UPDATE: Lil Nas X is keeping a low profile in jail following his arrest early on Thursday, October 12, 2023. Sources confirm the rapper has been on his best behavior since arriving at the Van Nuys Jail, avoiding any theatrics or performances for his fellow inmates.
Law enforcement officials report that there have been no issues with Lil Nas since his incarceration. The “Old Town Road” artist, who was taken into custody after a possible overdose, is expected to remain in detention until his court appearance on Monday, October 16, 2023, when his bail will be set.
In a pre-arraignment jail with limited activities, Lil Nas X is reportedly passing the time by watching local television and accessing available games like checkers and board games. He is also receiving three meals a day, with options including chicken and bean burritos, fruit, and cereal.
Despite the circumstances, his choice to maintain a low profile may be a strategy to navigate this challenging time. TMZ reports that the jail is primarily a brief-stay facility, which means most inmates are there for a few days at most.
On the day of his arrest, Lil Nas was first transported to a hospital for treatment before being taken to jail. He faces serious charges, including allegedly charging a police officer and an incident involving nudity.
As the court date approaches, fans and observers are eager to see how this situation unfolds. Will Lil Nas X’s calm demeanor behind bars influence his case? Stay tuned for the latest updates as they develop.
