Deven (0:08)

Welcome to The TMZ Podcast, Deven, here with Courtney. Hello. Hello, how are you? How was your weekend?

Courtney (0:13)

It was good. There was a little earthquake yesterday morning.

Deven (0:15)

Dude, someone told me that woke you up. Didn't happen in the middle of the day?

Courtney (0:18)

No, it happened at 8.4 in the morning.

Deven (0:20)

You were still sleeping?

Courtney (0:21)

At 8.4 in the morning?

Deven (0:22)

Oh, God, I remember those days.

Courtney (0:24)

It was nice.

Deven (0:25)

I don't have a kid. I literally don't think I have slept in later than 6

Courtney (0:30)

Well, in my defense, I went to bed super late.

Deven (0:32)

Oh, okay. That is it. And then. Okay, cool. So you had a time.

Courtney (0:36)

Yes. Okay, cool.

Deven (0:37)

I'm not going to shame for sleeping in.

Courtney (0:39)

I honestly miss sleeping in a lot.

Deven (0:42)

Okay, so one of Presley Gerber's ex-girlfriends spoke out over the weekend, posted a very long tribute on social media. So we will get into that because obviously, people are still wanting answers of what exactly happened to Presley Gerber. There's a lot of how does someone go into a rehab facility or a sober living house and then end up dying there. People want answers. Some people are starting to speak out. We will get into that.

And the VMAs were last night.

Courtney (1:17)

This was exciting.

Deven (1:18)

I missed them. I was watching the Rams game. That was a game. It was a hell of a game. Oh my God.

Courtney (1:24)

Yeah, it was a lot of crazy.

Deven (1:25)

I watched a lot of football yesterday. Yeah, they do actually.

Courtney (1:29)

I'm sorry.

Deven (1:30)

I have a tickle in my throat. And then a lot went down at the VMAs. Taylor's video came out.

Courtney (1:39)

It was a fun show.

Deven (1:40)

Was it? I heard Madonna was unhinged. Is that true?

Courtney (1:43)

Yeah, Madonna's always unhinged.

Deven (1:46)

That's her brand.

Courtney (1:47)

She was having a good time.

Deven (1:48)

We will talk about everything VMAs after this Presley Gerber update.

So Presley Gerber's ex-girlfriend, a woman named Cameron Roreson, posted this long tribute to him over the weekend. She isn't... A lot of people in Hollywood have posted tributes. I think one of his ex-girlfriends, Charlotte, had previously posted a bunch of photos of them together.

Courtney (2:10)

And another ex, Lexi Wood.

Deven (2:12)

Right, and Lexi. I know Charlotte said she was very upset, and a lot of people I can imagine in his life are, but... Yeah, they were so young. Yeah, so Cameron dated him from 2018 to 2020 She said he was the angel in this life.

You might have to read this. I have the worst tickle in my throat.

Courtney (2:30)

Yeah, one of the most amazing things about him was his humanity and his unique way of making every single person, no matter who, feel as brilliant and important as the next. An incredible, beautiful quality. I have yet to see it in another as honest and pure.

Do you want water?

Deven (2:46)

I'm not going to be able to talk.

Courtney (2:48)

I hope you feel the outpouring up there like love you, Pres. And it is true. That's what you've heard from many people. He was the nicest, kindest person and always wanted to make people just feel as special as they could be and just a very selfless person.

Deven (3:04)

You might be doing this pod by yourself. Do you hear my voice?

Courtney (3:07)

I do hear your voice. I have no idea.

Deven (3:09)

I'm falling apart now, I'm falling apart.

Courtney (3:11)

But it is, it's super sad. I'm sure the parents love to hear all this outpouring from every single person that has been affected by him and just in all different times of his life.

Deven (3:21)

Right. Yeah, it was very well documented, his struggles with substances, mental health, and it seems like the people close to him obviously knew he was, thank you, Ransom.

Courtney (3:33)

Well, he wanted to make those struggles known. And so if anyone else is going, like going through anything, they could turn to him and-

Deven (3:40)

I think I'm back.

Courtney (3:41)

Yeah, that's good.

Deven (3:42)

Okay, I'm back, I'm back. I don't know what the hell that was.

Courtney (3:44)

And see like what he's also been going through.

Deven (3:46)

Right.

Courtney (3:46)

Like maybe he can help someone.

Deven (3:48)

And people just want answers. I mean, when people die, especially at 27, and they were clear, he was clearly trying to get help, people wonder, A, we're hearing all this about him having these sober coaches around. But it's like, where were the sober coaches? Why was he thrown into a halfway house or a sober house when it didn't appear like he was sober? A lot of people have questions.
