Our Favorite Instagram Pics that Show Why Lil Nas X is Our Dreamboy

Andrea Marks Joseph READ TIME: 6 MIN.



This is one of his excited 'Dreamboy era incoming' announcements, where the young star pulled his car over on the road somewhere industrial-looking with a glorious sunset behind him. Lil Nas X's muscles look so defined that his abs blend with the superhuman futurist aesthetic of his custom helmet and totally convey the sexy, self-assured vibe he's been teasing for the album.


Lil Nas X captioned this post "Thirst trap on fuhhhk it thirst trap on main" and then casually dropped a series of mirror selfies wearing only grey briefs and a cheeky expression on his face; First pouting, then playfully posing with his tongue, teasing us, and finally, a selfie with the addition of a glitter face mask. No one's doing it like him!



As part of his "Dreamboy" rollout, we got this can't-look-away sexy car makeout album art for Lil Nas X's next single "Need Dat Boy." The boy in question in this steamy picture is out R&B musician and model Destin Conrad, who confirmed he was dating another man (as in, not Lil Nas X, no matter how hot they look together) at the time, and that this was just a job he was booked for, has been out and proud about being a new face of queer art and loves expressing all that being gay online and in the public eye means to him. We love that for him, just as much as we love how sizzling hot this photo is. We, too, need that boy! Both of them!

When the "Light Again" music video dropped, we got this picture of Lil Nas X looking radiant in a cabin's bathroom, which was one of the music video locations. His bleached blonde hair stands out, while his muscular arms are glowing and the silver mesh tanktop he's wearing sparkles in the light –all of this conspiring to make him look almost supernaturally beautiful, just as they do when he wears this outfit in the music video. In the video, Lil Nas X throws a wild house party that turns into a wilder warehouse party, with people having all kinds of hot fun; being wild, and free, and so thrilled to be partying with him.
