At least eight people died and dozens more were injured in a stampede during rapper Travis Scott’s performance at Astroworld Festival in Houston, Texas on 5 November.
Kylie Jenner, the 24-year-old girlfriend of rapper Travis Scott, has shared an Instagram story in which she sends her condolences to the families of those who died during the musician's Astroworld performance on Friday. She also refutes allegations that Scott was aware of the severity of the situation but did not stop the show.
"I want to make it clear we weren't aware of any fatalities until the news came out after the show and in no world would have continued filming or performing."
