Lil Nas X Reveals He Had ‘So Much Anxiety’ When People Learned He Once Ran A Nicki Minaj Fan Account: This Is Going To Ruin Everything For Me

Lil Nas X definitely knows how to get the people going!  It’s not uncommon for the 22-year-old rapper to trend for his musical performances or online actions. Despite seemingly being confident in who he is now, that wasn’t always the case for Lil Nas X.

As previously reported, last year Lil Nas X made headlines for admitting he once lied about his love for fellow rap star Nicki Minaj, 38. When asked by a fan of the ‘Super Base’ rapper via Twitter why he lied, Lil Nas X replied,

“I didn’t want people to know i was a gay tbh”

Another fan joined in on the conversation to state that being a fan of Nicki Minaj does not make you gay. Lil Nas X responded and confirmed that he once ran a popular Twitter account dedicated to Nicki Minaj. He wrote,

“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.”

During a recent interview, Lil Nas X talked about the Nicki fan account he once ran and shared that people discovering he was behind the profile gave him anxiety. He said,

“It was so much anxiety. Like, I literally felt like, Oh, my God, this is like a setup. And I’m going to die soon. It was much darker in my head than people were probably seeing. And it was also like, D*mn, I’ve been working hard, like not sleeping, and I just made it to the music industry, and this is going to ruin everything for me.”

When asked to clarify if he meant being gay or running a Nicki fan account was going to harm his career he said,

“Both. Mainly being gay. That was the main thing I was most afraid of.”

He also shared that he hoped to have Nicki, along with Drake, on his debut album ‘Montero,’ but unfortunately, things didn’t work out that way.

“I don’t usually ask for features like that. But for every feature I did ask for on this album, like, every single one of them worked…besides Drake and Nicki.”

He added,

“??I didn’t ask them directly. I wanted Nicki on ‘Industry Baby,’ and I wanted Drake on ‘Dolla Sign Slime,’ with Megan [Thee Stallion]. Yeah, but you know, I feel like things always work out. Jack Harlow ended up being, like, the best option. I’m not sure how comfortable Nicki would have felt with that video or whatnot.”
