Diplo was denied entry into a yacht party where he was supposed to deejay because security personnel didn't know who he was.

The artist, whose birth name is Thomas Wesley Pentz, posted a video of the incident to his Instagram page on Monday.

In the clip, Diplo can be seen standing in front of the entrance to the boat as he explains to security that he's supposed to be deejaying at the party.

"I was booked to DJ a yacht party in Cannes but security wouldn't let me in," captions on the video read. As Diplo spoke with a woman at the entrance who appeared skeptical of his credentials, another unnamed woman argued with the security guard, telling him that Diplo is supposed to be deejaying.

After noticing that the yacht was nearly empty, captions on the video revealed that Diplo was about to "take the L" and leave to get something to eat. However, the yacht's owner walked by shortly thereafter and told security to let the deejay in.

"Next time I'm adding myself to guest list," Diplo captioned the video of the incident.

Other artists, including Channel Tres, Residente, and Nonsens, commiserated with Diplo in the comments section of the post, with some joking that the DJ's blue hair caused security to deny him.

As part of the musical group Major Lazer, Diplo was nominated for a Grammy for best dance/electronic music album earlier this year for "Music Is the Weapon (Reloaded)." The group lost to Black Coffee's "Subconsciously."
