While walking the red carpet at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, Kelly Rowland found herself having to step out of character for an “aggressive” security guard.

According to Daily Mail, the R&B singer attended the event and instead of having all of the attention on her stunning look, eyes were drawn to her verbal spat with staff.

In viral footage, the former Destiny’s Child member could be seen raising her finger to a woman dressed in a suit.

Per outlet, security was assigned to assist stars on the red carpet, but lacked patience and respect.

An insider claimed that the 43-year-old “tried to ignore it” but “had enough” when she came into contact with another militant guard.

In a clip Rowland can be seen saying, “Don’t talk to me like that. Do not talk to me like that, you are not my mother.”

“By the time she got to the last woman she had had it because she scolded Kelly and told her to move when she was trying to wave to fans and help the paparazzi get their shot,” a source claimed, per DM.

The insider also added of Rowland, “She doesn’t care if she comes across like a diva if she knows that she is advocating for herself. She isn’t fake and wanted to set a clear boundary.”

Rowland donned a draping, strapless, red gown that swept the floor and showed off her toned arms and décolletage. The wife and mother-of-two paired her look with a staple silver choker and matching shoes. She also sported her hair in a short ash-blonde bob with a rosey-shimmering makeup look.
