Kentavious Traylor, the victim of Blueface’s Las Vegas strip club shooting, has come forward to reveal the alleged reason why he was shot: he was wearing a Playboy Bunny shirt.
Traylor spoke to Cam Capone News on Saturday (Oct. 28) to discuss the incident, which took place in October 2022.
“A guy hit me,” Traylor said. “I said, ‘Alright, I’m about to beat your a**.‘ I pulled up my pants and got ready to fight, and next thing you know I’m getting jumped.“
“Honestly, it all started because of a shirt I had on,” Traylor continued. “I just had on a Playboy bunny shirt — that’s how all of this started. They thought I was a from a rival gang or something.“
Traylor claims that he was wronged and that his aggressor hasn’t been given proper punishment.
“That’s why I don’t rock with the DEA either,” Traylor said in the interview. “There’s so many things that they could release, that they could do to make me look better or just show the entire situation [but don’t].“
Blueface has been held accountable in the situation, as last week he was ordered to pay $13 million in damages to the owner of Euphoric Gentleman’s Club. The club had to shut down after the shooting incident, and the owner was not happy about it.
In a post on the official Euphoric Gentleman’s Club Instagram page, the owner wrote: “The beautiful girls of @euphoric_lasvegas would like to thank the entire country for rocking with us in Las Vegas. We put together a dynasty in such short time, but sadly to announce that @euphoric_lasvegas will not reopen. Unfortunately Mr @bluefasebabyy decided to bring gang related activities to our establishment & put all of our girls out of business & ruined the #1 urban spot in Las Vegas.“
Traylor’s story is a reminder of the dangers of gang violence and the importance of respecting people’s differences.
