Travis Scott, Kylie Jenner wrap up huge weekend in Houston

On Sunday, Mayor Sylvester Turner declared it "Astroworld Day" in Houston to recognize Scott and the debut of the Astroworld Festival.

HOUSTON — It was a huge weekend for Missouri City native and superstar Travis Scott.

His inaugural Astroworld Festival was a complete success.

His other half, reality star Kylie Jenner, cashed in on her boyfriend’s visit to H-town by surprising some of her fans at a local beauty shop.

Hundreds of fans greeted Jenner as she arrived at the Ulta Beauty store near the Galleria to promote her make-up line.

Karla Martinez, a die-hard fan said, “I have her notifications on Kylie Comestics. I saw they were coming to houston and we live all the way in Rosenberg so we made a drive.”

Some like Heather Ryder risked it all for a chance to see the star.

“It’s all worth it,” Ryder said. “I canceled work. I was supposed to go in and work at three and I said, ‘I have to go. I have to go meet Kylie Jenner.’ I don’t care if I get fired.”

For those that don’t get the hype, Andrea Espin explains.

“We’re just excited because it has never come to stores. It’s always online and it’s really hard to get them at times so for her to have them at Ulta, it’s really amazing for all of us.”

Jenner’s supporters say there’s a reason the 21-year-old is worth almost a billion dollars.

“The cool thing about her, like I said, her lip kits that it comes with a lip liner and her full lipstick, it makes just the lips look a little like big in a way.

Jenner’s best friend and make-up collaborator Jordyn Woods said the love they receive is overwhelming.

Woods said, “It’s just the internet comes to real life and you get to feel the love and see everyone in real life, it’s beautiful.”

Travis Scott also wrapped an unforgettable weekend in Houston.

His sold out Astroworld Festival on Saturday received rave reviews, he opened an already popular Astroworld pop-up shop in Rice Village selling merchandise.

On Sunday, his acheivements were recognized by the city.

“For I, Sylvester turner, mayor of the city of Houston hereby proudly proclaim November 18, 2018 as Astroworld Day/Travis Scott Day in the city of Houston.”

Scott dedicates his accomplishments to the city he loves.

“I grew up here my whole life. I was inspired by Astroworld in 05 when they took it away,” Scott said. “It kind of took a big piece of my heart away. I didn’t have anywhere to go.”

He’s now a hometown hero giving the world a piece of Houston through his music.
