Kelly Rowland Breaks Silence Over Viral Red Carpet Moment at Cannes: 'I Stood My Ground'

The Destiny's Child star also told AP that 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," she concluded.

An expert lip reader has deciphered what allegedly went down during a now-viral exchange between Kelly Rowland and a security guard at the Marcello Mia premiere during Cannes Film Festival on Tuesday night.

The tense moment blew up online after photos of the 43-year-old singer appeared to show her in an agitated state as she pointed her finger in the the face of a staff member on the red carpet. Video of the incident then made its way online, giving some additional insight into the confrontation.

Jacqui Press, a lipreader who watched the footage, told MailOnline that the incident appeared to spark from the staffer stepping on Rowland's dress.

Press told the publication that the staff member seemingly apologized to the Destiny's Child singer -- who replied with, "It's okay."

However, the staff member then said something else which was unreadable -- as she was facing away from cameras -- which caused Rowland to no longer play nice.

"Don't talk to me like that," Press said Rowland responded and then repeated several times. As this was happening, the staffer continued to try to usher the Grammy-award winning singer up the red stairs.

Another security guard then came down to meet them during the disagreement, before Rowland allegedly said, "You still don't talk to me like that!"

Many people online have also attempted to read the stars lips as the moment made its way around the internet -- with the general consensus being Rowland became frustrated as she tried posing for pictures, only to be rushed off the carpet.
