Lil Nas X posted some weird pictures of himself on social media pretending as if he’s expecting a baby.
Lil Nas X added the flicks on Twitter yesterday (September 2) to commemorate his forthcoming album, Montero. The rapper came up with the concept after his stylist labeled his debut album his “baby.”
In the picture, Lil Nas X rocks a flowing, white robe, while his head is adorned with a flower crown with a bouquet of white roses. He lovingly cradles his pregnant belly in the hilarious picture.
“SURPRISE! I can’t believe i’m finally announcing this. My little bundle of joy ‘MONTERO’ is due September 17, 2021,” Lil Nas X said.
Lil Nas X elaborated on the photoshoot, which was inspired by a line Megan Thee Stallion dropped on the song “Dolla Sign Slime,” which is one of the tracks on Montero.
Meg says “B**ch I do not do labor” on a leaked version of the song.
“I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is amazing,’ so I immediately called my stylist,” Lil Nas X giggled to People magazine. “She was like, ‘Wow, this all comes together. Your album. Your baby.’ I was like, ‘Yeah, this is my baby, huh?’ As a joke, she was like, ‘Yeah, you should do a pregnancy shoot.’ I was like, ‘You know what? That’s actually brilliant.'”
The photos drew an instant reaction on Twitter, where users had both positive and negative reactions.
Comedian Donnell Rawlings was also shocked by the pictures. He wrote in a since-deleted Tweet:
“I’m with freedom of whatever, but at this point, Nas is f**king with the minds of kids… how do I explain this to my son?”
“N**ga said ‘how do i explain this to my son’ i’m screaming,” Nas replied.
