  1. 8 dead, numerous injured at Astroworld Festival in Houston

    HOUSTON (AP) — At least eight people died and numerous others were injured in what officials described as a surge of the crowd at the Astroworld music festival in Houston while rapper Travis Scott was performing.

    Officials declared a “mass casualty incident” just after 9 p.m. Friday during the festival where an estimated 50,000 people were in attendance, Houston Fire Chief Samuel Peña told reporters at a news conference.

    “The crowd began to compress towards the front of the stage, and that caused some panic, and it started causing some injuries,” the fire chief said. “People began to fall out, become unconscious, and it created additional panic.”

    The show was called off shortly thereafter. The fire chief said “scores of individuals” were injured.

    Officials transported 17 people to hospitals, including 11 who were in cardiac arrest, Peña said. It wasn’t clear whether all eight who died were among the 17 that had been transported to hospitals. Many people were also treated at the scene at NRG Park, where a field hospital had been set up. About 300 people were examined at that site throughout the day, he said.

    Astroworld is a two-day music festival that was scheduled to take place Friday and Saturday in Houston. The event was sold out, according to the Astroworld website. Saturday’s performances have been canceled.

    The deaths called to mind a 1979 concert for The Who where 11 people died and about two dozen were injured as thousands of fans tried to get into Cincinnati’s riverfront coliseum.

    Scott, one of music’s biggest young stars, released two new songs earlier Friday, “Mafia” and “Escape Plan.” The 29-year-old Houston native has been nominated for eight Grammy Awards. He has a 3-year-old daughter, Stormi, with Kylie Jenner, who announced in September that she’s pregnant with their second child.

    Drake joined Scott on-stage at the concert — which was livestreamed by Apple Music — and posted photos to Instagram after the performance.

    Event promoters had arranged for medical units to be on scene at the festival, however once the crowd surge began, those units were “quickly overwhelmed,” Peña said.

    In a video posted to social media, Scott could be seen stopping the concert at one point and asking for aid for someone in the audience: “Security, somebody help real quick.”

    Houston Police Executive Assistant Chief Larry Satterwhite was near the front of the crowd and said it seemed the surge “happened all at once.”

    “Suddenly we had several people down on the ground, experiencing some type of cardiac arrest or some type of medical episode,” Satterwhite said. “And so we immediately started doing CPR, and moving people right then, and that’s when I went and met with the promoters, and Live Nation, and they agreed to end early in the interest of public safety.”

    Peña said officials did not immediately know the causes of death for the eight people who died. A medical examiner would investigate. The deceased had not been identified as of early Saturday.

    Officials set up a reunification center at a hotel for family members who had not been able to reach relatives who had been in attendance at the event. Authorities were looking to connect families with festivalgoers who were transported to the hospital, “some as young as 10” years old, Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo said.

    Houston Police Chief Troy Finner called for calm and urged people not to jump to conclusions as to what caused the surge.

    “I think it’s very important that none of us speculate. Nobody has all the answers tonight,” Finner said. He added that there have been several rumors surrounding the event that authorities would look into.

    “We’re going to do an investigation and find out because it’s not fair to the producers, to anybody else involved, until we determine what happened, what caused the surge,” he said. “We don’t know, but we will find out.”

    The Associated Press reached out to a representative for Scott but did not immediately hear back.

    Finner told reporters that Scott and the event promoters cooperated with police.

    Scott founded Astroworld Festival in 2018 and it has taken place at the former site of Six Flags AstroWorld each year since, except for in 2020 because of the coronavirus pandemic.

    More blackfishing allegations.  Why does Kylie think that her skin should be like this? It’s obviously not a regular tan.

    I’ve called it out before. She’s been trying to pass as black for a while in her appearance.

    She's got 6yrs to stop acting like all that self tanner isn't Blackfishing or just the lighting.

    Because if the account didn't say Kylie Jenner and I wasn't aware of what she looks like. 

    I'd believe that this person was trying to copy that swedish IG "model" who constantly blackfishes but hasn't stopped in fact she seems to celebrate the attention she gets because of it.

    Rachel Dolezal hasn’t stopped either.

