Phillips’ family pushed for him to go to the hospital while he was sick, but he thought he’d be fine if he just slept it off, the gossip site added.
The rocker’s girlfriend went to check on the musician on Thanksgiving and found him dead. He lived with his dad, who’s currently on a ventilator, TMZ reports.
Phillips — who played the keyboard and sported over-the-top ‘80s-style rocker hair and clothing — appeared on both season 4 and season 12 of the NBC talent show competition.
