Last month, TMZ reported that Boss’ wife, Allison Holker rushed into a police station in Los Angeles and told police officers there that her husband left the residence without his vehicle, which is something he would not do. Police officers then received a 911 phone call a short time later about a shooting that took place at a hotel. When they arrived at the hotel, he was found with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Boss joined The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2014 when he first made his debut as a guest DJ. After working there for some time, he became a permanent fixture on the daytime talk show and worked his way up to becoming a co-executive producer in 2020.
Boss was also an acclaimed dancer and entertainer. In 2008, he appeared as a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance. He didn’t win but was a runner-up on the television show.
Boss is survived by his wife Allison and children Zaia, 3, Maddox, 6, and Weslie, 14.
