Lil Nas X Hid His Love for Nicki Minaj

Jun 18, 2020 | 6:07 AM

Lil Nas X has revealed why he initially hid that he was a barb aka a Nicki Minaj fan. The “Old Town Road” tweeted at Minaj, asking for a collaboration. When one fan called him out for denying he was ever a fan, he responded, “i didn’t want people to know i was gay tbh.”

When another fan pointed out that being a Nicki Minaj fan doesn’t mean your gay, Lil Nas X responded, “it don’t but people will assume if you had an entire fan page dedicated to nicki u are gay. and the rap/music industry ain’t exactly built or accepting of gay men yet.”

Nicki actually responded, saying, “It was a bit of a sting when you denied being a barb, but I understand. Congratulations on building up your confidence to speak your truth. @LilNasX.” Lil Nas X responded, “”the generous queen, i love u. and i’m sorry i did that in a time where u were already getting so much bandwagon hate. i felt so bad, hoping u wouldn’t see my denial. i was just so afraid of people finding out about me and losing everything before i even got a chance.”
