Lil Nas X’S Wild La Night: Hospitalized And Arrested After Studio City Drama

Chaos on Ventura Boulevard: Lil Nas X’s Shocking Incident

Yo, LA’s got some fresh tea, and it’s straight outta Studio City! Early Thursday morning, around 5:50 a.m., Lil Nas X - real name Montero Lamar Hill - had a wild moment on Ventura Boulevard, a bustling strip known for its trendy vibes and late-night hangs (for those not in the 818, it’s a main artery through the San Fernando Valley). Reports say the ‘Old Town Road’ hitmaker was spotted walking the street in nothing but cowboy boots and underwear, causing a scene that had passersby whipping out their phones.

Things took a sharp turn when the LAPD rolled up after getting a call about a nude man in public. According to the cops, Lil Nas X didn’t just stand there - he allegedly charged at the officers, turning a weird morning into a full-blown incident. The LAPD had to take him into custody, but not before transporting him to a local hospital for what they suspect might’ve been an overdose.

Details of the Arrest: Battery on an Officer?

The LAPD dropped a statement to HuffPost, laying out the gritty details: ‘This morning, officers responded to the 11000 block of Ventura Bl for a nude man walking in the street. Upon arrival, the suspect charged at officers and was taken into custody.’ They added that he was arrested for battery on a police officer after a law enforcement source told NBC News that Hill threw two punches at an officer’s face. Talk about a rough way to start the day!

By Thursday afternoon, online booking records showed Hill was being held at Valley Jail in Van Nuys - another Valley spot not far from where it all went down. TMZ got their hands on some bystander footage, showing Lil Nas X strutting his stuff on Ventura, posing like he’s on a Hollywood red carpet, and even singing while inviting the person recording to a party. It’s pure LA chaos with a side of cowboy flair.

Behind the Scenes: Lil Nas X’s Struggles and Stardom

This isn’t just a one-off crazy moment for the star who blew up with ‘Old Town Road’ back in 2019. Lil Nas X has been open about the rollercoaster of fame, especially as a young artist navigating the SoCal spotlight. From stirring up controversy with his 2021 banger ‘MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)’ - you know, the one with the devil lap dance that had conservatives clutching their pearls - to personal battles, he’s been through it.

“Fame looks all glitzy from the outside, but inside, it’s the same old mess - just with more eyes on you,” Lil Nas X once told Variety back in 2020.

He’s talked about heavy stuff like losing his grandmother in 2018, dealing with anxiety, and even self-medicating with weed to cope. Add in some cryptic Instagram wipes and random posts leading up to this incident, and it’s clear there’s more to the story than just a wild night in Studio City.

What’s Next for Lil Nas X?

As of now, Hill’s legal team ain’t spilling any tea - they declined to comment when HuffPost reached out. Fans across LA and beyond are buzzing, wondering what led to this Ventura Boulevard meltdown and what it means for the artist who’s been a game-changer in music and culture. Is this a cry for help, or just a bad night in the City of Angels?
