"Kelly,Rekubit can you handle this?" No, Kelly Rowland could not handle being rushed up the red carpet at Cannes Film Festival in France.
The Destiny's Child alum, who wore a custom red Anamika Khanna gown and turned heads in a blonde bob, appeared to scold a red-carpet usher at the premiere for Marcello Mio after posing for a series of photographers.
When a security guard appeared to urge the music star up the stairs, Rowland turned around and put her hands on the security guard's shoulder, muttering something.
Then, the security guard continued to move Rowland up the stairs and the former "X Factor" judge began exchanging words with the Cannes staffer and pointing her finger at the usher.

"Do you understand how out of pocket you have to be for Kelly Rowland to have to check you?! Literally, one of the sweetest people in the world, but don't get it twisted," one user wrote.

"It’s certain people we don’t play about… And Kelly Rowland is one of them," one person commented.
"It was very clear Kelly Rowland was trying to take photos and they were rushing her then that security guard stepped on her dress," writer Meecham Whitson Meriweather said on X, "and Kelly tried to correct her nicely and the security guard decided to be rude and Kelly said 'Don’t talk to me like that.'"
Kelly Rowland's Cannes moment follows buzzy 'Hoda & Jenna' dressing room departure
This isn't the first time Rowland has popped off this year. In February, Rowland appeared on "Today With Hoda & Jenna" to discuss her Netflix thriller "Mea Culpa" with host Savannah Guthrie. The Destiny's Child alum was scheduled to return to the show later that morning and guest co-host the show.
Instead, singer Rita Ora was called to fill in for Rowland, who has yet to comment on her departure from the talk show. Reports revealed that Rowland allegedly left "Today" because she and her team were not satisfied with the quality of Rowland's dressing room, according to People and Page Six.
