Co-parents Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott have been criticised after a birthday party for their kids featured props from the musician's 2021 Astroworld Festival.
Jenner and Scott, who split in 2023 after six years together, are parents to Stormi, who turned eight last weekend (February 1) and Aire, who turned four on Monday (February 2).
Jenner is now dating actor Timothée Chalamet, but continues to co-parent her two children with Scott.
They could be seen last weekend on social media at a double birthday celebration for Stormi and Aire, which was desert-themed, featuring rock sculptures, palm trees and cacti, as well as plenty of Labubus and signs reading 'Stormi World' and 'Planet Aire'.

The entrance to the party featured an inflatable head, which was also used at Scott's 2021 Astroworld Festival.
The decision to include the prop left people disappointed, considering the tragedy that occurred at the event, in November 2021.
Crowd surges at the festival resulted in 10 people losing their lives, including nine-year-old Ezra Blount.
In addition, roughly 300 people were injured and treated at the scene, and 25 were taken to hospital.
Officials later confirmed that those who were killed died from compression asphyxia, and the deaths were eventually ruled as accidental.
The tragic event shook the music industry and highlighted serious issues around security and crowd control for major entertainment events.
The rapper was under criminal investigation after the event, though he was never charged.
Following pictures emerging from the party, people took to Reddit to express their upset over the decision.
One wrote: "This s**t was gross the first time now it’s literally disgusting. The blow-ups are in such horrible taste. It looks nothing like child’s birthday party."
While another said: "What in the actual f**k???? People f**king died!! These people are so completely disconnected from reality it's sickening."
And a third added: "There truly are no words to describe how hollow and creepy this is, I’m having trouble convincing my own eyes that it’s real."
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: "Literally blows my mind. Like okay, the first bday makes sense because a one year old doesn’t have interests of their own. But my 4 year old already has her entire Kpop party planned out and her birthday isn’t until October."
A fifth added: "They need to give this theme up."
UNILAD has reached out to Jenner and Scott for comment.
