Why Didn’t He Reach Out?

As TV Shows Ace previously reported, those who have been following this story have a lot of questions. Namely, they are asking why he did not reach out to one of his contacts or get someone to issue a statement on his behalf refuting the hoax. Instead, he let people believe he was dead while he fought to get back into his hacked account.

TV Shows Ace spoke to one of Josh’s ex-girlfriends who had been trying to get in touch with Josh or one of Josh’s family members to confirm he passed away. Understandably, fans are questioning why Josh didn’t answer any of those calls. In turn, this has caused some to question whether his account was really hacked. Or, if it is possible he staged this as a PR stunt to get his name in the headlines.
