Family And Friends Speak Out
Friends and family of the ‘Young & Reckless’ star gathered at the site of the shooting on Sunday to remember Paige. Her cousin, Nicky Clayton, told KTVU that the reality TV star had been spending time with family before the shooting.
“She was chilling,” Clayton said. “She was with family. So she supposed to be good. I don’t know what transpired, but I know she’s supposed to be here…. “I’m in disbelief.”
In addition, her friend Poodahh also spoke about the late reality TV star.
“Oh my God, she was so fun,” she said. “Was she not hella fun? Oh my God, this girl was so fun. She had us everywhere… She pushes me to be better every day. She sees when I’m not giving it my all, and she pushes me to be what she knows I could be… She’s not gone. I can’t speak to her in the past tense… I’m sorry for all of our loss, because she’s a star.”
Kash Reportedly Wanted To Start a Business
Clayton added that his cousin wanted to be famous. Not only that, but Paige also had an interest in becoming a businesswoman.
“She wanted to be famous so bad,” he said. “She still had morals, don’t get me wrong. She wanted to be a reality star. She was wanting to start her own business. She was modeling for a lot of companies, and she really wanted to do makeup.”
