“That was probably one of the first places where I was like, ‘Oh my God, this is for me,’” he said. “It’s like, my actual family. I’ve become closer with people who I met online than people who I’ve met in real life.” Adding, “I’ve learned the ways of the Internet… I’ve learned how to go viral, and what to stay out of.”

 

Lil Nas X also spoke bout his childhood, rise to stardom, and sexuality. “I feel like I’m much more out there with it,” he said. “It’s always been, ‘Okay, you’re gay, this needs to be sanitized.’… Gay, but let’s not include anything sexual. It’s like, ‘Be gay without being gay.’” His interview reportedly airs on January 2.
