Lil Nas X Denies Sweet Fan Story Jokingly: ‘I Am Very Mean In Person’

Lil Nas X continues to mock his fans, even when they praise him.

It all started when a Reddit user shared a touching story about meeting the “Industry Baby” star backstage at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday night (Aug. 28). The user explained that they were on their way out of the Prudential Center midway through the awards show when the elevator attendant mistakenly let them off on the wrong floor, which led them to spot LNX.

“I’m a shy person, so it took a lot for me to approach him, and I didn’t want to be annoying, but it’s my birthday, and this seemed like a once in a lifetime opportunity, so I did,” the fan wrote. “I asked (strangely) ‘Montero?'” ‘Yeeesss?’ he exclaimed. ‘I’m not supposed to be here, I’m sorry, but can I take a picture with you?’ I said. ‘Yes, but tell me I look classy,’ he laughed (he was in his VMA outfit). I obviously did, and he was so nice and posed before suggesting we change the lighting so the photos would be better.”

When Lil Nas X saw the reshared post on Pop Crave’s Twitter account, he responded jokingly, “this is not true.” In person, I am a jerk. I once slapped a fan for incorrectly singing the lyrics to Industry Baby.”
