Lil Nas X found himself having to rush off for an emergency bathroom break during a show in Atlanta earlier this week.
On Tuesday (September 27), the “Old Town Road” star performed at the Coca-Cola Roxy as part of his Long Live Montero tour. During one of the show’s costume change interludes, Lil Nas X remained off stage for an extra few minutes due to nature calling.

Sharing a message over the venue’s speaker system from the bathroom, the rapper told the crowd: “I’m backstage and this is not a part of the show, but I’m taking a mean shit.”
He added: “I’m gonna be, like, a minute or two, and I’ll be right back.”
The North American leg of Lil Nas X’s Long Live Montero tour continues on Saturday (October 1) at Nashville’s Municipal Auditorium. It then passes through Orlando, Miami, Los Angeles, Phoenix and San Francisco, before heading over to Europe.

Last month, Lil Nas X teamed up with M&M’S to release his own limited edition candy. The pastel-colored candies feature the rapper’s face and benefit the ongoing Sing For Hope Pianos initiative. The special collaboration was released on September 21 and is available for purchase at M&M’S Times Square store in New York City, while supplies last.
Fans can also purchase the candies online via a special landing page created for the project.
The Lil Nas X-inspired packs contain a one-pound bag of blue, pink and purple candy featuring the standard “M” logo, along with Lil Nas’ face, butterflies and hearts. The candy is delivered in a commemorative box paying homage to the 23-year-old star.
“Growing up I would have never thought my face would be on M&M’S but here we are, and it’s amazing,” Lil Nas X said in a statement. “And I love that we’re giving back to the art and music communities at the same time.”

Meanwhile, Lil Nas X fans have been left wondering whether he’s teased the identity of his new boyfriend after posting a pair of photos of himself and another man.
In one of the pictures shared on Thursday (September 29), a man poses for a quick photo opp with his back turned to the camera showing off a blue-and-white Montero varsity jacket from Lil Nas X’s latest merch drop. In the second photo, the rapper has his arms around the man whose face is covered with a star emoji.
