Cannes Security Guard Who Was Involved in the Kelly Rowland Incident Moves Actress Massiel Taveras Off the Carpet

It appears that the security guard who had a viral heated exchange with Kelly Rowland on the red carpet of the Cannes Film Festival is back in the news.

Footage circulating on social media seemingly showed the female security guard trying to move Dominican actress Massiel Taveras along the Palais des Festivals staircase, which eventually led to Taveras pushing the guard.

The video posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) showed Taveras going up the red carpet in a white gown that featured a long train with what appeared to be the likeness of Jesus printed on it. The security guard could be seen gesturing to Taveras to move along the carpet after she unfolded the train of her dress. 

The actress could then be seen exchanging words with the security guard as the guard kept her arm up, trying to corral her up the stairs. As Taveras got to the stop and tried to fan out the train of her dress, she could be seen pushing the security guard’s arm away. 

She then waved at fans before the security guard put her arm back up and tried to get her to move on from the carpet. Taveras then appeared to push her and her arm away before heatedly speaking to her once again. 

The new video comes a few days after Rowland’s video with the security guard went viral during the Marcello Mio premiere. The Mea Culpa actress, 43, explained the incident in an interview with the Associated Press at the amfAR Cannes Gala in France on Thursday, May 23.

“The woman knows what happened. I know what happened,” she told the outlet. “I have a boundary, and I stand by those boundaries, and that is it.”

“And there were other women that attended that carpet who did not quite look like me, and they didn’t get scolded or pushed off or told to get off,” she added. “I stood my ground, and she felt like she had to stand hers, but I stood my ground.”

Video captured of that incident showed the security guard holding an arm out to keep Rowland moving, while the star could be seen heatedly speaking to her and pointing a finger to her at one point. Multiple people accompanying the singer seemed to interfere, but the guard continued moving them along the carpet.

Several other stars walked up the infamous stairs throughout the past week, including Meryl Streep, Sebastian Stan and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga stars Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky
