Still riding high on the success of his #1 chart-topping song “Montero,” as well as its oh-so-scandalously-Satanic video, rapper Lil Nas X has announced a new clothing line to accompany the song.
Nas X announced his own, official T-shirt line with designer Pizzaslime with apparel that ties in with “Montero,” as well as the controversy of the video. One shirt features an “I [heart] Jesus” logo with the subscript “and that one part in the ‘Montero’ music video by Lil Nas X when he gets nasty with the devil because it was a cool form of self-expression and art.”
Another–and our favorite of the line–reads “I watched the ‘Montero’ video by Lil Nas X and all I got was this lousy shirt and now I’m also gay and love Satan,” a reference to a now-notorious lap dance that Lil Nas X gives to the devil in the “Montero” video.
Each shirt retails for $33.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
The introduction of the “Montero” spin-off clothing line follows the introduction of “Satan Shoes” by Lil Nas X and designer MSCHF. The special edition, modified Nike shoes allegedly contained a drop of human blood. Legal issues filed by Nike didn’t stop the footwear from selling out all 666 pairs in under a minute, each priced at $1,018 a pair. Meanwhile, “Montero” continues to dominate the music charts where it became the first #1 song about gay sex.

Seems to me the right wing should love him, as he clearly has a deep understanding of capitalism and how to use it.
And the christians seem not to notice that in the video the lap dance is just a ploy to get satan’s guard down so Lil Nas X can break his neck.

I, too, would be VERY distracted by a lap dance from Li Nas X.

They’re so hypocritical, phony and imbecilic they don’t even know what they’re protesting. He’s definitely getting the last laugh.
jcool
maybe a line of underwear next, that he could model?

Shhhh… no no. Even if you don’t like him he keeps hitting number one and every single has been a hit. I personally am proud of him. He high-kicked that closet door down then burned the whole thing to ash and I love how open he’s being about his sexuality now. It’s crazy how… not open he was in his older songs. The contrast.

What the hell have you done with your life? Besides whining like a little bitter queen about someone doing better than you.

I’m very proud of him. He’s a talented musician, skilled marketer, and a natural comedian with a razor-sharp wit. Anytime you can make a video and get right-wing preachers, TV commentators and members of Congress screeching about it and you when it’s clear they completely miss the message, you definitely have something significant going on. Do your thing, Lil Nas X!
