Lil Nas X is facing an unexpected health challenge—partial facial paralysis. The “Montero” hitmaker revealed in an Instagram video that the right side of his face isn’t moving properly, making it hard to smile or laugh naturally.
“When I smile, this is me doing a full smile right now… what the f**k!” he joked in the clip. While the exact cause remains unclear, medical experts suggest it could be Bell’s Palsy, nerve damage, or another underlying issue.

Fans quickly rallied behind him, flooding his comments with well-wishes. Unfazed, Lil Nas X later posted, “GUYS I AM OK!! SHAKE UR A* FOR ME INSTEAD!”* proving his trademark humor is intact.
As he recovers, all eyes are on his upcoming album DREAMBOY, expected later this year.
