Jean Claude LaMarre Files Charges Against Teyana Taylor

The film director that’s accused Teyana Taylor of attacking him on set is now pressing charges against the actress.

As previously reported, Taylor detailed a fight with Jean Claude LaMarre, the director of  the new film ‘Gang Of Roses’ of which she has a starring role.

Now LaMarre is speaking out on the incident and confirming that not only did they come to blows, but that Taylor “came at him like a spider monkey.”

In a written statement he says,

“Teyana Taylor has a history of violence. And after discussing it with my family, I decided to file the charges. We have statements from over twenty crew members who witnessed her charge and violently attacked me. I was going to leave it all alone because at the end of the day she’s only 20 years old, but the truth is this young lady has a real anger problem that needs to be dealt with. I had no choice but to file charges.”

 

Additionally Claude claims that when he asked Taylor to leave his set after complaining of a toothache, she refused and “came at him like a spider monkey” until members of his production team could pry her off him.

“She began to kick camera equipment and destroy property on set,” Jean Claude claims. “In her fit of rage, she then walked to my car and kicked my vehicle door and dented it. There were tons of eyewitnesses on set.”

 

Teyana previously said she acted in self defense after the director “smacked his hand across her face.”

“He turned around and he said ‘Don’t Fawking scream at me Beyotch’ and smacked his hand across my face and from there I defended myself.”
