Kanye West Is Threatening to Pull Out Of Coachella
Via Instagram on Thursday (Feb. 10), Kanye West called out Billie Eilish for comments she made at a recent show about concert safety, which the rapper apparently perceived as a slight at Travis Scott months after the Astroworld Festival tragedy.
Eilish never mentioned Scott.
West posted on his Instagram a screenshot from account @RapSeaTV, reading: “Billie Eilish dissed Travis Scott at her concert after she stopped the show to give her fan an inhaler! ‘I wait for the people to be okay before I keep going.'”
Responding in his own caption, West wrote, “Come on Billie we love you. Please apologize to Trav and to the families of the people who lost their lives. No one intended this to happen.”
He added: “Trav didn’t have any idea of what was happening when he was on stage and was very hurt by what happened, and yes Trav will be with me at Coachella, but now I need Billie to apologize before I perform.”
Hours later, Eilish responded in the comments, writing, “Literally never said a thing about Travis. Was just helping a fan,” she wrote.
Eilish and West are scheduled to headline Coachella in April.
