Shocking: Female trainee singer dies after sharing a hotel room with HYBE’s CEO.
On September 18, KoreaBoo reported that the death of a female trainee from HYBE in 2000 is causing a stir in Korean public opinion. The unfortunate girl is Camilla Sterling. According to Ms. Kim – stylist and reporter for Harper’s BAZAAR Korea, Camilla Sterling was found dead at a hotel in Miami, USA in late March 2023.
In the police investigation report, in the early morning of March 30, 2023, Camilla Sterling – who was about to debut – was taken to VIP room Ocean View 2805 to meet David Bolno (Director of Operations of HYBE America). At 4:30 am, David Bolno left first. At 8:30 am, hotel staff discovered Camilla Sterling unconscious, curled up in the bathtub. Upon checking, they confirmed that the girl had died and immediately called the police. At the scene, the police found bags of drugs and condom boxes in the trash. The cause of Camilla Sterling’s death was determined to be drug shock.

Miami (USA) police initially identified David Bolno as a suspect. They later removed David Bolno from the list of suspects related to Camilla Sterling’s death. According to the investigation agency, Camilla Sterling called room service after David Bolnor left. Meanwhile, David Bolno said that Camilla Sterling and he met at the hotel to discuss a recording contract, and that there was no sexual relationship between them. The director painfully shared: “Her sudden departure is a tragedy”.
However, according to the Daily Mail, the relationship between David Bolno and Camilla Sterling is actually more complicated than the statement of the HYBE America Operations Manager. Through investigation, the media discovered that David Bolno was the one who paid the rent of 1.6 million USD (about 36 billion VND) for Sterling. Camilla Sterling herself also told the apartment broker that Bolno was her boyfriend. Notably, David Bolno was married with 2 children. Not only that, Sterling’s friends also testified that the female intern was dating a powerful figure in the music industry. This group of people only dared to testify anonymously because they were afraid of the man. Therefore, the public all believed that Camilla Sterling’s death was suspicious and related to the meeting between her and David Bolno.
David Bolno dishonestly confessed to the authorities about the real relationship between him and Camilla Sterling. Therefore, the public believes that there is something fishy behind the death of the young female trainee of HYBE
Currently, the incident has caused a stir on social networks. Many people have asked HYBE to clarify the death of Camilla Sterling and the relationship between this girl and David Bolno. However, not long after the accusation exploded in public opinion, reporter Kim removed the content and confusedly shared that acquaintances had warned her and were worried about her safety. A few hours later, Ms. Kim suddenly said that the information she posted about Camilla Sterling’s death was just a rumor, not true. Kim’s reversal made people suspect that she had been threatened. As for HYBE, this entertainment company has not yet commented on the incident.
