Avicii Opened Up About Substance Abuse, Poor Health, & Overwhelming Fame In 2016 Interview
Like countless others, we are still reeling from the news of Avicii's passing.
As we reported, the talented DJ passed away on Friday at the young age of 28. Although he has been battling health issues for years, his cause of death remains unreported at this time.
In a 2016 interview, the artist (real name Tim Bergling) talked about his poor health and overwhelming fame shortly after announcing his retirement from live touring. This all came after he was suffering from several health issues, including acute pancreatitis partly due to excessive drinking. After having his gallbladder and appendix removed in 2014, he canceled a series of shows in attempt to recover.

He told The Hollywood Reporter at the time of his decision to retire:

Woah Brandi! You should rather wrestle with me, the both completely naked…
Kyle needs to give her sister a break and throws pizza all over Eilens home and didn't make an effort to pick up what if it was changed around, started to dislike her a lot
Kyle LIES. She took her sister's house.
Kim was NOT DRUNK OR DRINKING. She was ill and on serious meds for her medical condition.
Brandi was grabbed TWICE, violently by Kyle, it was on TV. She was shoved so hard, she lost her pizza and stumbled. Kyle was so aggressive in her WANT to interrogate Kim and stop her from the freedom of simply leaving a party that she scratched Brandi's arm.
Then, on WWHL, there was more video showing Brandi's scratched arm.
Kim simply wanted to go home quietly and spend the evening with her terminally ill ex-husband. She told Kyle to leave her alone more than once, that she did not want to talk to her, and that she wanted to leave. Kyle chased after them as she quietly left the house, blocking egress, grabbing Brandi, causing self-involved drama and all to demand more camera time. Yes, there is nothing Kyle loves more than discussing her sister's issues and talking about others. It's her only hope for screen time. Why? Because she is boring as all heck.
If Kyle truly cared, she wouldn't have made it all about HER, driven her sister safely home and asked about it all OFF CAMERA. That's what Brandi did in the limo.
My God, Brandi is a total piece of dog sh!t. But I still want to eat her up!
Kim is a drug addict and Brandi is too. Druggies stick together like flies to poo!
More stupid nonsense TV. Who are you people that watch such crap?
Re: beach – The same people who read Perez Hilton! Just like you!
Brandi Glanville is gross!!! Period end of story. Kim and Kyle are sisters and she should not have gotten in the middle. At no point in the night did Kyle attack her sister she was concerned for her. That whole I need to protect Kim thing was nonsense and I really wish they would get Brandi off the show. She seriously makes me never want to watch.
My God,Leann is a total piece of dog sh!t. But I still want to eat her up for PAYING ME TO USE GWEN'S NAME TO MAKE POSTS 4, 5, AND 7!
