Lil Nas X Reveals He’s Dating Someone In New Interview

Bobby Lytes, one of the stars of Love & Hip Hop, has been shooting his shot at Lil Nas X ever since the day he came out as a gay man. Every time certain outlets write about him, he can be found in the comments, sending his love to the rapper and publicly wishing to be taken out on a date from the “Rodeo” singer. Unfortunately for Bobby Lytes, his heart may be broken because, in a new profile for CR Men, Lil Nas X revealed that there is a special someone in his life right now.

For the first time since his coming-out last year, Lil Nas X is opening up about his romantic life, admitting that he is dating someone but that it’s still very fresh.

“I’m dating someone right now,” said LNX about his current love life. “We’re not in a relationship yet, but it’s been on and off for the past few months. I’m maybe going to try to go steady this time.”

He went on to explain why he’s not rushing to go public with any potential boyfriends, claiming that the tabloids always get ahead of themselves.

“I feel like if I put any guy solo in a picture with me, we’re automatically dating,” said the artist. “One time, I was sitting in Subway with my brother, and then a few hours later there was [a headline], ‘Lil Nas X and his boyfriend eating Subway to celebrate 17 weeks at number one.’”

Hopefully, everything goes well for Lil Nas X and the guy he’s dating.

Thankfully, Bobby Lytes wasn’t too shaken up about the reveal, joking that he’s the secret man and that he’s been telling folks this entire time, but nobody listened.

“Why are y’all so childish,” he asked in The Shade Room’s comments. “I been told y’all we’ve been dating.”

LNX has also been teasing the arrival of his official debut studio album, which he claims is 98% done on Twitter. Who wants to hear new music from him?

Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show Just Swept The Emmys

Bad Bunny is officially an Emmy winner — and not just once. At Saturday’s Creative Arts Emmys, his Super Bowl LX Halftime Show swept every single category it was nominated in, all seven of them, making it the most-decorated nominee of the night.

The headline win was Outstanding Variety Special (Live), a category the show became only the third halftime show ever to claim. From there it just kept going: music direction, choreography, sound mixing, lighting design, technical direction and camerawork, and directing all went home with the Puerto Rican star’s team. There’s technically an eighth trophy with his name attached, too, though it won’t land in his hands — the “Saturday Night Live” episode he hosted last season separately won Outstanding Makeup for a Variety, Nonfiction, or Reality Program.

The sweep is good news for Jay-Z as well. As an executive producer on the halftime show, he now has two Emmys to his name, having previously won for producing Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX performance in 2025 — the show that, until Saturday, held the record for most Emmys won by a Super Bowl performance.

Bad Bunny wasn’t the only one having a night. Sabrina Carpenter picked up her first Emmy as a performer and executive producer on “The Muppet Show,” edging out Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour | The Final Show” for Outstanding Variety Special (Pre-Recorded). The Billy Joel HBO miniseries “And So It Goes” won for sound mixing on a nonfiction program, and 50 Cent’s Diddy documentary “Sean Combs: The Reckoning” took home picture editing honors. A big weekend for live spectacle, all around.

Rod Wave Hints at NBA YoungBoy Stadium Tour as Fans Dream of Joint Run

Rod Wave has got hip hop fans excited after seemingly teasing a massive stadium tour with NBA YoungBoy. The idea came after DJ Akademiks said on Twitter that he wanted to see the two rappers work together on a tour or maybe even a collab project. NBA YoungBoy is overseas right now, but fans haven’t stopped wondering what a joint run between the two would look like.

Akademiks suggested the two should collaborate on an album or EP and called for a YB & Rod Wave tour. Rod Wave responded with a brief message that he’d already spoken with YoungBoy about taking the tour to stadiums. The response immediately sparked excitement about the two artists performing together. Over the years, Rod Wave and NBA YoungBoy have developed chemistry, with both artists building passionate, loyal fan bases in their corners of hip hop.

But a joint stadium tour would be logistically difficult. YoungBoy has left the United States, but that doesn’t mean he’s out of the country for good, and he could still be away long enough for a major concert run. The prospect is especially tantalizing for fans, as major headlining artists rarely join forces for extensive joint tours. So if the plans do go through, a big run with Rod Wave and YoungBoy might be a moment for their audiences.

Such an endeavor could also be notable for Rod Wave with his experience with concert promotion. It’s said that his Mainstay Touring company booked his own shows and Ye’s SoFi Stadium concerts earlier this year. Another big opportunity for the company would be a longer concert series with YoungBoy.

YoungBoy’s recent “MASA” tour and accompanying documentary also show his ability to draw strong fan engagement and attention around a live project. But the potential stadium tour remains hypothetical. Rod Wave’s comment gives fans something to look forward to, but it doesn’t mention a formal joint tour announcement.
