In a recent turn of events at the Cannes Film Festival, a heated altercation involving record executive Alexander “AE” Edwards, rapper Travis Scott, and producer Southside erupted, sending shockwaves through the industry. Edwards, who works at Sony Music Publishing and is famously known for his relationship with Cher, has now addressed the incident, shedding some light on the circumstances surrounding the brawl.
The confrontation reportedly took place at businessman Richie Akiva’s party on the French Riviera, where tensions escalated between Scott’s and Tyga’s entourages. While Tyga remained uninvolved in the physical altercation, Edwards found himself in the midst of the chaos
In a statement to TMZ, Edwards downplayed the altercation, refraining from disclosing the exact trigger for the brawl. “It’s all good. Shout out Southside, that’s my n-gga, I know he was just out there defending his boy and doing what he supposed to be doing. I ain’t got no hard feelings, it is what it is. It went how it went. I don’t wanna fight. I didn’t initiate that shit. But I’ma protect myself. It’s a healthy fade,” expressed Edwards.
Moreover, Edwards shared Cher’s reaction to the incident, citing a line from rapper Future: “As Future say, ‘Whatever I’m with, my bitch with it too.'"
The scuffle reportedly commenced when Edwards approached the stage and made contact with Scott, leading to a series of exchanges between the two parties. Despite the physical altercation, no serious injuries were reported, with Scott managing to intervene and separate the individuals involved
While initial reports suggested Tyga’s involvement, it was later clarified that he remained on the sidelines throughout the altercation. Cher, who was also present at the event, likewise refrained from participating in the brawl.
Alexander 'AE' Edwards, known for his previous relationship with model Amber Rose, has been in the public eye since his romance with Cher went public in 2022. Despite the 40-year age gap between the couple, they have garnered attention for their seemingly harmonious relationship.
As details continue to emerge surrounding the Cannes brawl, the incident serves as a reminder of the heightened tensions that can arise within the entertainment industry, even amidst glamorous events such as the Cannes Film Festival.
