(E!)

Toby Sheldon, the Justin Bieber look-alike who disappeared in Los Angeles last week, has been found dead. Sheldon’s body was discovered in a Motel 6 in the San Fernando Valley on August 21.

While the hotel room was full of drugs, no official cause of death has been determined. LAPD originally believed the disappearance may have been related to a recent breakup with his boyfriend, says TMZ.

Sheldon enjoyed some brief fame last year after appearing on the reality show “My Strange Addiction,” in which the 35-year-old admitted to having undergone $100,000 worth of cosmetic surgery to look like a young Justin Bieber.

An aspiring musician himself, Sheldon said on the TCL show, “I had various hair transplants done to get [Bieber’s] full bangs,” adding, “I also had filler added under the [eye]brows and skin removed on the upper eyelid to get his bright open eyes.” “When Justin Bieber got famous, I was so jealous of his good looks,” confessed Sheldon in the video below. “He had this baby face that I really liked. I was like, ‘Damn, that is what I want to look like.’”

Sheldon also appeared on “Botched,” the E! reality series about plastic surgery gone awry. Gossip Cop will update as more information emerges.
