Lil Nas X Hospitalized After Early-Morning Incident in L.A.

Los Angeles — A late-night scene in Studio City turned heads early Thursday morning when a well-known pop star was spotted wandering down a major L.A. street nearly naked—clad only in underwear and cowboy boots—and was subsequently rushed to the hospital under concerning circumstances.
Unsettling Scene on Ventura Boulevard
According to video obtained by TMZ, a man presumed to be the singer was seen wandering aimlessly down Ventura Boulevard around 4 a.m., dressed in nothing but his underwear and a pair of cowboy boots. At one point, he even placed an orange traffic cone on his head while speaking incoherently to the camera, claiming he was “heading to a party”.

Community and Law Enforcement React
Concerned locals contacted police, reporting what appeared to be signs of an overdose. When officers arrived, the individual was still wandering in the road and reportedly charged at them. He was restrained, cuffed, and paramedics were called to transport him to a nearby hospital.
At the time of reporting, he remained hospitalized, and it's unclear if any charges will follow. Representatives for the artist have not yet responded to inquiries.
Context & Previous Health Matters
While this incident is still developing, it’s worth recalling that earlier this year—in April—fans were alarmed after the same artist shared a hospital video revealing partial paralysis of the right side of his face. In the clip, he attempted to smile but could not fully move that side of his features. Despite initial concern, he reassured followers he was okay, joking that he might “look funny for a little bit” and asking them to “shake ur ass for me instead” The cause was unspecified, though some outlets speculated it could have been Bell’s palsy, a condition known to cause temporary facial paralysis.
Final Thoughts
All signs indicate this early-morning episode marks a serious health scare—not a staged moment. The visuals of the incident and the concern from witnesses suggest this was more than a publicity stunt. Fans and onlookers are right to worry, and many are anxious for updates on his condition.
At this point, details remain thin. We'll keep watching for official word from his team and any updates on how he’s doing. Though wilder than anything seen before, if there’s one constant with this artist, it’s his resilience—and hopefully that’s what shines through next.
