“#Astroworld Victim\u2019s Family BLASTS Kanye West For \u2018Idiotic\u2019 Billie Eilish Attack
\n<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\nThe family of the youngest Astroworld Festival<\/strong> victim has some thoughts about Kanye West<\/strong>\u2019s demand for Billie Eilish<\/strong> to apologize after reports came out that she seemingly shaded Travis Scott<\/strong> over the deadly crowd surge at his concert in November.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Rolling Stone<\/em> on Thursday, the grandparents of 9-year-old Ezra Blount<\/strong> spoke out against the 44-year-old rapp<\/a>er\u2019s recent social media<\/a> post, calling the whole situation not only \u201cidiotic\u201d but \u201churtful\u201d as well. Bernon Blount<\/strong> told the outlet:<\/p>\n

\u201cTo hear Kanye\u2019s words, that\u2019s hurtful to us. What an idiotic thing to say.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ezra\u2019s grandmother Tericia Blount<\/strong> then added:<\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s just crazy, and I hate to use that word, but I think it\u2019s ridiculous. She\u2019s making sure that she is caring for the patrons at her concert, and I just think that\u2019s crazy of Kanye to even let that demand come out of his mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

As we previously reported, Eilish stopped in the middle of her performance at State Farm Arena<\/strong> in Atlanta last week after realizing that a concertgoer was struggling to breathe in the crowd. After quickly providing the fan with an inhaler, the 20-year-old singer told the audience:<\/p>\n

\u201cI wait for the people to be OK until I keep going.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Many people interpreted her comment as a criticism of Scott, who continued to perform at his Astroworld concert last year while festivalgoers were crushed in the crowd. The stampede killed 10 individuals \u2013 including Ezra, who fell from his father\u2019s shoulders during the surge, ended up in a coma, and later died in the hospital.<\/p>\n

Kanye, of course, did not appreciate Eilish\u2019s diss towards Scott and called her out on Instagram<\/strong>, even threatening to pull out of his Coachella performance later this spring unless she apologized. He wrote:<\/p>\n

\u201cCOME 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 TRAV DIDN\u2019T 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\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Goosebumps<\/em> rapper liked the post, leading many to slam him on social media for his \u201clack of empathy\u201d and \u201cremorse\u201d over the tragedy. And soon after, the NDA<\/em> performer commented on the post to let Ye know that she \u201cnever said a thing\u201d about Scott.<\/p>\n

In the interview with Rolling Stone<\/em>, Terecia commended the Eilish for looking out for her fans, saying:<\/p>\n

\u201cI totally commend Billie Eilish for having that decency about her. I think what she did was wonderful, and I would love to tell her myself how brilliant and awesome she is for doing so.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Bernon then said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s crazy that he wants someone to apologize for putting the welfare of someone else before their profits. That\u2019s someone who needed their asthma pump. They could have lost their life, right then. This world is twisted, and we have to stop doing this.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ultimately, the grandparents find that it \u201cdoesn\u2019t make sense\u201d for Ye to \u201cvilify\u201d Eilish over the situation. Bernon expressed:<\/p>\n

\u201cIf he doesn\u2019t want to perform at Coachella, fine. But for the rest of us, we need to start looking out for each other in a more sincere way and not let profits drive our motives. Our family is struggling because the loss of Ezra has affected all of us, mentally, physically, spiritually. We\u2019re still trying to pick up the pieces. Kanye news<\/a> to have more empathy in him, because if it was his children, he would be losing his mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Wow. What are your reactions to the Blount family\u2019s call out? Let us know in the comments (below).<\/p>\n
