Overview
- On Sunday, July 19, Travis Scott brought his eight-year-old daughter Stormi onstage during his Fanatics Fest set at the Jacob Javits Center and performed the song “FE!N.”
- A 57-second clip posted to X by @kumoriRaver quickly went viral and focused attention on moments where Scott did not visibly hold Stormi’s hand, prompting sharp online criticism.
- Other videos from the same performance show Scott holding Stormi’s hand and engaging with her, which supporters cite to argue the viral excerpt captured only part of the interaction.
- Neither Travis Scott nor Kylie Jenner has publicly responded to the online reaction, and many social-media replies referenced the 2021 Astroworld crowd deaths when judging the choice to bring a child onstage.
- Stormi’s stage appearances are not new and the episode highlights how short social clips can reshape public views of celebrity parenting and could lead to increased scrutiny of how performers include children in live shows.
