The man at the center of the controversy surrounding Chappell Roan has a past that is raising fresh concerns. 

Pascal Duvier, the security guard involved in the São Paulo incident, previously worked for Kim Kardashian and was responsible for her protection during the infamous 2016 Paris robbery.

During that high-profile heist, Kim was robbed of an estimated $10 million in jewelry while Duvier was not present. 

Reports at the time revealed he had been out at a nightclub with Kourtney and Kendall Kardashian, leaving the reality star without protection.

The fallout was significant. Duvier was later sued by Kim’s insurance company over the security lapse and eventually settled the lawsuit in 2020. 

Now, years later, his name has resurfaced under very different circumstances while working security for Roan.

The latest controversy unfolded at the luxury Palácio Tangará hotel in São Paulo, where Chappell Roan was staying ahead of her Lollapalooza performance.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, Duvier “aggressively” confronted 11-year-old Ada Law while she was having breakfast with her mother, Catherine Harding.

Ada had reportedly noticed the singer nearby and briefly walked past to take another look before returning to her table. It was at that point that Duvier approached them. 

According to Ada’s stepfather, soccer star Jorginho, the interaction left the child “extremely shaken” and in tears.

The outing had been planned as a birthday treat, with Ada and her mother staying at the same hotel and preparing to attend Roan’s performance. 

However, the encounter derailed those plans entirely, turning what was meant to be a special experience into a distressing one.

Chappell Roan Drawn Into Debate Over Responsibility For Security Actions

Although Roan denied sending her security guard to intervene, the situation quickly sparked debate about how much responsibility celebrities bear for those working on their behalf. 

Harding addressed the issue directly, questioning whether such behavior could occur without some level of authorization.

“Look, I would like to hope not, but at the same time, I think that you have a responsibility when you are a celebrity to make sure, I guess, that the people who work for you and that act on your behalf are acting on your behalf,” she said per The Blast.

She also raised concerns about whether Duvier acted independently, adding, “Would he do that if he didn’t have her authority to do so? I don’t know.” 

Harding suggested that if he acted without approval, “that’s a big problem because then he’s representing her in a way that she doesn’t want to be represented.”

Roan’s Security Guard Accused Of Crossing The Line

Harding went further in describing the encounter, claiming the situation escalated due to Duvier’s tone and approach. 

She said the incident “ruined” her daughter’s birthday plans, alleging that the security guard chose to “berate and scold” them in a “very aggressive tone.”

She also described him as intimidating, saying, “For me, I feel like if she [Roan] really didn’t send him, [the security guard] overstepped a boundary because he is quite an intimidating [man].”

According to Harding, Duvier even told her that her daughter was “badly educated” and warned he might file a complaint with the hotel. 

The disappointed mom concluded by expressing hope that the situation would lead to change, saying, “If it wasn’t her, I hope she learns to maybe not allow the people who work for her to treat people like this.”

Chappell Roan Faces Fallout As Officials React To Incident

The backlash from the incident has extended beyond social media, reaching local officials. Eduardo Cavaliere, the mayor of Rio de Janeiro, publicly responded by banning Chappell Roan from performing in the city.

In a post on X, Cavaliere criticized the situation and wrote that “as long as I’m in charge of our city – this young lady @ChappellRoan will never perform at Todo Mundo No Rio.” 

He also contrasted the incident with other global stars, adding, “I doubt that Shakira would do that!”

At the same time, he offered a gesture of goodwill toward the affected family, noting that Ada would be invited as a guest of honor at a future event.

Chappell Roan has since denied involvement in the confrontation and issued a public apology, but the controversy surrounding her security guard and his past continues to draw attention.
