American singer and rapper, Montero Lamar Hill, popularly known as Lil Nas X, has shared a concerning health update with his fans.
In an Instagram video on Monday, he revealed that one side of his face has become paralyzed, and he’s struggling to smile and laugh.
He posted a photo of himself in an apparent hospital room, wearing a patient gown where he explained that he’s lost control of the right side of his face, making everyday actions like smiling and laughing challenging.
Lil Nas X said “And when I smile, this is me doing a full smile right now by the way. Bro, I can’t even laugh right.”
Fans and celebrities, including actress Taraji P. Henson, have sent well-wishes to Lil Nas X. Henson commented “Get well baby,” while many others expressed their support and concern for his health.
Some commenters believe that Lil Nas X might be experiencing Bell’s palsy, a condition that causes temporary muscle weakness on one side of the face.
