Some disappointed fans lambasted the 24-year-old rapper, real name Montero Lamar Hill, as ‘disrespectful’ and’so wrong,’ while others praised the surprising decision amid the normal sea of celebrity one-upmanship.
Lil Nas X is well known for dressing up in flamboyant and entertainingly over-the-top clothes and having fun with his appearance, which frequently raises some eyebrows.
Naturally, Halloween would be no exception, and the hitmaker made certain to completely commit to his concept.
The chart-topper’s Old Town Road outfit was shown on Instagram on Tuesday in a video that swept around from a fake inflatable vulva with a string dangling from it to the celebrity, who was strutting down the road clutching the other end.
Lil Nas X was dressed in white trousers and tall heels with a bloodstained smock over the top, pausing to cock his leg as he posed beside a signpost.
He finished off his ensemble with a beautiful white long manicure and a white-blonde bob wig with crimson streaks.
‘This is so wrong,’ complained one follower, adding: ‘You don’t even know wat we go through every month just gone laugh at our pain [sic].’
‘I enjoy this look but the fact that you personally have never experienced the stigma, shame or pain involved with having a period makes me pause and think……. But why though?’ asked another.
‘I gotta say, I don’t think you’d want to BE a period if you could experience a period. Believe me, it ain’t no walk in the park!’ chimed in someone else.
‘But living through it month after month, year after year, is often a horror show! Peace!’
‘I almost threw up 😖,’ complained another follower.
‘Irritating, nasty and disgusting,’ blasted another person, while someone else added: ‘This is truly vile.’
However, others were very much here for it.
‘An utterly horrifying Halloween costume… hats off to you sir,’ praised one person, while another pointed to the obvious as they said: ‘Can’t wait to see what controversy stirs from this 😂😂’
Lil Nas X was also dubbed ‘an absolute menace’ and told: ‘We don’t deserve you.’
He was also lauded for shattering the taboo around menstruation and increasing attention to periods, which affect about half of the world’s population.
‘Well, that’s one way to normalise periods,’ one fan commented.
‘A lot of people in the comments are annoying, saying “you don’t know how badly it hurts so don’t dress like period” but please, can we agree that, besides the fact that it’s freaking funny, it’s also important to TALK ABOUT PERIODS??’ another pointed out.
‘Like this is a big taboo for a lot of people (women, men or everyone else),’ they argued.
