Kelly Rowland speaks out after she is seen in photos arguing with a Cannes Film Festival security guard. Rowland says she has a tattoo of the word 'courage' and she is honored to receive the award.
Kelly Rowland received the Award of Courage at the amfAR Gala and she opened up about the incident with a security guard at the Cannes Film Festival. Rowland said she has a tattoo of the word 'courage' and she is honored to receive the award.
"I have a tattoo that says 'courage,' and it's my reminder to myself to always stand up for what I believe in, and to not be afraid to speak my mind,'' Rowland said. "I'm so honored to be recognized for my courage."
Rowland was photographed arguing with a security guard while walking the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival. Rowland said the security guard was being too "aggressive" toward her.
"The people who are assigned to helping stars walk the red carpet were being aggressive and Kelly was trying to ignore it," an insider told the Daily Mail. "By the time [Rowland] got to the last woman she had had it because she scolded Kelly and told her to move when she was trying to wave to fans and help the paparazzi get their shot."
Rowland said she stood up for herself and told the security guard that she was being too aggressive.
"I stood my ground," she said. "And she felt like she had to stand hers, but I stood my ground. And that was it."
Rowland said she is not afraid to speak up for herself, even if it means standing up to a security guard.
"I'm not afraid to stand up for myself," she said. "I'm not afraid to speak my mind. And I'm not afraid to fight for what I believe in."
Rowland's courage has inspired others to speak up for themselves.
"Kelly is a role model for all of us," said one fan. "She shows us that we can stand up for ourselves, even when it's difficult."
Rowland is an inspiration to all of us. She shows us that we can stand up for ourselves, even when it's difficult. She is a role model for all of us.
