Lil Nas X Was Hacked!

Lil Nas X Reacts to Being Hacked

On Twitter early Thursday afternoon, Lil Nas X reacted to his hacking by tweeting, “funny enough this looks like something I would post, so my fans probably didn’t know the difference”. For context, the hackers of Lil Nas X posted a meme to his YouTube channel.

A History of Being Hacked:

Interestingly, this isn’t Lil Nas X’s first rodeo with being hacked either. Earlier this year, in June, Lil Nas X’s Facebook was hacked, with the hacker posting an anti-LGBTQ post. In the post, which was written by the hackers to impersonate Lil Nas X, the hackers attempted to frame the rapper as not really being gay. Since then, Lil Nas X has responded to that hacking attempt as well, also joking it off in the process.

As of now, the rapper nor his label have commented further on the hacking. Though, it appears that they are working on recovering his YouTube channel now.
