Lil Nas X is looking for the male version of video vixens to complete his lifestyle as a “gay rapper.”
Taking to X to joke with fans on Sunday (September 1), the “Old Town Road” creator asked for the same-sex equivalent to popular eye candy like Lori Harvey and the Clermont Twins.

Lil Nas X gave country music a new identity with his breakthrough hit “Old Town Road” back in 2019, but he still wishes that stakeholders of the genre gave him his props.
In light of Beyoncé‘s recent success with Cowboy Carter, the 25-year-old rapper and singer reflected on his song not being included on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart due to, according to those in charge, the fact that it did not “embrace enough elements of today’s country music.”

Though he is “happy” for Bey having received the recognition he didn’t, the Georgia native admitted in a May interview with BBC: “I wish this would have happened for me. I wasn’t even able to experience this.”
Nas X intentionally debuted “Old Town Road” as a country song, listing it as such on his SoundCloud and iTunes.
According to Rolling Stone, after being signed to Columbia Records, the label decided against submitting the single for consideration on streaming country playlists, claiming Lil Nas X would never be accepted by Hip Hop fans with country accolades under his belt.
Meanwhile the Destiny’s Child alum topped Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart in April thanks to her latest project, making her the first Black woman to ever do so.

According to Billboard, Cowboy Carter debuted atop the tally with 407,000 equivalent album units in its first week. Twenty-three of the album’s 27 songs also made it to the Billboard Hot 100 chart, bringing her career total Billboard Hot 100 songs to 106. She is now just the 17th artist and only the third woman to ever bag this accolade.
Ten other songs from the album also cracked the top 50, including the Post Malone collaboration “Levii’s Jeans,” “Bodyguard,” and The Beatles cover “Blackbird.”
