Lil Nas X Very Real With Fans

When Lil Nas X got sick before his performance in Los Angeles on Wednesday (10-19) he made sure his fans knew the details. From a microphone backstage, he announced that he needed a little extra time to prepare, because he threw up.

He said, “Can y’all hear me? I just vomited so give me five minutes. It’s not a joke. Give me a second.”

He entered the stage 10 minutes later and performed “Panini” before speaking to the crowd. He explained to fans what happened, and pointed to a cup on the stage, that was there in case he got sick again. Luckily none occurred during the concert.

This wasn’t the first time Lil Nas X had to pause a show to complete some personal business backstage. During a concert in Atlanta last month, he announced from backstage that he was in the midst of pooping and would be back in “like a minute or two.”
