00:14Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life and TMZ reports Mac's body has been transferred back
00:20to his hometown in Pittsburgh in preparation for his funeral with a Jewish service for him
00:25at a chapel later this week. But alright, in regards to the police investigation,
00:28the site is also reporting Mac was dead in his bedroom hours before his body was discovered
00:34and a 911 call was made. Cops are looking for more information about the party at his home the night
00:40he died. On to Ariana's brother, Frankie Grande. He posted a photo of Mac with a lengthy caption
00:46giving his condolences. Frankie started by saying,
00:49I'm beyond heartbroken over Malcolm's death. He was a good friend and was wonderful to my sister.
00:54He was the reason I went to the rehabilitation center where I was detoxed safely from all of
01:00the drugs, alcohol, and medication I was taking when I couldn't imagine living without them.
01:05Frankie goes on to talk about how Malcolm supported him and how he would be sent gifts
01:10and cards of encouragement as he worked to stay sober. Ari's brother then offered support for
01:15those struggling with addiction and provided the numbers for AA, NA, and the Suicide Prevention Lifeline.
01:21But okay, I also spoke to YG at the premiere of the new film, White Boy Rick, and when discussing
01:27his role in the film, he also touched on Mac's passing saying,
01:30It's horrible. Mac Miller took me on one of my first real tours when I was coming up, like 2012.
01:37Just to see somebody like that pass at a young age, like what he meant to the culture,
01:41to the music, it's just so sad. To Justin Bieber, his manager Scooter Braun revealed in a podcast
01:47he thought JB would overdose at one point. There was a time where I would go to sleep almost every
01:53night when he had the money to fly away from me. And I was worried every night that I was going to
01:59lose him. So when you say lose him, you thought? I thought he was going to die. I thought he was
02:02going to go to sleep one night and have so much crap in his system that he would not wake up the
02:06next morning. And there's a lot of times where people give me credit for him changing or people
02:12on my team. And I don't think any of us deserve the credit. I think that he made a conscious choice
02:18for himself to change. Scooter has said in the past he was very worried about Justin's health,
02:23but his new comments really paint a picture of how serious things were getting. On that note,
02:29if you or anyone you know is going through substance abuse issues, please look for help
02:33among friends and family. Be the support system they need, a simple check-in can make all the difference.
