    I find it so funny that artists can do literally anything on stage but swearing!?! That crosses the line lmao
  • @noextrai
    I wish there was a superstar like him 20 years ago when I was growing up.
  • @alex_montoya
    He does the MJ's RTT choreo and then he drops the crown, as in "there's just one king". ❤️❤️❤️

    If I’m being honest, I’m pretty neutral when it comes to Lil Nas X. But as a Michael Jackson fan, when he started doing the Remember the Time bit, I just lost it. Amazing performance.
  • @faust4079
    the way the lyrics are changed to make it seems "appropriate" is the funniest thing to me
  • @DavidLS1
    "I'm a kid and after seeing this, I've decided to be gay" said no kid ever.
  • @harshnotes
    This is why they didn’t nominate him this year. Set the stage on fire. It made people uncomfortable how great of a performance this was.
  • For better or for worse, level of talent or not, you have to at least recognize how this is groundbreaking because of how many lives this one man will most likely save due to him being brave enough to be who he is. Trust me, that more than anything is why he deserves all the attention he is getting.
  • @WaveManMike
    Watching this on TV with my family was awkward to say the least 😂
  • @Ben-ey2rl
    Man is so nervous but you can hear him get more comfortable as it goes on
  • @leona5167
    I absolutely love it when he does Michael Jackson Remember the Time. I think I hear someone in the crowd shouting "Michael Jackson". ahhhhh, this is sooo goooood
  • @BlackGothRose
    Ok but can we talk about that Michael Jackson Tribute?! Literally GOLDEN✨
  • People really want me to believe that a kiss between 2 guys is the most "inappropriate" thing made in a stage 🤨
  • @latasha6100
    Coming out the closet really did something for lil nas x and his music and his confidence...I'm hear for it
  • @alex_montoya
    Also, about Michael's 'purity'... Few here seem to remember that Michael kisses Iman in the 'Remember the Time' video. Lil Nas probably is also referencing it with his kiss.
  • Yes that kiss was dead sexy, but I'm going to take a moment to appreciate those background dancers. Like, holy crap you guys should all be very proud of yourselves!!!!!
  • @green_gacha4617
    I don’t know but I find it so funny when artists are not allowed to swear in live tv 💀✋
  • OMG my stomach dropped when he did the "remember the time" homage. BRILLIANT
