The young rapper went in too hard on a stripper pole
Considering the kerfuffle caused by Lil Nas X and his most recent single 'Montero (Call Me By Your Name)', you'd think that a little thing like a ripped crotch would be no big deal.
Turns out, however, that there is a way to embarrass the young rapper.
Lil Nas X was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live at the weekend, and performed a titillating dance routine to 'Call Me By Your Name' that saw him gyrating on a stripper pole.
At one point, he stretches too far and rips the crotch of his leather trousers - around the 2:20 mark on the video below - and immediately realises his mistake.
He performed the rest of the track with his hand covering his crotch, but it seems that he took it in his stride, judging by Twitter...
i know i do a lot of planned shit but ripping my pants on live television is not one of them

at first i was afraid to even perform. then we rehearsed for 2 weeks, then all of the dancers got removed because one had covid and new ones had to learn the routine in 24 hours, and then i ended up ripping my pants and couldn’t finish. everything happens for a reason tho lol?
