A preliminary autopsy report indicates that Ellen DeGeneres’ show DJ Stephen “tWitch” Boss committed suicide. He was 40.
In a statement to People magazine, his 34-year-old wife Allison Holker stated, “I have to tell my husband Stephen has left us. It is with the heaviest of hearts.” “Stephen brought light into every space he entered. Above all else, he valued his family, friends, and community. He believed that the best way to lead was to lead with love and light. He was our family’s rock, the best husband and father, and an example to his followers.
What Happened To Him?
According to law enforcement officials, Holker visited a Los Angeles Police Department station on Tuesday and was “frantic” because her husband had allegedly left the house without his car, which was unusual for him to do. A short while later, authorities received a call regarding a shooting at a hotel in Los Angeles.
How Did He Passed Away?
According to the autopsy report, Boss was discovered dead from what seemed to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to his head. Boss checked into the hotel on Monday morning, according to a receptionist at the Oak Tree Inn in Monrovia, California, who declined to elaborate for The Daily Beast.
Boss Career
Boss placed second in the television talent contest Star Search in 2003 and made it all the way to the semifinals of MTV’s The Wade Robson Project. He helped train other YG Entertainment singers like Big Bang and created routines for South Korean pop/R&B singer Seven. He appeared in Blades of Glory in 2007 as an uncredited “flamboyant dancer” and in Hairspray as a Maybelle’s Store Dancer.
In a tweet, DeGeneres expressed her “heartbreak” and referred to Boss as her “family” and “pure love and light.”

Boss had previously participated in the 2008 So You Think You Can Dance season, placing second. Boss was welcomed back to the competition in later seasons as one of the show’s “all-stars” after one of his dances with rival Katee Shean received an Emmy nomination for choreography. Boss joins the show’s 17th season judging panel in 2022.
Boss Relationship
After getting married in 2013, Boss and Holker had two kids together. Weslie Renae Boss, the daughter of Holker, was also adopted by Boss. Boss frequently posted pictures of Holker and their three children, and last week he wrote that the feeling of togetherness during the holiday season was his “favourite part.”
In her statement, Holker stated, “To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt.
