Kelly Rowland Cannes bust-up: Colleagues defend usher against accusations of racism and insist she was 'only doing her job'

Kelly, the 43-year-old American singer, expressed shock and anger at her treatment during the ongoing Film Festival in the French Riviera resort.

There have been threats by terrorist groups to target stars, and wars in Ukraine and the Middle East have also heightened tensions in the run up to global events, including the Paris Olympics in July, and 80th anniversary of D-Day in June. It had been claimed that Kelly skipped out on co-hosting the rest of the Today show alongside anchor Hoda Kotb because she was dissatisfied with her dressing room, forcing Rita Ora to step in at the last minute.
