A Miami Beach club has apologized after a video of a group of controversial influencers singing along to an antisemitic song circulated online.
The clip appears to show Andrew Tate, Tristan Tate, Nick Fuentes, Clavicular, Sneako, Myron Gaines and Justin Waller grinning, dancing and singing along to Kanye West's "Heil Hitler" in a van on the way to Vendôme nightclub. Another video shows them in the club, reportedly dancing to the song again after they requested it.
A spokesperson for Andrew Tate told Newsweek: "Andrew Tate had no involvement in the song being played or requested. He has no control over what a venue or others choose to play and strongly questions why such a decision was made."

Braden Peters, known online as Clavicular, reposted footage of the video on X, saying: "We are everywhere on social media, you cant scroll anywhere without seeing this collab, and you think this is somehow negative?"
Newsweek reached out to all the men mentioned for comment via email and their social media channels.
The song—released by the rapper now known as Ye on May 8, 2025—features the repeated phrase "Heil Hitler," samples an Adolf Hitler speech and has been widely condemned for its embrace of Nazi imagery and antisemitism.
Ye was barred from entering Australia upon the song's release.
The track was banned from major streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube amid global backlash, though it continued to circulate on social media, particularly on Elon Musk’s platform X where it racked up millions of views.
Since the video began circulating, the club has released a statement condemning the behavior.
"We are aware of a video circulating online from one of our venues that includes content and imagery that are deeply offensive and unacceptable.
"We want to be unequivocally clear: Vendôme and our hospitality group do not condone antisemitism, hate speech, or prejudice of any kind. These values are fundamentally opposed to who we are and the environments we strive to create," the club wrote on Sunday.
The club added that it was reviewing how the offensive song came to be played during a bottle parade, and that it planned to "take immediate action to hold the responsible parties accountable."
Vendôme said its ownership and leadership reflect a diverse group of partners, including members of the Jewish community, and that it was "deeply disturbed by the harm caused by this incident and the circulation of this footage."
As part of its ongoing review, the club said it was evaluating additional safeguards and procedures "to ensure our venues are not used as platforms for offensive or harmful behavior," and that it was taking the matter seriously as it completed its review.
The mayor of Miami-Dade County, Daniella Levine Cava, shared a statement on X condemning the incident.
She wrote: "Hate has no home in Miami-Dade County. Reports of Nazi slogans at a Miami Beach club are deeply disturbing and unacceptable. We stand against antisemitism and all hate, and expect swift accountability to keep our community safe and respectful for all."
