In a brief yet graphic article that has drawn massive online criticism, celebrity news website TMZ on Tuesday described, in brutal detail, the death of Swedish producer and deejay Avicii, born Tom Bergling.

With the article that described how Avicii committed suicide by cutting himself using a broken wine bottle, TMZ confirmed last week's statement by his family, which appeared to frame the deejay’s death as a suicide. In the statement, his family stated: “He really struggled with thoughts about meaning, life, happiness. He could not go on any longer. He wanted to find peace."
