Lil Nas X Hospitalized After He ‘Lost Control’ of Half of His Face
“Bro, I can’t even laugh right now, bro. What the f***?

Lil Nas X has revealed he has been hospitalized after a mysterious illness left the right side of his face completely paralyzed. Sharing an Instagram story from his hospital bed, the “Old Town Road” rapper told his 10.4 million followers: “This is me doing a full smile right now by the way. It’s like, what the f***? Bro, I can’t even laugh right now, bro. What the f***? Ah! Oh my God!” Several hours later, he shared another clip, zooming in on one side of his face and saying “we normal over here,” before panning across to the other side and saying “We crazy over here!” The video’s caption simply read “I’m so cooked.” But despite the confusion, the rapper appeared to be in high spirits and told his fans not to worry about him. “Guys I am OK!! Stop being sad for me!” he said. “Shake ur a** for me instead!” He later told his followers: “Imma look funny for a lil bit but that’s it.”
