On November 7 Travis Scott hosted an astroworld festival where many music artists performed to their fans. What was meant to be a fun and enjoyable moment ended in tragedy as 8 people died and at least 25 were injured. 8 of those deaths ranged from a 10-year-old to a 21-year-old. Both Travis and Kylie has gotten a lot of criticism for allegedly ignoring these situations to carry on performing and filming, however, Kylie has talked on behalf of the staff that they weren't aware of the situation going on even though it was made explicit. Kylie posted an Instagram story panning the festival and at the corner, you can see paramedics trying to help an injured fan. Regarding the families who have lost a loved one during the festival, Roddy rich (music artist) donated money.
