Fans criticize Kylie Jenner for ‘tasteless’ party theme after Astroworld tragedy

Kylie Jenner threw Stormi and Aire a joint birthday party — and some critics are now accusing her of “mocking” the Astroworld tragedy with her decorations.

In photos from the bash that were shared Wednesday via Instagram Stories, the reality star showed multiple inflatable heads that were seemingly modeled after Travis Scott’s “Astroworld” album cover.

The “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum, 25, used a similar blow-up tunnel for her 5-year-old daughter’s previous parties.

However, Jenner skipped the decor for Stormi’s February 2022 celebration, four months after 10 victims died at Scott’s concert.

Social media users took to Twitter to criticize the reality star’s decision to recycle the old head this year.

“Wtf?” one person asked. “Where’s the respect?”

Another user advised Jenner to “try something new” for her kids’ parties since she has “so much money.

Meanwhile, a third called the theme “a bit scary” in the wake of the fatal crowd crush.

In a Reddit thread, fans continued to question the makeup mogul’s decision to not “destroy any allusion” to Astroworld.

“Isn’t this tasteless after the Astroworld tragedy … where children died,” one argued.

Another called the decorations “callous and tone deaf and oblivious,” adding, “This makes me cancel-level mad.”

Page Six has reached out to Jenner’s rep for comment.

While Scott has yet to post about Stormi and Aire’s respective birthdays on social media, Jenner posted a touching tribute to their eldest child Wednesday.

“i gave you the gift of life and life gave me the gift of you,” the Kylie Cosmetics creator captioned an Instagram slideshow. “the most special girl. this little face. i will miss it as it keeps changing.

5 years of loving you and forever more to go,” she continued. “i will always be there for you storm girl.”

Jenner gave birth to Stormi in February 2018. Although she and Scott split the following year, they reconciled and went on to welcome Aire in 2022.

Reports surfaced in January that the on-again, off-again couple are no longer together, but the duo have yet to speak to the rumors.
