Does Lil Nas X have a new man?
Previously, Lil Nas X was connected to dancer Yai Ariza, but by September of 2021, the two had broken up with Nas saying "I was seeing someone, I kind of decided I don't want to anymore."
Lil Nas X was recently spotted walking with and kissing musician Cody Jon in Los Angeles, but who is Jon and are the two dating? Here's what we know!
Where were Lil Nas X and Cody Jon spotted?
Lil Nas X and Cody Jon were spotted walking around Studio City in Los Angeles doing some shopping. It appeared to photographers that the two were playing around and having a good time, with Lil Nas X leaning in to kiss Jon on the cheek at one moment.
Who is Cody Jon?
According to his biography at Lunatic Entertainment, "few artists embody generational dysmorphia in the same way Cody Jon does. Growing up through the 2010s, raised on music of the 80s, inspired by the hits of the 90s and the visual aesthetic of the 2000s, Cody Jon is a temporal mish-mash. His songs are unapologetically hook-heavy showing a healthy respect for the boy bands of the 90s but self-produced with the zaniness of a kid who’s spent too long in his own bedroom in the microclimate of deep suburbia."
Jon grew up in Sydney, Australia. He began dancing as a child and starting singing when he was just 5.
He has 384,000 followers on TikTok, 97,000 Instagram followers, 95,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, and three songs with over two million streams.
How long have Lil Nas X and Cody Jon known each other?
We don't know exactly how long the two have known each other or how long they've been close, but what we do know is that the two recently attended an Adele concert together.
Earlier in November, a video was posted showing Lil Nas X and Jon in the front row of an Adele concert, interacting with the singer. (Was this another date?)
Is this a real relationship?
So, is this really love blossoming? Or will it turn out to be another marketing stunt or troll by Lil Nas X, one of the most legendary trolls of his age? Maybe Nas and Jon have a song coming out soon. Or maybe they really are falling in love. Only time will tell!
