On Ventura Boulevard around 5:30 AM, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) received calls reporting a man wandering in his underwear. When officers arrived, they alleged Lil Nas X, born Montero Lamar Hill, charged at them, leading to his arrest on suspicion of battery. Authorities later took him to the hospital for potential overdose treatment.
Unverified footage published by TMZ showed the Old Town Road star dancing on the street in his underwear and cowboy boots, urging passersby to join the festivities. This incident comes just before the highly anticipated release of his second studio album, Dreamboy, expected later this year.
Lil Nas X rose to fame in 2019, becoming the first openly gay man to win a Country Music Association award with his hit single "Old Town Road," which also secured two Grammys and set a record for the longest-running number one song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
Throughout his career, he has sparked controversies, notably around the video for "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)," which received backlash from conservative circles. In a satirical response, he released a fake apology video that included infamous moments from the video and made light of his critics on social media.
As discussions around his career evolve, the question remains: Is Lil Nas X the defining star of this generation?
