Travis Scott Apologizes to LGBT Community After Homophobic Slurs at Concert

Travis Scott may have lost some of his fans after he used several homophobic slurs during a concert back in March of 2015. Now that his new album, Rodeo, is hitting stores, the rapper is apologizing to the LGBT community for the harsh comments he previously made.

According to Hollywood Life, Scott is claiming that he's not a homophobe, and took to Twitter declaring that he would never "disrespect" the LGBT community in the future.

In the video below, it shows Scott making nasty comments after he believed that the audience wasn't hyped up or thrilled at his performance. The 23-year-old said, "I ain't cool with none of you f*ggots who just sitting here looking like a bunch of qu**rs," he said during the concert earlier this year.

After his remarks hit social media, the rapper sent a huge apology on his Twitter, to anyone that was upset by his words. Scott tweeted, “AT MY SHOWS I GET A LIL TURNT UP. SORRY FOR THAT BUT NEVER WILL I EVER DISRESPECT THAT COMMUNITY.” He continued, “THANKS BEING SAID MY APOLOGIES TO ANYONE THATS OFFENDED. MY WORDS WERENT OUT OF BAD MEANING AND IN NO DISRESPECT.” [sic]

After apologizing, Scott was surprised by Justin Bieber at his album release party in New York. Bieber performed his new song, "What Do You Mean" as the crowd jumped up and down with the rapper and singer.

Along with his album, Scott is selling his own personalized action figure. The toy, which looks quite like the rapper, is being sold for $150! Barbie doesn't even cost that much. MStars News wants to know: Would you buy one of his figures?

One person we are sure purchased the album, along with the action figure, is his pal and fellow music artist, Rihanna. Ri-Ri made it clear that she couldn't wait until the album dropped.

The singer made her way to Amoeba Music on Sunday, September 6th in West Hollywood, Calif. to buy her copy of the new music. After the 27-year-old singer bought her hard copy, she posed for a photo in her bedroom slippers with excitement.

 Finally!!!!! Got my hard copy of #RODEO

Hopefully, Scott works on his comments and behavior! For the record, he doesn't like being called A$AP Rocky by accident. In the video below, the rapper snapped on a man for calling him the wrong name and it didn't look pretty.

MStars News wants to know: do you believe Scott is sorry for his comments or just trying to sell records? Or do you think this is part of the culture and should not be taken so seriously? Sound off and tell us what you think.
