The Cannes security guard, who was recently publicly reprimanded by Kelly Rowland, was once again involved in a heated exchange.

Dominican actress Massiel Taveras was seen shoving the employee after she was forced up the red steps to show off her dress and long train, which featured an image of Jesus Christ.

It is unclear what Taveras said to the security guard, but a video now circulating online captured the tense interaction between the two.

Taveras, 39, was visibly annoyed with the security guard who apparently prevented her from adjusting her train and stopping to pose for photographers.

At the top, the actress waved to the crowd one last time and then pushed away the security guard who had touched her while trying to escort her into the building.

Earlier this week, Kelly Rowland appeared to have had a similar exchange with the same security guard while walking the red carpet before the premiere of “Marcello Mio.”

The 43-year-old former Destiny’s Child member was seen pointing his finger at the woman in the face, seemingly reprimanding the security guard.

The same staff member also appeared to guide Rowland off the red carpet and away from the crowd and photographers.

An experienced lip reader previously told Page Six that the “Motivation” singer allegedly told the employee to be careful how she spoke to her.

“Don’t talk to me like that. Don’t talk to me like that,” she repeatedly screamed at the woman. “You’re not my mother. I told you not to talk to me like that.”

Rowland later spoke about the incident in an interview with AP News on Thursday.

“This woman knows what happened. I know what happened,” she said at the annual amfAR Cinema Against AIDS gala in Cannes. “I have boundaries and I stand by those boundaries.”

Rowland also alluded to the possibility that race played a role in the incident.

“There were other women on the carpet who didn’t look quite like me, and they weren’t insulted, pushed off, or told to get off,” Rowland continued.

“I made my point and she felt like she had to make her point. But I made my point.”
