Casey Johnson, the gay great-great-granddaughter of the founder of Johnson & Johnson and a scene-y L.A. socialite, was found dead Monday. She was 30. Casey’s on-again, off-again relationship with Tila Tequila became immediate fodder after Tequila began tweeting about her distress about losing her future “wifey.” The daughter of Jets owner Woody Johnson, Casey adopted a daughter, Ava-Monroe, from Kazakhstan in 2007. She entered the public spotlight in 2002, after starring in a reality show in Paris and Nicky Hilton, and reportedly spent years battling substance abuse.

What a shock!! not………..

Her uncles (Woody’s brothers) had similar drug related fates. I was married into the Johnson family at one time and this branch reads like a Shakespeare tragedy.

A bleach-job celebrity seemingly famous only for being famous drops dead after lesbian fling and drug abuse–and it’s NOT Lindsay Lohan. It really IS a shock!!

I’d kill myself too if I were involved with Tia Tequila.

I actually was thinking about Casey two days ago. I thought she should have avoided Tila Tequila because she is greedy and cold. This reminds me of Michael Jackson’s death where I was looking through the internet about him for the first time the night before he died. If Tila had any chance of getting money out of Casey’s death I wouldn’t be surprised if she killed her.

Not a shock, but still sad. Money can’t buy happiness, and won’t ensure success at Drug-Rehab-and-Spa-by-the-Sea. I hope her kid escapes the limelight and the craziness. At least the child didn’t get the woeful genetics….

I feel sorry that she died. But I’m wondering how was she allowed to adopt a child with her history of substance abuse? Don’t they have standards for adoptive parents from there?
It’s quite in contrast to the grief Malawi gave Madonna before letting her adopt her two children even though she doesn’t use drugs and is a responsible parent.

Thank fuck the comments are getting somewhat respectful, you washed up, nothing better to do queens. This is someone’s mom and a loved family member. Let Terrwill, Merrill and Dizzy spins reflect on their own moments of personal tragedy before passing judgement on others. Really.

Goes to show that slurping rancid Tequila can prove fatal……. :-X

Here is her mother. NUT JOB with a stretched pussy. What has happened to our WASP old money culture? Gone to hell with Brooke Astor’s son.

“She’s somebody’s mother”? yeah, some poor third-world baby she probably adopted on a Oxycotin bender and used to deflect bad publicity. With all her wealth and fame, she didnt do one thing to better the world. Im sorry she died but I wont cry for her.

Not really, she bought the child, then gave it to her mother to raise so she could go out, do drugs, and party. She is no better than your average crack addict who gets her kids taken away.
Fitz
Well, Cam.. there is someone in the world who will probably miss her, regardless. I take strong offense at the “bought the child” crap that people like you spew. Adoption is a valid form of family making. You insult adopting parents and adopted kids everywhere.

: Now Johnson @ Johnson will know what is feels like to lose a family member. Have read about many people passing away using the Johnson @ Johnson Morphine Patch, that was leaking more than 10,000 time than it should have, yet they are still giving it to people. Shame on you. Suffer!!!!!!
