Lil Nas X is known for his sense of humor, and he recently proved that when he took a joke from Dave Chappelle in stride. In his latest Netflix comedy special, Dreamer, Chappelle made a joke at the expense of the "Montero" hitmaker after sharing a story about meeting him. Chappelle recalled that Lil Nas X wanted him to be involved in the music video, and he compared the situation to when students shared their dream jobs when they were younger.
"‘What do you want to be when you grow up, Lil Nas X?’ That n—- stood up in front of the whole class," Chappelle said. "‘I want to be the gayest n—- that ever lived. I want to do a music video, slide down a stripper pole, all the way to the depths of hell, and suck the devil’s d— at 10 o’ clock on BET while all the kids are awake and can see me.’ Shockingly, that was the only dream that worked out."
On Wednesday, Jan. 3, Lil Nas X responded to a clip of the joke that was shared on X, formerly known as Twitter. He wrote, "Yall gotta let call me by your name go, me and the devil broke up 3 years ago. Yall acting like children of divorce." Lil Nas X has certainly faced his fair share of criticism for the visuals of his single, "Montero". This included a music video in which he slides down a stripper pole to hell, and a pair of "Satan" Nikes that contained a bronze pentagram, an inverted cross, and a drop of real human blood.
Leave it to Dave Chappelle to find the humor in even the strangest of moments. Lil Nas X showed that he can take a joke and even throw one back at the comedian, and his fans were here for it. With his trademark wit and sarcasm, he's once again proving why he's on top of the charts.
