Tyga, Travis Scott, and Alexander 'AE' Edwards create havoc in 'sicko mode' at Film Festival
The atmosphere of elegance and prestige at the renowned Cannes Film Festival was shattered when a clash erupted between hip-hop icons Tyga and Travis Scott, along with Alexander "AE" Edwards, the boyfriend of music legend Cher. The unexpected altercation, which unfolded in the early hours of the morning, left attendees in a state of shock and sent gossip columns into a frenzy. Let us delve into the tumultuous events that unfolded on the picturesque shores of the French Riviera.
The disturbance reportedly began near the DJ booth, where the trio—Travis Scott, Tyga, and Alexander “AE” Edwards—were present. The tension escalated when the event’s promoter, Richie Akiva, gave a shout-out to Tyga and Edwards. Travis Scott, apparently displeased with the acknowledgment seized the microphone from Akiva, setting the stage for a dramatic showdown.
After “snatching the mic” and “slamming it on the floor,” Travis Scott stormed off, only to return accompanied by Yung Miami’s baby daddy, Southside. The situation escalated further as Southside engaged in a physical altercation with Alexander Edwards. Scott intervened, turning it into a one-on-one fight between himself and Edwards. Security eventually stepped in, separating the combatants, and both Travis Scott and Southside exited the party. Meanwhile, Tyga and Edwards remained at the event until the wee hours of the morning.
To understand the underlying tension, we need to rewind to the past. Tyga and Kylie Jenner, Travis Scott’s ex-girlfriend, were once an item. While there seemed to be no lasting animosity between Tyga and Kylie, the same cannot be said for the men involved in this Cannes clash. Perhaps old flames and territorial boundaries played a role in the heated exchange.
The Cannes Film Festival has a reputation for eyebrow-raising moments, and this year was no exception. From Kelly Rowland’s viral clapback at red carpet staff to star-studded appearances by Teyana Taylor, Naomi Campbell, and Aja Naomi King, the festival delivered both confrontations and couture. While the standout films are yet to be revealed, early buzz suggests a project chronicling former President Donald Trump’s early career. Cannes, it seems, continues to be a playground for the rich, famous, and occasionally feuding.
In the heart of Cannes, where elegance meets chaos, Tyga, Travis Scott, and Alexander “AE” Edwards etched their names into festival lore. Their “Sicko Mode” melee will be remembered alongside the glitzy premieres and red carpet extravagance. As the sun rises over the French Riviera, the echoes of their clash linger, reminding us that even in the world of high fashion and film, tempers can flare and egos collide.
