Turkish actress Ege Kökenli revealed on June 15, 2026, the reason for her prolonged absence from the "Altın Kelebek" (Golden Butterfly) awards ceremony over the last two years. According to her, as published on the Said Ercan Resmî channel and in a series of reports on the Son Dakika Haberler Gündem channels, the incident stemmed from a violent confrontation that broke out at the ceremony.
According to Kökenli's testimony, as quoted on Said Ercan Resmî, the famous singer Yıldız Tilbe tried to attack her husband, Lior, while they were in the venue's restrooms. Kökenli claimed that the planned attack was due to the fact that her husband is a "Zionist."
The report, which gained widespread resonance in other news channels such as Son Dakika Haberler Türkiye and Son Dakika Haberleri Türkiye, highlights the tension surrounding the event. The Son Dakika Haberler Gündem channel reiterated the remarks in a direct quote: "Yıldız Tilbe tried to hit my husband at the awards ceremony in the bathroom just because he is a Zionist."
It is important to note that the Said Ercan Resmî channel, which is identified with critical positions regarding Tilbe's conduct, added a personal comment condemning the anti-Zionist reasoning provided by the singer, calling her conduct unacceptable. As of this time, no official response has been received from Yıldız Tilbe regarding these serious accusations.
