“You’re a man putting your hands on a female,” she says in the video. Then she tells someone next to her that “he literally shoved me” and “he damn near shoved” another woman.
“Everybody’s having a good time. But when you shove me, it’s a different story,” Taylor explains to the women next to her. “Do not touch me, do not shove me.”
After the tense confrontation, Taylor said told TMZ that she's good.
“Everybody was having a good time, security was just doing a lot,” she said. “There’s always that one, but I’m perfectly fine. I’m happy. I mean, there’s nothing to wonder. The first thing people do is definitely make assumptions. But at the end of the day I just don’t tolerate disrespect, especially when it’s unwarranted and unprovoked.”
The Academy's issue statement, says that the behaviour is not acceptable
On Monday, the Academy issued a statement, saying that the experience of every single guest is our responsibility and whatever happened with Teyana is unacceptable.
“We were extremely upset to learn about the experience endured by Teyana Taylor at the end of the Oscars ceremony last night. We have worked with Teyana over the last several months during awards season, and she has been nothing short of remarkable, supportive, kind, and all about community,” the Academy said in a statement.
The incident involved a security guard from an outside security firm, SIS, according to the Academy.
What exactly happened
Variety reported, citing a source who witnessed the altercation, that it took place after One Battle After Another won the Best Picture award. Instead of going upstairs, group photos were supposed to take place on the Oscars stage. Warner Bros. film bosses Pam Abdy and Mike De Luca were also present.
According to the source, Pam and Mike were having trouble getting onto the stage. Teyana came down to assist Pam, and when they were heading back up, a security guard forcibly stopped them and put his hand on Teyana.
The source explained that “the guy had watched her walk down and when they went to go back up, he forcibly was trying to stop them.” So it when the actress got angry.
The source added that the guard said, “‘You owe me an apology,’ and that’s when she got even more upset.”
