I don't really know for sure myself. Some say yes, some say no. Wiki is getting yanked back and forth. I'm just gonna wait till the morning see if it pops up on yahoo news or something.

Singer-Songwriter Rick Astley Found Dead in Berlin Hotel Room
By LIZ SIDOTI The Associated Press Monday, June 30, 2009 1:00 AM
Berlin -- Known for his 80's pop hit "Never Gonna Give You Up," the 43-year-old Rick Astley has been pronounced dead today. Astley's body was found at the Angleterre Hotel in Berlin after an ambulance responded to an emergency call from his hotel room.
Astley was found unconscious in his hotel bedroom and was unable to be resuscitated. He was pronounced dead on the scene.
Astley was in the middle of a concert tour that would have ended in late August of 2009. He was to return to the United Kingdom at that time.
Something else that is interesting, look at the tour dates: Rick Astley Tour
Notice, he was in Berlin on the 20th, and on the 27th he was in Norway. The main page confirms that the Norway concert did indeed take place. His next concert is in Denmark. So, I suppose this is implying that he went back to Berlin, though Denmark is between Norway and Germany.

Rick Astley Dead? Not So Much! Posted on June 30th, 2009 7:37 AM by Free Britney Filed under: Rick Astley
Rick Astley is reportedly dead.
Rick Astley is also reportedly NOT dead.
In what appears to be yet another Internet death hoax this week, a fake AP report said the singer-songwriter, most famous for his one-hit wonder single "Never Gonna Give You Up" in 1987, had been found dead in a Berlin Hotel Room.
However, the story did not appear on the official AP newswire, and a link on the Digg social networking site took visitors to a YouTube clip of Astley singing "Never Gonna Give You Up" and said, "You've beeen Rickrolled."
