If David was so obsessed with Celeste why didn't he report her missing when he didn't hear from her while he was on tour. He definitely is hiding something.

Evidently, he's too privileged to be arrested - despite the astonishing mountain of evidence.

The multimillion dollar rental home appears to have multiple garage doors. Why was there a need for D4vd or whomever to be parking the Tesla out on the street to begin with?

David is not the star, Celeste is the star. ⭐✨ He's just the one that took all the inspiration from her. Wtf is he going to sing about now? She's the main point in the music.
