At the exclusive and star-studded Cannes Film Festival, things got heated between hip-hop sensation Travis Scott and Alexander "AE" Edwards, the boyfriend of music icon Cher. The altercation took place at New York City nightclub owner Richie Akiva's exclusive after-party, known as "The After," on the night of May 23rd. This private villa event followed the AmfAR Gala and was attended by high-profile guests such as Future, Evan Ross, Odell Beckham Jr., Joe Jonas, and more.
Reports from various media outlets, including Entertainment Tonight, TMZ, and Page Six, shared video footage of the altercation between Scott, Edwards, and their mutual friend Tyga. Witnesses claim the fight broke out while Tyga and Scott were both on stage behind the DJ booth. According to Entertainment Tonight, Tyga remained behind the booth during the physical altercation and did not get involved.
The exact reasons behind the fight are still unclear, but it is known that all three men have a romantic history with reality TV personality and makeup mogul Kylie Jenner. Scott and Jenner had an on-and-off relationship from 2017 to 2022 and share two children together. Tyga, on the other hand, dated Jenner on and off for two years before their final split in 2017.
Edwards, a former vice president of A&R at Def Jam Records, is also known for his previous relationship with model and reality star Amber Rose. The couple dated from 2018 to 2021 and share a son together. Edwards has been dating Cher since November 2022.
Despite the intense altercation, both Scott and Edwards were seen leaving the party without any serious injuries. Security and party organizers intervened to separate the two men. Scott reportedly left the party shortly after the incident, while Edwards and Tyga stayed until late in the night.
The evening began on a high note as Cher performed at the AmfAR Gala, which raises money for HIV and AIDS research. However, it ended on a dramatic note with this unexpected fight between two of the biggest names in the music industry. It remains unclear what sparked the altercation and who initiated the physical contact. We can only hope that these talented artists can put their differences aside and move on from this incident.
