Travis Scott: From Olympic Cheer to Police Cell

(iexclusivenews) – American hip-hop sensation, Jacques Bermon Webster, better known as Travis Scott, has found himself in hot water once more.

The “Astroworld” rapper was taken into custody in the early hours of Friday morning following a tumultuous incident at the prestigious George V hotel in Paris.

According to French authorities, a heated dispute erupted between Scott and his personal bodyguard, escalating into a physical confrontation.

A security guard intervened to de-escalate the situation, but in the process, became the unfortunate target of Scott’s aggression.

The rapper is alleged to have physically assaulted the security personnel, leading to his immediate arrest.

The Paris prosecutor’s office confirmed the incident, stating that Scott has been charged with “violence against a security guard.”

Adding fuel to the fire, a police source revealed that the rapper appeared to be under the influence of alcohol at the time of the arrest.

Travis Scott Troubling Pattern of Behavior 

This is not the first time Scott has faced legal repercussions. Just two months ago, in June, the rapper was apprehended in Miami on charges of disorderly intoxication and trespassing.

While the charges were eventually dropped, the incident serves as a stark reminder of the artist’s tumultuous behavior.

The arrest comes as a shock to many, especially considering Scott’s recent public appearance at the 2024 Summer Olympics, where he was seen cheering for the U.S. basketball team.

The juxtaposition of his Olympic enthusiasm with his subsequent arrest is a stark contrast that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry.

As the investigation into the Paris incident unfolds, questions about Scott’s behavior and the potential impact on his career continue to linger.
