The hits just keep on coming for Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott in the wake of the Astroworld tragedy.
On November 5, chaos took over Scott’s Astroworld Fest in Houston, TX after people began dropping to the ground, convulsing and concertgoers began stampeding in every direction.
The death toll rose from eight to ten over the last few weeks, and more than three hundred people were injured.
Many are enraged the rapper did not stop the show when chaos and panic broke out.

Kylie defended her man a day after the show saying that they had no idea what was going on until after the show had ended.
“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,” she wrote in an Instagram Story.
The cosmetics queen was highly criticized for taking videos of the concert during the melee and publishing them to her IG Story. One video showed an ambulance driving through the crowd to get to an injured attendee.
The “Goosebumps” rapper has also issued multiple apologies in the form of Tweets and videos.
Travis' Apology to fans
However, there are not enough apologies to undo what was done that fateful evening.
Scott has been hit with multiple lawsuits, and the most recent one reaches upwards of $700 million.
According to TMZ, the rapper, Drake, Apple and Live Nation had a $750 million lawsuit brought against them by more than 125 fans, including the family of one fan who died at the festival.
Things are looking bleak for Scott.
In addition to the lawsuits, Kylie and Scott were set to be on the cover of W Magazine for their December issue.
Their cover also featured a major in-depth interview with the couple, who are expecting their second child together.

This particular magazine issue was already printed and ready to go before the November 5 tragedy; however, they had not yet been shipped out.
Now, W Magazine is scrambling to pull the issue before it hits store shelves.
“W editors have cleared any planned coverage of Travis and Kylie from their website, but the magazine was already printed, and now they are trying to stop the delivery trucks,” one source told Page Six.
They continued, “In the light of what happened at Astroworld, the interview and cover lines seem inappropriate, to say the least.”
Nike recently postponed its sneaker collaboration with the rap star and Kylie could potentially lose millions in business deals.
