Casey Johnson was pronounced dead Monday morning in a Los Angeles area home, Usmagazine.com confirms. The heiress to the Johnson & Johnson fortune was 30 years old and recently made headlines as the apparent fiancee to reality star Tila Tequila.
Look back on stars we lost in 2009
"The Johnson family is mourning its tragic loss, and asks for privacy during
this very difficult time," said a rep for the Johnson family on Monday evening.
"At this point, it appears to be a natural death," LAPD spokesperson Sara Faden tells Usmagazine.com. "There was no evidence of foul play. The coroner's office will now take over the investigation and conduct their toxicology screenings."
Tila Tequila (real name: Tila Nguyen), 28, also confirmed the tragic news on her Twitter:
"Everyone please pray 4 my Wifey Casey Johnson. She has passed away. Thank u for all ur love and support but I will be offline to be w family"

Johnson was mother to a three year-old girl, Ava. Johnson adopted Ava in Kazakhstan in 2007, but the little girl is now in the custody of Johnson's mother, Sale Johnson, in Manhattan.
Tila spoke to UsMagazine.com Dec. 22 about her relationship with Johnson. "She's just the most beautiful person I've ever met." The reality star said they got engaged "a couple weeks ago," and that she planned to adopt young Ava.

Tell Us What You Think
127ogmg sad
its sad that she died but im still not quite sure what she died from?? can someone clarify for me because im a little bit confused
That's sad, but all I've been hearing is that Tila is the one who died.
now, lets think about this... Tila was engaged to casey, a reality star, out for fame, hey Tila have you forgot, you were the fiance', you are intitled to all, if any, money from her family? I am waiting to see how long this crazy brainiack will take to figure that one out!!! crazy be-othch!!!
Somebody plz investigate Tila's background. Normal ppl do not act they way she does. She is of no value to society. Attention-seeking narcissist.
spelling cop must have no life. why does someone's opinion make them moronic? you seem to be a fan of this trashy woman. why anyone would defend a narcissistic celeb is beyond me.
I saw that too spelling cop. Lol!
i love how she finds out the "love of her life" is dead and the first thing she can think to do is twitter. wow that must be some love.
I find all of these people moronic...but in Tila's defense, she didn't misspell Casey Johnson's name.
Tila is no role model. She can't even speak proper English. I mean, what is "wifey." Was she married to her? GROW UP PLEASE!!!!!!!! Cannot stand this woman. How she got famous is beyond me...........
Where in the heck does Hilton and whoever else think they are entitled to the dogs and Johnson's personal belongings. What happened to the parents in all this. Oh that's right. they are the rich and famous so they have other people do their work for them. I get so sick and tired of hearing about the rich and famous and that includes Tiger. Us normal down to earth well grounded people only can dream about having all the things these people have and can buy. But you know what, I wouldn't want any of it if that's what it does to you. Casey was a disgrace to the Johnson name. It will be interesting what the toxigoly tests show. Betcha there were illegal drugs in her system. My gosh look at the two - they look all drugged out. this is exactly what happens to kids that come from families with money. they get everything they want, they get to go shopping at store i only dream about and they go shopping abroad the country, they have severants who wait on them hand and foot. You know what. I blame her parents right along with her death. What happened to the family values. Guess the parents didn't set any. They party too. Look at Hilton's parents. All these people party and live the live of booze and drugs and it will kill you every time.
oh well, one less contestant on celebrity rehab... on a related note: tila's not even pregnant and shes already dilated to 8 centimeters...
Disgusting. She probably died from some disease that trash gave her.
How on earth did this trainwreck adopt a child?! I bet this was an inside job, she was a disgrace to the Johnson name. Sorry, Id rather buy generic bandaids then give someone playing tonsil hockey with the biggest dirtbag of all Tila Tequila a nickel. Hopefully that poor little girl will grow up in a stable home now-far away from trashy tequila.
You know reading the comments concerning this young lady death is most of you are just plain mean spirted. And for you that say you are a "christian" that will keep you out of heaven just as much as you are saying about Ms Johnson. Remember he/she without sin?
ChristBride the Bible also says to love one another and you shall be judged as you judge and all sin is equal in the eyes of The Lord...Your judgement of something you know nothing about is no different than homosexuality or even murder. I am a lesbian who loves The Lord and believes that He came He died and He rose on the 3rd day for me, you and all mankind. Being gay doesn't mean we're animals or stupid or any different than someone else. We are all people. We're different in who we come home to at the end of the day. I pray for The Johnson Family as well as Tila and all of this young womans friends. Its a terrible thing to lose someone you love, no matter the relationship you have with them...God Bless and keep you.
Dear ChristBride - I am a lesbian and a Christian. Tila does not represent all lesbians, just as I will continue to have faith that you, with your ignorant, narrow-minded, self-righteous, hate-filled words, do not reflect all striaght women of God. God Bless you
Tila Nguyen is to blame she is toxic, everything she touches dies.
who says she needs help from god or any other supernatural being? The woman is dead and it's ashame at such a young age, but forgiveness? From what? From people that are so hung up on their own way of thinking, they believe everyone else believes the same? Get over yourselves, your no angels, your not supernatural and you sure don't know what goes on after one dies. Take care of your own lives and leave the dead to the dead. You people are so terrified of death that you believe the stuff that was force fed you as children in regard to an afterlife. No one's been and come back to talk about it. So get real and know that when you die it's over. However, if believing in some glorious afterlife, where one doesn't eat, use the restroom, give birth, love one person, but love all, that might be cool. But if that gets you through the night, go for it. Your living a lie, from the time we're born, we start to die. It's the Natural way of things, always have been and all the religions in the world keep borrowing from older religions. There isn't an original thought in all of religions. I hope the woman was happy in the life she led, and that's all that should be important.
Well I do believee that Ms. Casey Johnson ask God to forgive her sins before she passed away, By doing so God will forgive her I truely believe this God is a Good God . God is good to use all the time . So i pray for her family and I hope that Ms. Tila Tequila will ask God to forgive her of her sins and move on .
