One Battle After Another star Teyana Taylor has been filmed in the midst of an angry confrontation while on her way out of the Oscars.
The star, who missed out on the award for best supporting actor earlier in the night, is seen repeatedly telling a person, “You’re very rude,” in a video circulating on social media.
She then turns to those around her and claims: “He put his hands on a female. He literally shoved me”.
The heated exchange was reportedly sparked by an altercation that took place when Taylor tried to rejoin her co-stars on stage shortly after the television broadcast ended with One Battle After Another winning best picture.
According to website TMZ, a security guard used his body to block Talyor and a Warner Brothers studio executive from returning up the stairs and joining producers and cast members on stage.
He was allegedly holding her back and pushing her away from the stage, the publication reports.
Moments earlier, Taylor had raced onto the stage with her arm around One Battle After Another director Paul Thomas Anderson, when the film was declared this year’s best picture.
She had also been nominated for best supporting actress for her role in the film but was beaten by Weapons star Amy Madigan.
Fortunately, the post-show altercation didn’t stop Taylor from making it to the Vanity Fair after-party where she changed out of the feathered frock she wore to the ceremony and into a slinky Chanel number with an open back.
