Lil Nas X sat down with Kevin Hart and Maverick Carter on HBO series The Shop, and in a first clip shared by the network, the viral performer's coming-out was the topic of conversation. Hart, who infamously quit his gig hosting The Oscars instead of apologizing when past homophobic statements resurfaced, pressured Lil Nas X into explaining his thought process behind coming out, asking what the big deal was about the statement.
Lil Nas X also brought up the importance of him coming out when he was riding on the top of the charts."Any other time, I'm doing this [coming out] for attention, in my eyes," he says."But if you're doing this on the top, you know it's for real. It's showing it doesn't really matter." Many people on Twitter pointed to the power of how Lil Nas X quieted Hart, taking"the steam out of" him with a single line."Kevin Hart's homophobia isn't innocuous," Joel D. Anderson wrote,"that he remains in good standing with so many powerful people is telling about what people are willing to accept—and it's a signal to the LGBTQ community."