    She was also labeled as being a transgender woman. Sad she let it get to her that badly.  

    That’s an insult to every transgender woman on the planet (except for Jessica Yaniv).

    Imo she looks Latin. As a black woman this is not  black fishing that new iggy video however is.

    Latin is not a race, but an ethnicity. Plenty of Latin people are dark skinned black, others have blonde hair, blue eyes and are ghostly white. Some are mixed, some have a little native, some have some Asian.

    Just saw the commercial while watching 600 lb life…perfect target marketing🙄. Kate Moss is a lousy model for a product designed to hold in fat and make you look thinner as her entire career was based on her extreme skinniness. Oooo look, SKIMS makes Kate moss look thin. Gotta buy it. Um. No.

    She doesn’t look extremely skinny anymore.

    I also think that people have a stereotypical idea about what a mixed race person is supposed to look like when they are mixed with Black and White.  Khloe's daughter does not fit that stereotype and people make colorist  and racist remarks against her because she looks more Black than mixed. Featurism is also another component to colorism as well texturism when it comes to hair texture. Genetics is very funny and you never know what you are going to get.   I cannot imagine being a mixed race/Black person in that family that is obsessed with looks.   

    All kids in the family (except for Kourtney’s) are mixed race. The family is a lot of things but not racist.

    Is Playboy even as big as it used to be? Like are they even still putting out magazines or have they gone strictly online? Since Hef died You don't hear about Playboy anymore.

    Magazines as a whole are a dying industry. That’s why they’re all (well, most) giving their subscriptions away for free! Didn’t see that in the 90’s.

    Khloe Speaks Out on Leaked Bikini Pic

    Or, you could not post 1,000s of heavily photoshopped photos in an attempt to fool people into thinking you don't have any flaws and imperfections.

    EDITED: I found this on Reddit, the Instagramreality sub, & I noticed that she did the same thing she did in the video she posted. You can see the contouring in the photo on the right below, & you can see it in the video in the article I posted. She's still trying to pretend she doesn't actually look like the photo on the left.

    (Wonder if he regrets choosing Kourt over Sofia, as discussed on the show.)

    I highly, highly doubt it. 
     

    When he and Kourtney met, he was a broke church mouse. 
    Yes, his parents inherited a lot of money and were once wealthy but they blew through the money and ended up with nothing.

    The show and the family brand are the only reasons he isn’t still broke now.

    Can't make out the last word on her top but I got:

    Beat Bite Suck Fuck Cum

    We can always kount on Kourt to keep it klassy.

     

    I’m sure her children are delighted to see their mom walk around like that. She’s such a wholesome organic gluten free granola mother.

    Even better, I hope True is better than my daughter at her age. We took our dog to the groomer, & when he got back home, she started crying that she wanted Sam (our dog) back, because this dog didn't have hair, & Sam did when we left him that morning. She legit didn't recognize him. Poor True is probably conditioned to Khloe changing her face with the moon. Sadly, she'll probably do exactly the same thing. 

    The KarJenner kids are being raised by a team of nannies, except for photo ops. They hardly know their parents as is.

    I agree. The guy did her makeup twice, five years ago. He's a friend of a friend, not a long-term employee. It should also be noted, he got injured because he was doing something stupid, which is why insurance likely didn't cover his surgery. If anything the family should be thanking Kylie. Thanks to her, they flipped a 10k GoFundMe into a six-figure money grab. 

    If he has full coverage, they would still cover his medical costs, even if he is at fault.

    (They might quadruple his rates or dump him after, but they’d cover his medical treatment)

    Kris Jenner Breaks Her Silence on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's Divorce

    Every story I read about the divorce has some variation of this statement, which makes me believe that Kris is making sure it appears everywhere. This also makes me believe that Kanye is somehow going to be blocked from seeing the kids, & she's making sure that everyone knows it wasn't because of Kim. 

    She’s making sure the divorce goes smoothly. Once the divorce is finalized the gloves will come off. I’m sure she has her file of all of Kanye’s erratic behavior ready and polished to be used as reasons as to why he can’t see the kids.
