Travis Scott called this mess upon himself when he took to his Instagram Stories to vehemently deny rumours that he’d cheated on his long-time girlfriend, billionaire Kylie Jenner.

The look on his face indicated that he could barely believe how the crowd had just sung his opening songs word for word so loudly that his own voice was barely audible.
