TEYANA Taylor had a tense moment at the Oscars after the ceremony ended, when she was reportedly stopped by a security guard while trying to head back onstage for a Best Picture photo with her "One Battle After Another" castmates.
According to reports, Taylor was attempting to return to the stage alongside Warner Bros. co-head Pam Abdi when a security guard blocked access near the stairs.
Sources told TMZ the guard physically stopped Taylor, leading to a heated exchange inside the Dolby Theatre.
Video from the scene appears to capture Taylor confronting the guard and saying he should not put his hands on a woman, calling the interaction rude. She is also heard saying, "He literally shoved me."
The situation reportedly escalated briefly as the guard continued trying to manage access to the stage. No further public response had been issued at the time of reporting.
The incident drew attention online as fans reacted to the uncomfortable post-show moment involving the singer, actress, and dancer.
What exactly happened with the security guard? I can’t believe she was blocked like that!
Honestly, it’s a shame that some events still can’t get simple security protocols right. How hard can it be?
Oh great, another example of security overreach at a high-profile event. What’s next, random checks at the bathroom?
Teyana has every right to be upset. If they can’t manage a star like her, who are they even protecting?
This is just typical Oscars drama — just wait till someone throws a little popcorn and we have a full-blown scandal!
Was it really necessary to block Teyana? That just seems like a huge security fail on their part.
