He got more than just the horses in the back. Twenty-one-year-old Lil Nas X rose to superstardom for his explosive hit 2019 Old Town Road, and then gagged the entertainment industry when he casually came out as gay at the end of Pride Month:

And as such, I truly, legally speaking, have no choice but to stan. For so many stars, coming out is a shameful process strung out over years of turmoil. Stars factor in not only personal shame but also professional opportunities that may be closed off to them after being a gay.

And I think it's because I come from a generation of people - ~~millennials~~ - used to celebs coming out in heartfelt People Magazine cover stories that I find Lil Nax X so damn refreshing. This guy set a new precedent for coming out. But that doesn't mean the world around him is as forward-thinking as he is. X puts up with all kinds of gay-bashing in his Insta comments and on Twitter, yet he's the last to call himself a victim, and just overall does whatever he damn well wants. I guess the word I'm looking for is... confidence? It's just inspiring to see a gay person who has some. I? Have none.

NE WAYZ. We got way the hell of track, because today we're here to talk about Lil Nas X's bootay in his latest thirst trap Insta post. In the first pic Lil Nas X flexes for the camera showing side ass and what, scientifically speaking, should be pubes. But the magic happens if you scroll over to the last pic. Lil Nas X seductively looks at the camera with his ass crack on full display ya'll! So does Lil Nas X have you working up an Old Town Load? Spillz!
