Did Nena snuff it at the Fairview offramp this morning or something?

Some woman in a Hummer Limo apparently committed suicide on the freeway at 5 this morning by leaping out of it. The news reports say they had been at a "celebrity event" (nice phrase) and then at a party in Costa Mesa. Also that she was in a "German band". Unsurprisingly, there may have been alcohol involved!

So, what German band was at a Celebrity Event, then came down to this hub of culture and excitement called Costa Mesa and partied until 5 am, and then got in their Hummer Limo to go back to L.A. only to be interrupted by this lady's suicide?

Edit: Now it says she was in a "popular German punk band". I'd put up the Drudge siren because it's a DEVELOPING... story but I'm lazy.

Wasn't it Nina Hagen?

If the bit in the story stating "a woman in her mid-20s" is correct, then it could not have been Nina Hagen (born 1955.)

Now they're saying she was in RAMMSTEIN. And that she was from IRVINE.

In a beautiful way, all of this makes sense.

ever since i saw it on the news yesterday, i totally want to know what band it is, but there are no girls in rammstein (i looked them up!). i think they told the limo driver they were in rammstein, and he told that to a newspaper or something.
