Ellen Show’s DJ, Stephen ‘Twitch’ boss dead at 40

The well-known DJ on Ellen Degeneres’ talk show, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, has passed away at 40.

According to law enforcement sources, Allison Holker, Stephen’s wife, ran into an LAPD station on Tuesday in a hysterical state because she claimed that Stephen had left the house without his car, which was uncharacteristic of him.

Shortly after that, at around 11:15 AM, paramedics were called to a medical emergency at a hotel in Los Angeles, where they discovered Stephen dead from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound. At the scene, he was identified as deceased.

Allison Holker while speaking to TMZ said:  “Stephen lit up every room he stepped into. He valued family, friends and community above all else and leading with love and light was everything to him.”

“He was the backbone of our family, the best husband and father, and an inspiration to his fans. To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt. I am certain there won’t be a day that goes by that we won’t honor his memory.”

“Stephen, we love you, we miss you, and I will always save the last dance for you,” she added.

Stephen began spinning records on Ellen’s show in 2014 and continued doing so until the show’s cancellation in May 2022. In 2020, he was appointed executive producer of the program.

When he finished second on “So You Think Can Dance” in 2008, he really got his big break in the entertainment industry.

He continued acting and was cast in a number of roles that allowed him to showcase his dance abilities. Stephen starred as Jason in the “Step Up” film series and in “Magic Mike XXL.”

In particular, Allison and Stephen co-hosted “Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings” on Disney+. Stephen has hosted a number of reality shows.

The couple, who were both competitors on the “SYTYCD” all-star season, got married in 2013. This past Saturday marked the ninth anniversary of Allison and Stephen’s union.

They had 3 children. Stephen was forty years old.
