However, in a post shared on Kylie’s Instagram story, the makeup guru claimed that the pair “weren’t aware of any fatalities” until after the show, assuring fans that the rapper would have stopped the concert if he knew.

Scott, Live Nation and NRG Stadium have since been hit with a lawsuit requesting over $1 million which alleges that the rapper “incited the crowd.”
