Rivas’s mother told reporters her daughter had mentioned dating a man named “David” shortly before she went missing. Even more shocking, an autopsy revealed the teen shared the exact same tattoo design on her finger that D4vd is known for—one reading “Shh…” in cursive letters.
Celeste Rivas was reported missing from her Lake Elsinore, California, home in April 2024. Her mother admitted the teen had a history of running away but always returned—until this time.
Employees at a Los Angeles tow yard made the gruesome discovery after a Tesla, sitting unclaimed for days, began emitting a foul stench. When workers finally popped the trunk, they found the girl’s head and torso wrapped in a plastic bag. Her black leggings, yellow bracelet, and matching jewelry were still intact.
As the story exploded in the media, D4vd’s representatives issued a brief statement: “D4vd has been informed about what’s happened,” a spokesperson told NBC4. “And although he is still on tour, he is fully cooperating with the authorities.”
NBC4 also confirmed that the singer was performing in Minneapolis the night Rivas’s body was discovered. However, in the days following, D4vd abruptly canceled upcoming tour dates, and major brands like Crocs and Hollister have already cut ties with the embattled performer.
At the time of her disappearance, Celeste was only 13 years old according to missing posters circulated in 2024, the New York Post reported. The Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s Office has so far listed the cause of death as “deferred,” pending further investigation.
Meanwhile, police have been combing through evidence taken from a house near the tow lot where the Tesla was stored. ABC7 cameras captured officers hauling away computer equipment and other items from the property, though authorities have not confirmed any direct connection to the vehicle or D4vd himself.
Neighbors told reporters the Tesla had been parked in front of that house for weeks before the horrifying discovery. Friends and acquaintances remembered Celeste as a bright, bubbly girl whose life ended in a tragedy no one could have imagined.
As the investigation continues, the once-rising music star now faces a media firestorm and a public demanding answers about what really happened between D4vd and Celeste Rivas—and why her final days ended in such unspeakable horror.
