Travis Scott and Alexander “AE” Edwards were involved in a physical altercation after Scott dissed Tyga at the Cannes Film Festival. The incident reportedly began when Tyga was given a shoutout by nightclub tycoon Richie Akiva but Scott grabbed the microphone from Akiva’s hand. This led to a confrontation between Scott, AE, and Southside, which escalated into shoving and a fistfight. Security intervened and Scott left with Southside while AE and Tyga remained at the event. No one was injured in the altercation.
A source revealed that Akiva had tried to get Scott to perform for a couple of hours at the event without success. When AE and Tyga arrived on stage, Scott grabbed the microphone and expressed that they were not going to be doing the event. AE tried to explain to Scott that Akiva was just showing love to Tyga, but tensions rose and a physical altercation ensued between AE, Scott, and Southside. Security intervened once again, and Scott and Southside left while Tyga and AE stayed behind.
A video shared by Hollywood Unlocked showed two male figures engaging in a physical altercation, with text on the screen initially identifying them as Tyga and Scott. The footage was blurry and it was difficult to discern the details of the altercation. Scott and Tyga have a shared history, including both having been romantically involved with Kylie Jenner. Tyga dated Jenner from 2015 to 2017, after which she began a relationship with Scott. The couple shares two children and ended their relationship in 2022.
Despite their connection to a mutual ex, Tyga and Scott have not publicly shared many details about their relationship. In March 2022, Tyga was reportedly in attendance at Scott’s concert following a tragic incident at Scott’s Astroworld festival where 10 concertgoers died due to a crowd surge. Tyga showed support for Scott by staying for the performance and watching from the VIP section. However, details about the status of their relationship following the altercation at the Cannes Film Festival remain unclear.
Scott, Tyga, and AE’s representatives have not provided any comments on the altercation at the Cannes Film Festival. The details of the disagreement that sparked the physical altercation between the three men are still unknown. While Tyga and Scott have had a positive relationship in the past, their history and connections through the music industry and their shared involvement with Kylie Jenner have likely played a role in the tensions that led to the altercation.
