"Baby Montero is here", Montero Lamar Hill, popularly known as Lil Nas X, captioned his Instagram post in capital letters to announce the birth of his baby. Nas, had on September 2nd (Thursday), released maternity photoshoots to update everyone of his new baby (Montero – his debut album) on the way.
The pictures gained a lot of reactions and criticism as to why would a man be pregnant. He has been getting called out back-to-back by Twitter users (mostly), as the shoot seems to be infuriating them.
Since then (Sept 2), the Lil Nas X photoshoot has become a controversial issue and the talk of social media. He has since been trolled by everyone (including his fans) for his insincere act, but it doesn't seem to bother him.
He responded the same day to those hating on him and expressing disappointment about why he would do such a thing. The Popstar responded saying, "You on here calling a young mother to be ugly?". He probably reacted only because a woman came out to call him "ugly".
The rapper later explained in an interview with People that his pregnancy photoshoot was a mere joke at first. Nas said he did all that after he heard Megan Thee Stallion's verse on his "Dolla Sign Slime" for the first time. "I was like, 'Oh my God, this is amazing,' so I immediately called my stylist", he said. "She was like, 'wow, this all comes together. Your baby. "I was like, 'yeah, this is my baby, huh? As a joke, she was like, 'yeah, you should do a pregnancy shoot'. "I was like, 'You know what? That's a brilliant idea"....... and so on. He said.
This all comes down to the fact that Lil Nas X only pulled a pregnancy stunt to somehow promote his debut album. No matter how realistic his pregnancy photoshoot might look, Lil Nas X isn't pregnant!
Although days after he dropped his fake maternity photos online, Lil Nas X and his team went ahead to set up a 'baby registry' in support of donations to LGBTQ and human rights organizations, wait for it, he's only doing all this to gain more reactions to promote his newly released debut album.
Do not fall for his fake baby bump photos on social media. They are not real!
