Attendees at the party claimed that Minx attempted to toss outdoor heaters, as well as other partygoers, into a pool at the venue — one of these being YouTube starSykkuno.

Sykkuno himself responded to these claims a few days later, saying during a March 14 broadcast that Minx had never tried to throw him in the pool at the afterparty.
“People were asking me, ‘Did she attempt to throw you in the pool and kill you?’ And I was like, ‘No. That didn’t happen to me.'”
“I think there was like a weird telephone thing that happened, because this is my experience with the show. Basically, I was chilling by the pool with Connor, and Minx just wanted to go swimming. I think she just drank too much, probably. She said she wanted to go swimming. So me and Connor just grabbed her, and made her not jump in the pool.”
