Lil Nas X has been considered as a gay icon by his fans ever since he came out a few years back, but it appears that he's going to depart from the LGBTQIA+ community after getting a compliment from Saweetie; could this be true?

According to Complex, a Twitter user shared a video of the female rapper's interview with E! News where she was asked who her celebrity crush is.

The "Back to the Streets" singer didn't hesitate to respond and answer that she admired Lil Nas X, saying, "my celebrity guy crush is Lil Nas, he's so fine to me. He look better than me!"

After the short clip went viral, the "Industry Baby" rapper noticed it and react to the situation, joking that he will be leaving the LGBT community after a "good run."

In the caption, the musician wrote, "goodbye lgbt community, we had a great run," along with a heart emoji." The post received over 296,000 likes on the platform.

As of this writing, Saweetie, whose real name is Diamonté Quiava Valentin Harper, has not responded to the post.

Saweetie Called Out for Being Shady After Liking a Certain Tweet

The recent post comes a few days after Saweetie was called out by Lil Nas X's fans after liking a specific tweet that criticized the rapper for his "forced" femininity.

The female rapper responded to the issue by revealing the reason why she liked the post, saying she thought the "MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)" hitmaker was fine and didn't see the context of the post's negativity.

The rapper then responded by dropping two blue hearts emoji, seemingly letting her know that it wasn't a big deal.

The tweet in question was a post shared by a fan on the social media platform, showing the rapper's performance at the Lollapalooza in Chile.

In the caption, the user wrote, "I feel like he's not really gay or not really that feminine it's so forced." Many fans agreed with their sentiments as they filled the reply section with their own take, but there were also users who defended Lil Nas X.

The "Rodeo" hitmaker then responded by quote-retweeting the post, writing, "oh no guys it's the estrogen expert."

In other updates, Saweetie's highly-anticipated album has been delayed again and she noted that the reason behind it was because of her zodiac sign. The female rapper confirmed that the record will come out later this year.
