Dead in Hollywood

March 30, 2018 by Castro Burger

RIP WEHO JESUS 

If you live in West Hollywood, chances are that you've seen WeHo Jesus. Thrillist recognized him as one of “LA’s 12 Most Loveable Local Weirdos.” His real name was Kevin Short. Short described himself on his Twitter account as “la’s jesus tmz’s hollywood jesus aerosmith’s street jesus snoop’s sunset jesus weho’s rainbow jesus lmfao’s party rock jesus for barbara ann.” He was such a celebrity on Sunset Blvd that he was featured in Lana Del rey's music videos and rock band Aerosmith even wrote a song, "Street Jesus," about Short. 

Short died at the age of 57 after a "brief illness."
