Alec Baldwin's daughter Ireland has compared the social media reaction to the recent deaths at the Astroworld festival to the shooting on the set of Rust.

In an Instagram post that has since been deleted, the model, 26, spoke out against the spread of "misinformation" on social media platforms in the wake of tragedies.

On Friday, November 5, Travis Scott's Astroworld festival at Houston’s NRG Park saw a crowd crush towards the front of the stage during the rapper's performance.

Eight people died, between the ages of 14 and 28, while more were injured. Scott and the organizers of the event have been sued by at least three concertgoers over injuries they sustained.

Last month, Baldwin was involved in a shooting on the set of Western film Rust, when the actor unintentionally shot and killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins during a rehearsal.

Authorities are investigating the deadly incident, which saw the 63-year-old actor unintentionally fire a prop gun - which contained live ammunition - while rehearsing for a scene in which he pointed a gun at the camera.

Hutchins lost her life and the film's director, Joel Souza, sustained non-life-threatening injuries during the shooting.

As the investigation into the Rust shooting continues, Ireland took to social media to compare the response to the two tragedies.

In her Instagram Story – which was captured by Daily Mail before being deleted, she wrote: "Y'all are really killing me these days. You believe everything that you see on Twitter and TikTok and completely bandwagon on spreading misinformation.

"First, you were armory/stunt coordination pros when it came to the horrific tragedy involving my dad...and now Travis Scott is demonic because he ALLOWED people to die at his show?"

"I'll start by saying I am heartbroken for the families who lost a loved one. Everyone should feel safe when they are going to enjoy live music. But it's not Travis Scott's fault," she added.

"Any musician would validate that you can’t see or hear anyone up there. Especially when wearing in-ear monitors."

She then told followers to "do a little research" before "spewing cancel culture bulls***".

"People lost their children at this who and you’ve got say is that Travis Scott’s music is demonic and be [sic] belongs in prison? Jesus," she added.
