Lil Nas X’s sexuality has been a topic of discussion this week—and it seems he has provided his haters some more fodder.

When a stan account tweeted a clip of Saweetie revealing that her guy celebrity crush is Lil Nas, the rapper responded, “goodbye lgbt community, we had a great run.”

In the video, Saweetie was asked by E! News who she’s crushing on, saying that Lil Nas is “so fine” to her. “He look better than me,” she added before laughing and saying, “I be like, ‘What is your skin regimen?’”

Earlier this week, fans were side-eyeing Saweetie after they noticed that she liked a tweet that was questioning Lil Nas’ sexuality. “I feel like he’s not really gay or not really that feminine it’s so forced,” the tweet said, alongside footage from his Lollapalooza Chile performance.

Saweetie responded, saying, “he was lookin fine af that’s why I liked the video I didn’t see the shadiness …. *unlikes*.” Lil Nas replied to her compliment with two blue heart emojis.

Lil Nas also clapped back at the troll, writing, “oh no guys it’s the estrogen expert.”
