Lil Nas X Arrested After Wandering Streets In Underwear
Lil Nas X was arrested in Los Angeles early on Thursday morning after police responded to reports of a man walking down Ventura Boulevard wearing only his underwear and cowboy boots. According to LAPD, the 26-year-old rapper allegedly charged at officers and punched one in the face. He was taken to a hospital for a suspected overdose before being discharged and booked at Valley Jail.
Unverified videos shared by TMZ show the artist strutting down the street, inviting strangers to a “party,” putting a traffic cone on his head, and telling a bystander, “Didn’t I tell you to put the phone down?” The footage sparked confusion online, with fans speculating about his condition. Police haven’t confirmed whether he was under the influence or in a state of distress, and his team has not issued a statement.
Lil Nas X, best known for his record-breaking hit “Old Town Road,” was recently teasing new music from his upcoming album Dreamboy. The unexpected arrest has cast a shadow over his comeback, raising questions about his well-being just as anticipation for the new release was building.
