The Cannes security guard, who has become notoriously famous for getting into altercations with celebrities, has once again gone viral for physically trying to restrain a Ukrainian model.

The staff member, whose identity still remains undisclosed, was previously seen clashing with former Destiny’s Child singer Kelly Rowland, Dominican actor Massiel Taveras, and K-Pop star Yoona.

Now, a fourth name has been added to the list of high-profile guests that the female guard has had a tussle with. Sawa Pontyjska, a model and Miss Europe 2023, was captured on camera trying to pose for flashing cameras on the Cannes red carpet but being physically held back by the security.

This time, the Cannes security guard was not only seen jarringly ushering the guest but physically restrained her from trying to spend a few extra moments on top of the steps of the famous staircase of the Palais des Festivals et Des Congrès.

Several people online were not happy with the behavior as one said, “What the hell is with the security guard?”

“How did cannes festival became like this,” another wrote while a third comment said, “That’s assault I would sue and press charges.”

The red carpet drama at the iconic French film festival first caused a storm online after R&B sensation Kelly was seen having a verbal spar with the guard.

The 43-year-old singer lashed out at the guard and scolded her for trying to hurriedly usher her inside the venue.

The woman knows what happened. I know what happened. I have a boundary and I stand by those boundaries and that is it,” she told the Associated Press after the scuffle took place.

The Motivation singer felt she was merely advocating for herself and noted that other women “who did not quite look like me” were not subjected to similar treatment from the guard.

“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. I stood my ground and she felt like she had to stand hers. But I stood my ground,” she added.

Strike two from the female security guard came when it was Massiel’s turn to walk the Cannes red carpet.

The Dominican actress was dressed in a gown that was accompanied with a long white train, unfolding to reveal an image of Jesus Christ. But when she tried to have her train’s image in full display on the staircase, the security guard in question was seen hastening her to move up the stairs.

Viral videos showed the TV presenter sharing a few heated moments with a bunch of security guards stopping her from posing for cameras.
