Kylie Jenner fans slam Travis Scott for ‘dissing’ her in front of cameras while backstage at the Billboard Music Awards
KYLIE Jenner fans have slammed Travis Scott for ‘dissing’ her on camera at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards.
Travis Scott, 31, snubbed girlfriend and make mogul Kylie backstage at the NBC award show.
The Instagram Story posted by Kylie Jenner, 24, shows the couple with daughter Stormi, four, after the rapper’s award show performance.
The Billboard performance marks only the second public showcase by the SICKO MODE artist since the tragic event at last year’s Astroworld Festival.
The video begins as the rapper picks up and kisses Stormi, all while he repeats, “let’s do it again”.
Kylie follows suit, going in for a kiss of her own but is denied when Travis dips to the side and places a smooch on her cheek.

The Kylie Cosmetic’s founder would not be dissuaded.
She wraps her arm around Travis’s neck, pulls him close, and lands a kiss anyway.
The Instagram video was reposted and dissected on a Reddit board by fans who gave their take of the apparent ‘diss’.
One Redditor commented: “I’m not trying to be rude, but what the hell is the deal with these two. Is this a business arrangement at this point or real?”

Others didn’t see the action as a snub or agree with the narrative the poster seemed to be trying to create.
As one person wrote: “I don’t see the dodge. I see him kiss Stormi and then he kisses Kylie on the cheek. Then she wants to kiss him on the lips too, so she does and he kisses her back. It was a pretty natural interaction?”
Another commented, “He didn’t dodge her kiss tho…this narrative is wild”.
A third commenter agreed: “He clearly reached to kiss her and then she kissed him back he pulled away not to [hit] Stormi with his head. They might be not a good couple in general, but you want to make them look disgusted with each other. It is too much.”
Another passionate makeup “expert” wrote: “Nah. He literally went in for the kiss, but basically refused to do it on her lips probably because she had on lipstick and foundation. She can’t kiss him, but he can kiss her. That’s how it works when you’re wearing “night out” makeup. Some of you want to talk shit but just tell on yourselves lol.”
While one, seemingly Kourtney and Travis Barker exhausted fan wrote, “Can we just appreciate the fact that they aren’t shoving their tongue down each other’s throat please”.
UN-CANCELLED
Stormi can be heard happily exclaiming: “Daddy you’re singing again!”
To which Travis responded, “I know I’m so cold. Daddy was so cold.”
The 2022 Billboard Music Awards was Travis Scott’s first televised performance since the Astroworld disaster.
The rapper’s appearance at the BBMAs was first discussed by the night’s host, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.
During a Friday, May 6 press junket with Billboard in Los Angeles, California, Diddy went into detail about his attempts to get the outlet to add Travis, as well as Morgan Wallen, to the show’s lineup.
The star producer revealed: “The mood of the show is about love and forgiveness.
“As a musical family, none of us are saints; none of us are without things that happen to them in life.
He further shared: “So one of the things I’m doing directly is un-canceling the canceled.”
“That’s breaking news because people haven’t been about un-canceling. But canceling is a trend that needs to stop.”
Diddy touched on the subject of the controversy surrounding both Travis and Morgan and said: “Travis went through a tragedy; Morgan [used the N-word] while talking to his boy.

“People make mistakes. Now we’re moving on with love and respect for everybody that was hurt or affected.
“It’s time to forgive. To have Morgan and Travis be able to come back and touch the stage again with the mindset of getting a second chance at life.”
