When Saweetie liked a post that questioned Lil Nas X's sexuality, she claims she wasn't being dishonest with him.
After liking a tweet that implies Lil Nas X is not truly homosexual despite coming out, Saweetie draws attention to herself. The "Icy Grl" rapper claims she didn't immediately spot the tweet's dubious message.
A tweet that criticized Lil Nas X's performance at Lollapalooza on Friday night did not escape the attention of the "Old Town Road" rapper's observant followers, who saw that Saweetie had liked it. Fans called out the Los Angeles rapper on Saturday for her shady tweet, which suggested that Lil Nas X was not "really gay" and was instead disguising himself as such. This caused the rapper to defend herself.
"I feel like he's not really gay or not really that feminine it's so forced," the post said.
There was a misconception that Saweetie agreeing with the original poster because she liked the article. Following the success of his single "Old Town Road," Lil Nas X came out as homosexual. Since then, he has expressed his sexuality in a variety of ways, most notably with the release of his record "Montero," in which he was depicted in sexy attire seducing the "devil."
Why do people suddenly believe that playing this game will protect them from social harassment and discrimination because they are gay? SO WEIRD," a supporter of Lil Nas X exclaimed.
Later, Saweetie admitted that she didn't intend to hurt the rapper and that she didn't like the video. The rapper commented on Twitter, "He was lookin fine af that's why I liked the video I didn't see the shadiness.... *unlikes*"
One supporter questioned why the other person was dishonest. "Girl, you can literally read a caption before watching a video," a different person added.
