Grammy-winning artist Lil Nas X has been hospitalized following an unexpected episode of facial paralysis, causing concern among his fanbase.
The “Montero” singer took to social media to share the news, stating, “Soooo lost control of the right side of my face.” The 25-year-old musician also posted a video showing noticeable difficulty moving that side of his face, leading to speculation that he might be experiencing Bell’s palsy—a condition that temporarily weakens or paralyzes facial muscles. While he has not confirmed any diagnosis, his fans have responded with an outpouring of love and support.
So far, representatives close to the star have not issued an official statement. However, despite the troubling symptoms, Lil Nas X appeared to maintain a positive attitude in his video. Medical experts suggest that sudden facial paralysis can often be caused by nerve inflammation or viral infections. Though generally not permanent, medical treatment is typically required for recovery.
The unexpected health issue has prompted fans to encourage the singer to slow down and prioritize his well-being. Considering his packed schedule and recent performances, many are hoping this is just a short-term issue.
Lil Nas X is currently under medical care, and further updates are expected as doctors evaluate his condition and recommend appropriate treatment.
