it’s never something we are prepared for. EVER. People should learn to be a little more compassionate around these parts, and save the ignorant heartless comments for the less meaningful posts.

  • Can’t Touch This

    I cant stand these racist posters. I will pray now

  • shalane

    r.i.p to the ones that were lost. i can’t believe that first comment.coonery.anywho im glad they were ok. travis barker is really talented and they make great music together.

  • tru3playboy

    I can’t stand racist assholes. Say positive things or don’t post at all. No one needs to see that negativity. Shame on you for pushing your racist views on people when a tragedy happens.

    Anyone who doesn’t know much about Travis and how he supported hip hop music, go to youtube and look him up. Dope Boys with the Game is one of the songs that he was a part of.

    Take ur heads out of ur asses people we’re all human, have some compassion for ur fellow man regardless of what color they are. Smh.

    im actually gonna pray for the racists fools on here, coz god don’t love them

  • Soldier Of Truth

    WordtotheWise-

    I feel what you are saying but my point in saying that Ni##ers make Black people look bad was because when other ethnicities see 1 or 2 blacks do stupid shyit they fell we are all that way especially some white people! I’m not defending Travis & the other DJ because their white I could give a damn about their color! As I would hope they or anyone else would stand up for me or someone else in the same situation..

    Those guys could lose their lives families have been and will be devastated; so why speak ill will on them?

    Like I said I stand on the side of right and to bad mouth these people in a situation such as this is absolutely WRONG!! There is no justification for it.

    Black White, Purple or Orange we are all people and as the late great MLK said we should be judged by the content of our character not our ethnic backgrounds!

    I’m against any one that hates another group of people simply because of the color of their skin!! That’s where I stand.

    TRAVIS IS MY FAVORITE WHITE BOY AND THE BADDEST DRUMMER ALIVE! I HOPE HE AND DJ A.M.RECOVER REAL SOON.

    Man…I love Travis. He’s a bad boy on those drums. I pray Travis and DJ AM make a full recovery.

  • Ms. T.

    Jermaine Dupri visited Travis at the hospital yesterday and he said that he is in good spirits and resting. Mandy Moore visited DJ AM and reported the same.

    I really like both of these guys. I wish them both a speedy recovery. God Bless!!!

  • Lady D

    I like Travis… I did hear on the news that he was burned from the waste down. Poor thang! I wish them both the best, and my love goes out to their families. If there were any other survivors, I wish the same to them as well.

    I am praying for them and hoping that they have a full recovery. I send my prayers out to the families of the deceased

    Like black people trouble can arise when it is not taken seriously. You must keep the finger or blame faults on DJ AM.
