Lil Nas X sparks buzz after throwing cash at male stripper weeks after plea deal - Watch Viral Video

Lil Nas X is back in the spotlight after a viral video showed him tossing cash at a male stripper during a night out inside a famous club, just weeks after resolving a legal matter through a plea deal. The clip, exclusively obtained by TMZ, has sparked mixed reactions. Known for embracing controversy and bold self-expression, the rapper appears unfazed while partying. The 'Old Town Road' rapper was reportedly seen showering cash on an exotic dancer during a Saturday night outing at The Abbey in West Hollywood.

Lil Nas X was taken into custody last year after roaming on the streets of Los Angeles just in his underwear and allegedly assaulting three police officers. He later reached a plea agreement that includes participation in a mental health diversion program.



According to TMZ, eyewitnesses said the energy inside the venue was high as three male performers took over the stage with energetic dance routines. At one point, Lil Nas X stepped forward holding a stack of cash and appeared especially drawn to one of the dancers.

Sources told the outlet that he repeatedly made trips between the bar and the stage, each time returning with more money to toss during the performance. A bartender was reportedly keeping an eye on his cash while he moved around, as the rapper continued to engage with the show throughout the night.


Lil Nas X, born as Montero Lamar Hill, made history in 2019 by becoming the first openly gay artist to win a Country Music Association honor, thanks to his breakout hit Old Town Road. The track went on to achieve massive global success, earning two Grammy Awards and setting a new benchmark on the Billboard Hot 100 by staying at number one for a record-breaking 17 weeks.
