The rapper and singer spoke on a recent episode of Outlaws with TS Madison, released Tuesday, where the conversation turned to dating experiences and identity. During the discussion, Lil Nas X said he “99 percent leans towards men” but explained that he does not completely rule out the possibility of intimacy with women.
“I’m saying, if there’s a drunk night, I’m having a good time…” he said. “I’ve had feelings, but they’re mostly emotional when it comes to women and not sexual, usually.”
He went on to explain that he does not want to place strict limits on himself and said he often feels connected to women socially and emotionally. “I’ve never had sex with a girl,” he admitted.
Lil Nas X also described how he experiences attraction, noting that physical chemistry can exist without necessarily leading to sex.
“Everybody knows when somebody’s sexy,” he continued. “I think I’m more like I’d be like more into kissing or something.”
Elsewhere in the interview, the Grammy-winning artist addressed speculation that has surrounded him in the past, including accusations of queerbaiting. He also reflected on his early rise to fame, revealing that before the release of his breakout 2019 single “Old Town Road,” he had only been intimate with two people.
Lil Nas X became one of music’s most visible LGBTQ artists after publicly coming out in 2019. Since then, he has been recognized for challenging traditional norms in hip-hop and pop culture through bold visuals, fashion choices, and high-profile performances.
The artist has remained in headlines in recent months for both his music and legal matters. Earlier this month, reports stated he was ordered to participate in a mental health treatment program following charges connected to an arrest involving Los Angeles police last year.
His latest interview adds another personal chapter to a career often defined by openness, reinvention, and public conversation.
