Khloe Kardashian is under fire for being ‘tone deaf’ and ‘uncaring’ after posting a thirst trap series of photos just days after Travis Scott‘s mass casualty Astroworld set in Texas.
The 37-year-old reality star shared three sultry images of herself where she showed off her curves in a sheer catsuit, causing social media to erupt with a flurry of scathing comments.
‘People are dead Khloe,’ wrote one after she seemed to go back to regularly scheduled programming despite the tragedy which left eight dead.

Khloe’s post seem to ruffle feathers in more ways than one, as she additionally has not offered any condolences to the victims on social media, despite the fatal situation being centered around half-sister Kylie’s baby daddy.
And her other siblings Kourtney, Kendall, Kylie and Kim have yet to post anything on their grid since the fatal incident on November 5.
In the trio of images the Good American founder was seen smoldering for the camera with expert glam.
She was also striking a series of seductive poses while modeling a sheer catsuit.
Her comment section immediately lit up with disapproving statements with multiple calling her ‘tone deaf.’

‘Your brother in law is involved in a mass casualty tragedy and you’re posting thirst traps? Bye,’ wrote one.
‘People are dead, Khloe’ read another while others continued to say it was neither ‘appropriate’ nor ‘the time’ for such self-centered posts.
‘Ppl died at a concert and the Kardashians can’t stop making s**t about themselves.’
‘Posting a nonchalant pic while 8 people died at your brother in law’s concert over the weekend….classy,’ read another comment.
And another person called her ‘uncaring’ and asked how she could even post after the tragic turn of events.

With the exception of Kylie — who is obviously closest to the situation involving Scott as she was there at the Texas concert — none of the Kardashians have spoken out publicly about the tragedy.
Kendall Jenner who was also present with her sister and a group of close friends, did decide to delete a post from Astroworld which was shared on her feed.
And Kylie was also slammed previously for unknowingly sharing a video of an ambulance making its way through the crowd before she deleted the post.
A source told TMZ that though she was captured in a video looking on, she ‘had no idea as to what was happening in the crowd and to think otherwise is both unfair and inaccurate.’
She released a statement on behalf of the Houston born rapper which read in excerpt that they were ‘broken and devastated’ and sending ‘thoughts and prayers to all who lost their lives.’
In addition, she added: ‘I want to make it clear we weren’t aware of any fatalities until the news came out after the show and in no world would have continued filming or performing.

Though eight people have been confirmed dead other reports have said that three more have died from complications in the hospital.
At least 23 people were hospitalized with a whopping 300 people also being treated on site by medics according to police.
Scott’s set began at 9:04PM and the situation turned fatal around 9:38PM when a ‘mass casualty incident’ was triggered said Houston Fire Department Chief Samuel Pena.
‘The crowd began to compress toward the front of the stage, and people began to panic,’ Pena said in a new briefing.
Cops said 367 police officers and 241 security officers were working the event prior to the crush.

Harrowing accounts from concert-goers had described the show as ‘hell,’ with one eyewitness saying it was a ‘floor of bodies.’ Others had even described the show as having ‘demonic energy’ as a whole.
TMZ reported that a ‘key person’ connected to Astroworld said that the situation was the result of a ‘targeted attack’ after ‘someone in the crowd went crazy and began injecting people with some sort of drug, which caused panic and then a surge’.
As of November 7 two lawsuits had been filed against the rapper, with a whopping 11 more pouring in on Monday November 8.
The first two were filed by two concert goers: a man name Manuel Souza and another named Kristian Paredes.

Souza filed a lawsuit this weekend in Harris County District Court, suing Scott himself, as well as organizer ScoreMore and concert giant Live Nation.
Paredes filed a civil lawsuit against both he and Drake, blaming the rappers for negligently inciting ‘a riot and violence,’ and is currently seeking $1 million in damages.
The Goosebumps rapper has now pledged to cover all funeral expenses for the victims and also announced he would be partnering with BetterHelp (a tele-therapy company) to supply free one-on-one counseling to any concertgoers in need.
He also added that the cost of all tickets would be refunded.
