In the digital era, viral videos are more common than the common cold—they pop up everywhere, whether it's the latest dance trend on social media, an adorable pet frolicking in a public park, or the rare and amazing occurrence of someone capturing a meteor shower on their phone camera.
Among these popular video snippets, you'll occasionally find unusual and controversial ones that spark lighter conversations, while others make headlines—and not always in the most positive way.
A well-known adult film star, Layla Kelly, has been banned from all Bunnings stores.
The ban was enforced after a video she filmed in one of the stores went viral on social media.
In the clip, Layla and a friend can be seen jokingly removing their underwear and leaving them in various parts of the store as a 'surprise for the dads' and the 'hard-working tradies'.
The video quickly gained traction online, amassing over 15 million views.
Layla insisted that the video was a harmless joke and that no underwear was left in the store.
She also clarified that she was 'double-layered', meaning she had another pair of underwear on underneath the ones she removed in the video.
'They were simply a prop for the video, we didn't really take our underwear off,' she explained.
'You can't believe everything you see online. I also wouldn't leave my underwear for free like that.'
Despite her assurances, the video led to an unexpected visit from the police.
Layla recalled the moment she saw two officers standing on her doorstep.
'I instantly thought, oh my, someone has died,' she told news.com.au.
'My heart dropped, and I started panicking, I thought for sure something absolutely horrible had happened.'
‘They had a very stern look on their faces and told me that they needed to talk about something serious. My mind was absolutely racing.’
The officers were there to discuss the video, which had caught the attention of Bunnings management. Layla was left bewildered by the situation.
'I was so confused, I just stared blankly at them,' she said.
'I couldn't understand what had happened. The cops were at my door over a video? It didn't make sense.'
‘I never expected what they were about to tell me.’
The outcome of the police visit was a series of trespass notices, which Layla had to sign.
These notices stated that she would face a hefty fine of up to NZD $10,000 (AUD$9,320) if she visited any of the Bunnings stores in Wellington over the next two years. Layla says she was just grateful not to be charged.
Watch the video below:
Despite the controversy, Layla maintained that her video was harmless.
‘We filmed a bunch of different videos there. No staff told us anything, except that when we took our shoes off at one point, they said we needed to put them back on, which we respected,’ she said.
‘It was such a weird conversation to have with police, and I was trying not to laugh. It all felt so bizarre.’
'It wasn't hurting anyone. When we filmed it, we made sure there was nobody else around,' she added.
'We never exposed ourselves or anything. I don't understand why this whole thing needed to be so dramatic.'
However, the incident has left her wary of stepping foot in any Bunnings stores in the future. 'I definitely won't be going into any Bunnings stores, though, that's for sure,' she said.
Layla claimed to have made NZD $320,000 (AUD) $297,800 selling adult content on OnlyFans in the last 12 months. Her highest earnings in a month totalled NZD $48,000 (AUD $47,600).
Bunnings New Zealand was contacted for a comment on the incident but declined to respond.
This incident serves as a reminder of the potential repercussions of social media antics, especially when they involve public spaces or businesses. While social media can be a powerful tool for self-promotion and entertainment, it's crucial to consider the potential consequences before posting content online.
Speaking of controversies in stores, in a similar story, a woman was confronted by a security guard in Woolworths who allegedly assumed she was indulging in some five-finger discount. The woman alleged that she had been ‘discriminated’ against as she accused her of stealing food. Read more about the story here.
