In a shocking turn of events, Lil Nas X was hospitalized early Thursday morning after an intense encounter with police in Studio City, Los Angeles. Witnesses reported seeing a naked man, later identified as the 26-year-old rapper, wandering Ventura Boulevard and acting erratically.
At around 5:50 a.m., the Los Angeles Police Department received multiple calls from concerned bystanders who spotted Lil Nas X in distress. Officers arrived on the scene to find him incoherently speaking to a passerby, urging them to stop filming before launching into an impromptu dance.
The situation escalated when Lil Nas X charged at the officers as they approached him. In response, they swiftly handcuffed him and transported him to a local hospital due to suspicions of a possible overdose.
Currently, he remains under medical supervision and could face charges related to the incident. A representative for the star has yet to comment.
This incident follows a series of bizarre posts on Lil Nas X's Instagram, where he wiped all previous content just days before the confrontation. His recent posts included mirror selfies, glimpses of his artwork, and cluttered views of his living space, alongside a name change to 'QUEEN MADELINE.'
Lil Nas X, born Montero Hill, last released a full-length project titled 'Montero' in 2021, which followed the immense success of his hit 'Old Town Road.' Fans are eagerly anticipating his new album, 'Dreamboy,' which he has teased will include the forthcoming single 'Light Again!' set to drop in 2024.
With this unexpected incident making headlines, fans and followers alike are left concerned and eager for updates on Lil Nas X's health and future.
