"Oh, Jesus Christ. Who's that guy? We're getting him out."

Pete Davidson reportedly had a fan removed from his comedy show after they made an inappropriate comment about Mac Miller. In audio obtained by TMZ, a heckler can be heard referencing Mac Miller's death during a Monday night comedy gig in South Orange, New Jersey.

Pete was setting up a joke by saying "my friend died in my apartment". An audience member interrupted the setup by yelling out "Mac Miller?"

In the recording Pete is audibly shocked at the mention of Mac Miller. "Oh, Jesus Christ. Who's that guy? We're getting him out. Point out the guy who's a fuck face," Pete said.

Pete then refused to continue the show until the heckler was identified and removed from the audience. Pete also insisted that the heckler be given his money back.

This comes months after the tragic September 2018 death of Mac Miller.

At the time, Pete's ex, Ariana Grande, mourned the rapper, who she had dated shortly before entering a relationship with Davidson.

Pete and Ariana were engaged but broke up weeks after Mac Miller's death. Fans of the singer think she opened up about the situation on the song "ghostin" from her new album thank u, next.
