So, Awra Briguela’s controversy started amid the fight that occurred outside the bar. She allegedly confronted a group of men and asked that one of them would have to take off his shirt. But, why would someone undress himself, out of nowhere? Because of that, none of those men accepted her demand. After this, Awra got mad and “violently” tore his shirt, as reported. This entire incident led to a fight.
