Lil Nas X is embracing his bold fashion history with a mix of pride and playful embarrassment\u2014especially when it comes to his unforgettable look at the 2023 Met Gala.<\/p>\n
Appearing on The Jennifer Hudson Show<\/em>, the Panini<\/em> singer reflected on one of his riskiest style moments: the shimmering, crystal-covered body makeup and thong ensemble that turned heads on the Met steps.<\/p>\n \u201cThere are definitely moments where I\u2019m just like, \u2018OK, I love that I did that; I don\u2019t want to see it ever again,\u2019\u201d he joked, referring to the nearly-nude outfit. \u201cThe one from the Met Gala, like two years ago where I\u2019m, like, kind of nak*d and covered in crystals.\u201d<\/p>\n He recounted the hilariously awkward moment of bumping into fellow Met attendee Bad Bunny: \u201cI can\u2019t explain how it felt walking up to him, saying hi, chatting, and walking away knowing that he\u2019s seeing your a** covered in crystals.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite the vulnerability that came with such a daring look, Nas X made it clear\u2014he doesn\u2019t regret a thing. \u201cI want to get out of my comfort zone, I want to feel good about my body,\u201d he told Hudson. \u201cAnd then just looking back, going, \u2018Damn, everybody saw my a** covered in, like, silver crystal.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n His 2023 Met Gala look was in line with the theme \u201cKarl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,\u201d<\/em> honoring the late fashion icon. While the look might have shocked some, it also solidified Nas X\u2019s place as one of fashion\u2019s most fearless risk-takers.<\/p>\n Fast-forward to this year\u2019s Met Gala, held on May 5, where the theme shifted to \u201cSuperfine: Tailoring Black Style.\u201d<\/em> The blue carpet dazzled with stars like Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, and Teyana Taylor\u2014each putting their own spin on Black elegance and innovation in fashion.<\/p>\n As for Nas X, don\u2019t be surprised if he stuns again next year\u2014just maybe with a little more fabric involved.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lil Nas X is embracing his bold fashion history with a mix of pride and playful embarrassment\u2014especially when it comes\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":73901,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[21965],"class_list":["post-73900","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-lil-nas-x"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73900","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73900"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73900\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73901"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73900"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73900"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73900"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
