Multiple outlets are reporting that Travis Scott performed for the first time since his Astroworld Festival left ten dead. Scott DJ-ed and rapped briefly at a private, pre-Oscars party in Bel Air. According to TMZ, guests included Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Venus and Serena Williams, YG, Kaia Gerber, and Tyga. A source told Us Weekly that Tyga (Kylie Jenner’s ex) made a point of supporting Scott’s performance. “He stood up to listen to Travis and then would sit back down,†they said. “[Tyga] could [have] left and gone to another room but he chose to stay in the main room to watch his performance.â€
This appears to have been Travis Scott’s first performance since November 5, when a crowd surge during Scott and Drake’s set at Astroworld 2021 left ten dead and hundreds injured. The youngest to die was a 9-year-old who had been in a medically induced coma until November 14. The rapper canceled his appearance at a festival in Las Vegas and was dropped from a headlining slot at Coachella. He is currently being sued for billions of dollars by multiple plaintiffs in relation to the Astroworld tragedy.
