David Gest is not alive but dead.

The 62 year-old was found dead, on Tuesday, at the Four Seasons hotel in Canary Wharf tower hamlets, East London.

‘It is with great sadness that I can confirm that David Gest has died today,’ a statement by his friend and former bodyguard, Imad Handi said.

The statement continues:

‘David was truly larger than life. He was not just a huge talent and a dear friend but a showbiz icon.

‘I know he will be missed by millions of fans around the world, and particularly in Britain, who came to love his charm and blistering one-liners.

‘If I may steal the words of one eminent critic, David was a natural star and a genuine celebrity. I will miss him desperately.’

The Metropolitan Police also confirmed the incident in a statement:

‘Police were called at 10.17am on 12 April to the Four Seasons hotel, in Westferry Circus, to reports of an unexplained death of a man in his 60s. London Ambulance Service were called to the scene. Life was pronounced extinct at the hotel.
