Another celebrity has had a heated encounter with security at Cannes, and it appears to involve the same guard Kelly Rowland confronted earlier this week.
Actress Massiel Taveras graced the red carpet on May 22 at the renowned French festival, donning a white dress with a long train adorned with an image of Jesus Christ. In a viral video circulating on social media, Taveras is seen attempting to lay out the image for photographers, while a security guard dressed in all-black tries to guide her up the stairs.
The clip reveals Taveras’ frustration as she fiercely protects her dress from being stepped on or covered by the security personnel. At one point, she shoves the guard in an effort to keep the image visible.
Upon closer inspection, the security guard appears to be the same woman who had an altercation with Kelly Rowland earlier this week. Rowland was seen telling off the guard on the red carpet, with a lip reader suggesting she chastised the guard for speaking to her rudely. Later, Rowland implied that race might have played a role in the incident.
Massiel Taveras’ encounter suggests she was equally unhappy with the security at Cannes. Festival organizers have yet to respond to the incident.
