Stephen "tWitch" Boss, choreographer, DJ and co-host of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," has died. He was 40. Boss died by suicide at a hotel Tuesday, according to a report from the Los Angeles medical examiner.
Boss, known as "tWitch" on DeGeneres' long-running syndicated daytime talk show, joined the show as a guest DJ in 2014 before becoming a permanent fixture and later being named the show's co-executive producer in 2020. ("Ellen" ended its 19-year run in May.) His wife, dancer Allison Holker, shared a statement about his death to People magazine.
"It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us," she 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."
