This past Saturday, during his appearance on Saturday Night Live’s 46th season finale, the “Old Town Road” singer revealed more than he wanted to. In the midst of the sexy all-male revue of dancers around him, and while performing his already controversial “Montero (Call Me By Your Name),” Lil Nas X backed up to the stripper pole on a platform behind him to begin showing off his skills dancing against the prop.
Lil Nas X has teased “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” online for months. It even appeared in a LogiTech Super Bowl ad this year and song’s title is a reference to the Oscar-winning gay romance Call Me By Your Name. Lil Naz X, who came out last year on the last day of Pride month, is undoubtedly declaring his pride over his sexuality in the many scenes here, from lap-dancing with the king of the underworld, to wearing haute couture, dreadlocks and some of the most scrumptious wigs a male rapper has dared wear yet in a video.
