Kanye West on Billie Eilish and her supposed dig at Travis Scott

In the recent past, there had once occurred a devastating concert crowd accident at Travis Scott’s AstroWorld show. The rapper allegedly went on to proceed with his live show even after he realized people were dying on the ground, crushed under the enormous horde. Following it, once at Billie Eilish’s concert, a fan nearly ran out of breath due to the huge gathering. Billie, however, had halted her show to wait till everyone was okay, the video of which went viral on Instagram.

This action of hers, however, was irrationally linked to the AstroWorld tragedy, stating it was “a dig” at Travis. Although Billie has time and again made it a point to go easy with the crowd even before the tragedy occurred, the star got called out for the aforementioned matter. Kanye took to his Instagram and addressed the fiasco writing, “ Come on Billie…please apologize to Trav…” in caps lock. The then 44-year-old gave way to a lot of criticism for targeting someone who is half his age (Billie, then 20).

Nevertheless, Billie did not step back either. But neither did she make any hate comments as a reply or comeback. She commented on Kanye’s post, stating, “Literally never said a thing about Travis. was just helping a fan.” Travis had no say on the matter and reportedly stayed silent from his front. On the other hand, West welcomed a lot of hate remarks, some of which also called out his age-old conflict with Taylor Swift.
