Lil Nas X comes out as gay on Twitter and everyone’s loving it

American rapper and singer Lil Nas X on Sunday revealed his sexuality in a tweet asking fans to listen carefully to the lyrics of his song ‘C7osure’.

“Some of y’all already know, some of y’all don’t care, some of y’all not gone fwm no more,” the artist said.

“Why it’s always what you like? It’s always what you like, huh. Ain’t no more actin’, man that forecast say I should just let me grow,” the song’s lyrics read.

Seemingly, Lil Nas X waited until the very last day of Pride Month to drop the hint, confirming that he is gay.

Twitter absolutely loved it, and praised the star for his revelation after the recent success of country-rap song “Old Town Road”.

The announcement also gave fans some new perspective on Lil Nas X’s lyrics.

As for the man himself.
