DETROIT, Michigan (AP) -- Proof, a member of rap group D-12 and a close friend of Eminem, was shot to death early Tuesday at a nightclub along Detroit's Eight Mile Road, a publicist said.
The death of Proof -- whose real name is Deshaun Holton -- was confirmed by Dennis Dennehy, the publicist for D-12's label, Interscope Records.
"Memorial service arrangements are still being made, and his friends and family would appreciate privacy during this difficult time," Dennehy said in a statement.
Proof was the best man at Eminem's wedding in January and often appeared alongside the superstar rapper at concerts and public appearances.
He also appeared in the film "8 Mile."
Detroit police wouldn't confirm that Proof was killed, but said two people were shot in the head -- one fatally -- early Tuesday at a nightclub on Eight Mile.
An argument at the CCC nightclub escalated into gunshots, Detroit police spokesman James Tate said.
Wende Berry, a spokeswoman for St. John Health System, said Holton was dead on arrival at St. John Conner Creek, an outpatient treatment facility. Berry confirmed that he had a gunshot wound.

He deserved it. That stupid b*****d fired the first shot. Thus he brought it on himself. MTV News The violence has to stop. It hurts to read that Proof fired the first shot, and I still can't believe it. That type of thing from a guy who doesn't even roll with security? I just hope that someone is brought to justice for this latest hip-hop. MTV News According to a spokesperson for the Detroit Police Department, evidence indicates Proof shot first and then suffered a gunshot wound to the head around 4:30 a.m. Tuesday

That was kinda retarded. Nobody deserves to die. This sucks. Proof was awesome, and he dies. What the heck is that?! I think they are going to make a song about this like they did in D12 World with Bugz. Proof was awesome and it sucks to see him braught down.

I can see D12 making a song, Eminem making a solo one. And possibly other people on the Shady Records Label.
