Lil Nas X paused concert for bathroom emergency: ‘I was literally back there dropping demons’

Lil Nas X paused a concert after nature called, and he disclosed the emergency bathroom break to a cheering crowd of fans.

The ā€œIndustry Babyā€ performer candidly told concertgoers in the middle of a show in Atlanta, Georgia earlier this week that he needed to delay his performance because he urgently needed to go to the bathroom. 

In a video shared on social media, Nasā€™ voice came through the venue speakers as he explained to the cheering crowd that he needed to remain off stage for a few minutes. 

ā€œIā€™m backstage and this is not a part of the show, but Iā€™m taking a mean s**t,ā€ Nas told the crowd. ā€œIā€™m gonna be like a minute or two, and Iā€™ll be right back.ā€ 

Nas retweeted the viral video and said he was 100 per cent serious about having a bathroom emergency mid-gig.

ā€œLmao people really thought I was joking, I was literally back there dropping demons into that toilet,ā€ Lil Nas X wrote. 

Nasā€™ fans were laughing alongside the ā€œOld Town Roadā€ singerā€™s unplanned bathroom break. 

The ā€œMontero (Call Me By Your Name)ā€ singer began his Long Live Montero tour in September and set the internet ablaze after he opened one concert by voguing to BeyoncĆ©ā€™s ā€œPure/Honeyā€

Nas, the true king of trolling, made headlines for his epic reaction to a group of protesters outside of his Boston, Massachusetts show on 18 September. 

Lil Nas X had his team hand out pizza to the protestors because it was ā€œreally good promoā€. He later tweeted that he had ā€œaccidentally fallen in love with one of the homophobic protestorsā€ despite the group rejecting his offer of pizza goodness. 

He also humorously urged fans to stop doing poppers at his concerts, leaving fans in stitches on social media yet again. Lil Nas X bluntly told fans via Twitter that they ā€œdo not need [their] a**hole relaxed to see [him] perform ā€˜Industry Babyā€™ā€

One fan described the message as ā€œone of the craziest string of wordsā€ theyā€™ve ā€œread on this appā€ while another said they felt ā€œseen in an uncomfortable wayā€.

Lil Nas X quipped in another message on Twitter that he wasnā€™t ā€œgoing to be proud of [himself] until furriesā€ showed up at his concerts.

Some fans posted that they had tried to get into one of his concerts while wearing their fursuits but said that ā€œsecurity wouldnā€™t let [them] inā€. Nas quickly apologised and said he ā€œjust yelledā€ at security, urging the fans to come back to the show.
