Just days after being scolded by American singer Kelly Rowland, a female security guard has once again found herself in a red-carpet fight.
Actress Massiel Taveras shoved the female security guard after she had been ushering her up the red carpet.
The Dominican woman was trying to show her gorgeous dress off to the paparazzi and fans while the security guard held her arm in front of the actress, pushing her up the stairs.

Taveras had defied instructions and threw the train of the dress down the stairs, leading to the altercation.
Other workers at the event helped lay the train out while the security guard held her arm in front of the actress, interfering with her pose.
This visibly angered the Dominican woman, ending in the actress shoving the guard back and walking angrily into the venue.
This event comes only days after the same guard had been accused of singling out Kelly Rowland in a racist manner.
Users on X have posted screenshots of the incident alongside the comment, “Notice this. Notice who is rushed and who is not”.
