Lil Nas X Explains His Style Evolution | Style History | GQ

From his Christopher John Rogers "Prince Inspired" neon green suit to his 2021 VMAs Versace pink cowboy look, Lil Nas X reviews some of his most iconic, memorable, and meme-worthy looks.

And here I was thinking I couldn't love him more
He's a Steven Universe fan...omg

[@outofalessystem7280]

Same! omg, he's the artist I was waiting for.

[@gomz_asap]

ON GOD BRUH

[@SRGProductions]

Bruh I love Steven Universe!

[@coolkid4457]

i like how Nas impulsively switches to a british accent

[@damunaik4]

right? I was hoping someone else notices XD

[@camiegaming8190]

And alittle african

[@TheRealEli717]

He said the last picture "was a different person"....he remembered that innocent feeling. No pressure, just life and being a kid. He has had to grow up really fast. He has the world on his shoulders, so many people looking up to him.

[@jaanee2786]

Must be tough being a multi miljonair 😔😔

[@chryslinfitchgerald2347]

You’re right cause money totally over trumps your humanity, your struggles your emotions all the above👌🏽🙄

[@Hulk1566]

Hearing him say he loves Steven Universe gives me more reason to love this guy.

[@bascal133]

The interviewer has a nice vibe and is funny.

[@outofalessystem7280]

He got me when he mentioned blue diamond and defended pink diamond, I love him more in every interview, he's so cute and look innocent even if he isn't ♡♡♡

[@BD-lq4id]

I know he's still putting on a persona for the camera, but its nice to see Lil Nas X becoming more comfortable being himself with his mannerisms and how he's holding himself. I hope I'm making sense and not being insulting

[@sumwherevfar]

the fact that he started tearing up omg 🥺 he’s so cute 🥰

[@carolcsantos1]

He nailed the parallel universe concept of avoiding any interference in the past. Respect!

[@englishmuffin7]

I swear Lil Nas X is so attractive, it makes me wish I could find a guy that has that style and looks and also be okay if I wore his stuff too. I'm glad to see him more comfortable with himself.

[@valentine4104]

lil nas x being a steven universe fan.. i love him your honor.

[@whatthewix6140]

This was fun to watch. That suit is amazing, especially for a Steven Universe reference.

Nobody:
Me: He has the MOST beautiful hands I've ever seen. Every interview he does I'm just mesmerized by them.

[@twinteen2]

I’m obsessed with him in those short/cut-off jackets

[@sinfulblacksoul]

Seeing how his outfits and fashion sense changed over the years is so insane 😂

[@jawanzaroberts5849]

That's what making money does to a guy

[@giannisksanthopoulos4300]

fashion??? Dude my 60year old mother dresses like him 10 year ago. Is this fashion... to dress like a woman

[@TJ0564]

@@giannisksanthopoulos4300 Idk why you’re so concerned about a person’s fashion and sense of style when it has nothing to do with you.

[@giannisksanthopoulos4300]

@@TJ0564 i am asking why wearing old woman clothes is fashion?

[@TJ0564]
