Kardashian fans slam Travis Scott after he shares rare photo with Kylie Jenner on anniversary of Astroworld tragedy
KYLIE Jenner's baby daddy Travis Scott has been ripped by fans after he failed to recognize the one year anniversary of the Astroworld tragedy.
On November 5 last year, a fatal crowd crush occurred during the first night of the 2021 Astroworld Festival, a music event founded by father-of-two Travis.
The concert- which was held at NRG Park in Houston, Texas- saw a total of 10 people die.
Travis, 31, failed to acknowledge the one year anniversary on Saturday and instead shared a cozy mirror selfie of him with his girlfriend, Kylie.
The snap was taken on Friday evening as mom-of-two Kylie was wearing the same outfit as the one she modeled at her mom Kris Jenner's birthday eve dinner.
The Kylie Cosmetics founder looked stunning a glitzy black dress which featured spaghetti straps and a plunging neckline.

Kylie was dressed as her mom from 1989 after the momager told all of her guests to pick their favorite look of hers for the birthday celebration.
It's unsure if Travis attended the dinner, but he made sure to take a photo with Kylie that night.
The rapper also shared a picture of a burnt orange sky at sunset, but kept quiet about the Astroworld anniversary.
When one person shared a screenshot of his selfie with Kylie on Reddit, others quickly commented on the thread and they were not happy.

"A very poor attempt to make us forget about what day it is," one person accused.
Another said: "Disappointing but not surprising..." and a third commented, "A year ago people were crushing to death but yeah, Travis go off."
A fourth user fumed: "Is this dude okay? In the middle of Instagram? On the one year anniversary of 10 innocent people dying at your concert? F**k Travis Scott."
And in reference to Travis barely being in the photo, another said: "Um, no matter how little he’s seen, the Astroworld concert still happened."
ASTROWORLD TRAGEDY
Lives were lost and hundreds were injured following a crush at the opening night of Travis' Astroworld Festival.
The crowd is said to have surged towards the stage while Travis was performing at the third annual Astroworld music festival on November 5, 2021.
A crowd of 50,000 showed up for the two-day event, which sold out within an hour of tickets going live in May 2021.
Officials in Texas said the crowd began to ";compress towards the front of the stage" at around 9.15pm, sparking panic.
They transported 17 people to hospitals with 11 of them in cardiac arrest.
It is feared hundreds more were injured, including children as young as 10.
Addressing a press briefing, Houston Fire Chief Samuel Pena said at the time: “We had at least eight confirmed fatalities. We had scores of individuals injured at this event.”
Chief Pena told reporters: "At approximately 9.15pm the crowd began to compress towards the front of the stage and that caused some panic and it started causing some injuries.
"People began to fallout, become unconscious, and it created additional panic."
Several people were treated at the scene at NRG Park, where a field hospital was set up.

In a statement posted on his social media the next day, Travis offered his condolences to those who died, and offered support to local authorities- as did Hulu star Kylie.
