*A Las Vegas judge has ordered rapper Blueface to pay $1 million in interest and $13 million in damages to the strip club where a shooting occurred in 2022.
As TMZ reports, the troubled hip-hop star (whose real name is Johnathan Porter) was allegedly involved in a shooting outside the now-shuttered Euphoric Gentleman’s Club in October 2022.
We reported previously that Blueface was arrested on Nov. 15, 2022, for the shooting that took place on Oct. 8, near Sunset Rd. and S. Las Vegas Blvd. In viral video of his arrest, his ex-girlfriend, Chrisean Rock, could be heard saying, “It’s okay daddy!” And “Can I at least get my money?”
The “Thotiana” rapper was arrested on charges of felony attempted murder with the use of a deadly firearm or tear gas.
As XXL reports, Blueface’s team got into a physical altercation inside the club with the shooting victim, Kentabius Traylor. The drama ultimately spilled outside the venue, where Blueface allegedly pulled out a gun and shot at Traylor’s vehicle, striking his hand.

Blueface was initially charged with attempted murder but received a five-year suspension after pleading guilty to charges of battery and discharging a firearm.
The club was forced to shut down as a result of the shooting. EGC sued Blueface, and the judge ordered the rapper “to pay the club’s owner $12.6 million in lost revenue, $198,000 in lease damages, $84,000 in payroll expenses to laid-off employees and more,” per XXL.
Blueface failed to oppose the initial award amount by a deadline of Oct. 13, so interest accrued, increasing the total amount owed to the club to $14,386,164.23.
