Kirby L. Avalon (1987-2012), also known as KIRBY, was a Russian "flop pop" singer and socialite who became known for his outrageous and over-the-top behavior and his universally panned music. He launched his career in 2009 to much controversy and, until 2012, released three albums in total. He was also a contestant on URAPS Big Brother 2011. Kirby was known to not get along with any of the critics or any of his peers in the music industry, namely MIDNIGHT, the members of Phoenix Rising, and Indigo-away Reak as well as others, including a very infamous feud with American hip-hop artist L.E.X.

In September 2012, Kirby was found murdered at his home in St. Petersburg, Russia, his hometown. Among the suspects were L.E.X., MIDNIGHT, Hailey, Elice Claire, and Kazimiera. No evidence, however, was found as to who murdered him and his case turned cold, remaining unresolved. Kirby was 25 years old when he died.
