You probably don’t know the singer D4vd for his music, but rather for the murder of teenager Celeste Rivas Hernandez. On September 8th, in Hollywood, D4vd’s Tesla was towed to a pound after being abandoned. Shortly after, yard employees began noticing an unbearable smell coming from the front of the vehicle, where the trunk is located. In the trunk was a bag containing Celeste’s body in an advanced state of decomposition.

Although the investigations are still ongoing, the Los Angeles police have identified D4vd as the prime suspect and stated that he is cooperating. Appropriately, his video titled “Romantic Homicide” carries powerful and highly suspicious symbolism. In fact, the video seems to depict the death of a young woman physically similar to Celeste and places her in a ritualistic context. Furthermore, almost all of his work involves death, sacrifice, and bodies in car trunks.

One of the most controversial “theories” discussed on this site is that celebrities need to sacrifice a loved one to reach a higher level in the entertainment industry.

In fact, as soon as Celeste’s death was announced, D4vd’s name was instantly reported everywhere and “Romantic Homicide” reached a new peak on Spotify Global. So, what’s in this song?

Confessing

The video “Romantic Homicide” was released on September 7, 2022. Coincidentally, this is also Celeste’s birthday.

The video begins with D4vd walking down a dark street carrying a suitcase.

Throughout the entire video, he is always blindfolded. The blindfolding of new initiates is a complex part of Masonic rituals and has a very symbolic meaning: it represents the candidate’s prior blindness and ignorance.

Then, things start to get very suspicious.

The actress in the video has similar features to Celeste.

Is it possible that D4vd unintentionally chose someone who looked like Celeste? Perhaps. However, D4vd had real romantic ties with Celeste. Furthermore, the girl in the video is dead.

D4vd appears blindfolded in front of the girl’s body, which is dressed in a virginal white dress. There are also candles in the area, which completes the ritualistic aura.
Throughout the video, we realize that the white rose symbolizes the girl. In this scene, the rose is on the same blood-stained bed.

Although D4vd is blindfolded, some verses of the song express the fact that he murdered the girl.

In the back of my mind, I killed you
And I didn’t even regret it
I can’t believe I said it
But it’s true
I hate you

At the end of the video, the suitcase that D4vd was carrying is opened, and we see knives and pocketknives stained with blood.
The petals of the white rose fall loose. Does this mean that D4vd dismembered the girl? Bizarre fact: Celeste was found dismembered in the Tesla.

This isn’t the only video that seems like a direct reference to Celeste. On April 13, 2023, he released “Sleep Well,” a song about an extraordinary love and telling the person that he will always be there for them, wherever they are.

The video shows scenes of the two together, but she soon disappears from all of them, leaving him alone, and ends with another man. Again, the girl in the video looks very much like Celeste, and the white rose indirectly symbolizes her.
In August 2023, he released “Notes From A Wrist.” He appears to be arguing with his girlfriend in some scenes, but loving her in others. In this scene, his blindfolded and blood-stained alter ego watches him.
That’s where “My House Is Not A Home” comes from, which people believe is also connected to the case. He sings about being on someone’s doorstep, after apparently having left home, and now he’s going to share a bed with that person, but they don’t care about him.

In “My House Is Not A Home”, D4vd sings:

Hello, I’m at your door again
I just needed a friend
But now I share a bed with you
Am I dumb to succumb to the noise?
I’m not a little boy no more
I’ve made my stupid choices too
Tell my mother that I’m sorry
Tell my father just the same
Tell my sister that her brother
Might as well have gone insane

Moving on to the video “Where’d It Go Wrong?”, D4vd appears dead in a girl’s lap, and his spirit walks through an abandoned house.

In the end, we discover that it was the girl herself who shot and killed him. Which explains what happens in the next video.
In “One More Dance,” the bloody alter ego D4vd drags his own corpse and places it in the trunk of a car with the help of two other people. Remember when Celeste was found in the trunk of her Tesla?
Released on April 25, 2025, “Is This Really Love?” is a song about the lack of love. D4vd says he doesn’t feel good enough, that the person didn’t love him back, that she traded him for someone else, and he knew she was plotting something. Once again, D4vd ends up face to face with his bloodied alter ego.

Furthermore, D4vd supposedly registered a song titled “Celeste” a few years ago, and shortly after, it leaked. The lyrics are about a high and addicted girl. At the time, the real Celeste was between 11 and 12 years old.

Yes, all of D4vd’s work revolves around relationships and death in a ritualistic context. Some may see all of this as a grand confession.

In Conclusion

More than six months after the brutal discovery of Celeste Rivas’ body, D4vd was officially found guilty. Furthermore, police found a large amount of child pornography on his iPhone. As with many mysterious deaths analyzed on this site, this case carries an undeniable “sacrifice for fame” energy. And it seems to have worked. D4vd was the most searched singer on Google in 2025 and will likely remain so as the investigations continue.

In fact, everything surrounding Celeste’s death revolves around material possessions: she was found in a Tesla in Hollywood, and this served as a springboard for D4vd to become one of the most listened-to singers on Spotify. Meanwhile, people flocked to watch his almost confessional videos, generating significant monetization through AdSense.

The theme of death, so prevalent in D4vd’s work, prepared fertile ground for his fans to accept Celeste’s real blood sacrifice. This is the modus operandi of the hidden elite. They expose their obsessions and practices so that they become normalized and invoke more energy for the ritual through the shock of the masses.

If D4vd’s videos were once considered art, today they can be seen as criminal material. But what about when artists sing about selling their souls to the devil? Are they also simply “making art”?
