Travis Scott has recently made headlines following an incident in Paris where he was taken into custody after an altercation at the George V Hotel. The altercation occurred late on August 9, 2024, after Scott had been seen supporting the U.S. basketball team at the Olympics. According to reports, he was involved in a dispute with his bodyguard, which escalated to the point where hotel security intervened, leading to Scott’s arrest for “violence against a security personnel”.
The Paris prosecutor’s office confirmed that Scott was arrested after a security guard attempted to separate him from his bodyguard during the confrontation. However, on August 10, it was reported that the police custody order was lifted, and all proceedings against him were terminated due to the incident being classified as minor.
Fans reacted to the news on social media, with some joking about the Kardashian family’s influence, suggesting that they should avoid Paris due to the ongoing issues that seem to follow them there. Others expressed concern for Scott, noting the toll that constant media attention and paparazzi harassment can take on celebrities.
Prior to this incident, Scott had been busy with his “UTOPIA: CIRCUS MAXIMUS TOUR,” which has included performances across Europe and North America. He recently collaborated with Ice Spice on the music video for her single “Oh Shhh…” from her latest album, Y2K! Despite the challenges he faces, Scott remains a prominent figure in the music industry, known for his energetic performances and impactful releases.
