Kelly Rowland addressed an incident involving a security guard during her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival. The event occurred on Tuesday, 21 May, at the premiere of the French film “Marcello Mio.”
During the red carpet walk, a female security guard was seen guiding Rowland, 43, and accidentally stepped on the train of her dress. This led to a heated exchange, where Rowland appeared to scold the guard. According to lip-reading experts, Rowland initially responded calmly but became upset after the guard spoke again.
Rowland explained her stance, emphasizing that she was asserting her boundaries. She noted that other women on the carpet, who did not look like her, were treated differently.
The incident follows another publicized event where Rowland exited a co-hosting stint on NBC’s “Today with Hoda & Jenna” earlier this year, reportedly due to feeling disrespected by co-host Savannah Guthrie.
