It will be “several weeks” before the report comes back, and the medical examiner won’t speculate on the cause until then.

A friend of DJ AM’s recently told press, “In talking with him, there was nothing that led me to believe anything was wrong. He was upset over his recent breakup, sure, but Adam was all business talking about his gigs for the upcoming week.”

Elaborating on the potential new show, Paula explains, “It would be a lot of fun variety with a ton of unexpected stuff and tributes to everyday people getting their big chance.”

Abdul - who recently filmed two episodes of Lifetime’s “Drop Dead Diva” and will host VH1’s “Divas Live” on Sept. 17 – says her post-“Idol” life “Has been incredible. I feel like I’m having the best time of my life right now.”
