Adam DeVine Said Zac Efron “Ghosted” Him After Calling Him “Out Of The Blue” To Ask If He Could Crash At His House, And People Are Weirded Out
“He ghosted me, dude. Never called back. I even texted him like, ‘Are you gonna stay here?’ And I haven’t talked with him since, so I have no idea.”

As you might recall, Adam and Zac starred together in the 2016 comedy film Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, alongside Anna Kendrick and Aubrey Plaza.

But the on-screen brothers have seemingly drifted apart recently, with Adam claiming on the podcast that for the first time in a couple of years, Zac called him about six months ago to ask a favor.

Adam said, “Zac calls me — hasn’t called me in a couple years — and calls me out of the blue. He’s on some private island somewhere, and he’s like, ‘Hey man, I just want to let you know that I miss you.’ And I’m like, ‘I miss you too, dude. You’re a good friend of mine, yada, yada.’’”
“He’s like, ‘You still have that place down by the beach?’ And I’m like, ‘I do.’ And he’s like, ‘Would it be cool if I came and crashed with you for two weeks?’ And I’m like, ‘Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, come stay with me,’” Adam said.
“And he’s like, ‘All right, I’m going to call you tomorrow to get all the details, and then I’ll be there early next week, OK?’ And then you’ll send me the address and all that,’” Adam added.
Adam then said that he told his wife, Chloe Bridges, that they were set to have some company for a while. “I’m like, ‘Chloe, I think Zac’s going to come live here for a couple weeks. I don’t know.’ And she’s like, ‘OK, yeah, I guess so,’” he recalled.

However, Adam said that Zac never showed up — and never explained why. “And then he ghosted me, dude. Never called back. I even texted him like, ‘Are you gonna stay here?’ And I haven’t talked with him since, so I have no idea, dude, no idea,” he claimed.
Reacting to Adam’s comments online, several people were pretty weirded out by the entire thing.
“Weird ass thing to do by Zac. Obviously disrespectful but man. How do you go from asking to stay with someone to basically ignoring them with nothing in between lol,” one person wrote.
“This is a really weird story,” someone said, while another user added, “Zac seems like such a wildcard lol.”
