The star won ‘Video of the Year’ for his hit ‘MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name)’. Tranter spoke about how she wished to project the very small part of the earth she and her dancers inhabit – the island of Malta. Lil Nas X won the top prize at the MTV Video Music Awards and gave a tongue-in-cheek thank you to the gay agenda. The concept reaches towards the myth of Gaia as divine personification of the earth and matriarch of all things in existence. Speaking about the piece, choreographer Abela Tranter stated that the piece arrives at the strangest of times, with second lockdown imposing its ‘manic panic restrictions.’ The performing bodies sway and grasp the attention of the watcher as Maltese sea waves crash onto the beach and the dancers make their way around iconic rubble walls. In partnership with Dancin’ Oxford, Oxford International Links, Mandala Theatre and Ashtar THeatre’s International Digital and Live Festival for the Global Dance Film Project, the mesmerising piece was performed by Contact Dance Company and choreographed by Francesca Abela Tranter. Stunning locations feature in the latest dance piece called ‘Gaia – Gaian Thinking Is Not A Luxury’, commissioned by the Oxford Festival of the Arts (OFA). i just simply don’t believe me in a fictional prison with twerking men could lead to a heterosexual man deciding to suck dick. He slammed back at critics stating that its time to give the rap industry a different voice and that such accusations show how hatred of members of the LGBTIQ+ community still permeates the industry. Writing on Twitter, he stated that ‘all jokes aside the idea of a gay agenda doesn’t make any sense.’ He went on to say that he doesn’t believe a fictional prison with twerking men could turn a heterosexual man into a homosexual. Having come out in 2019, Montero did not shy away from expressing his sexuality in his music videos. However, a rather vocal minority slammed the video for pushing what they deemed to be ‘gay agenda’.

The video, which features Montero Lamar Hill and fellow artist Jack Harlow in prison alongside several naked male back-up dancers, was very well received by the 22-year-old’s fans. Lil Nas X dropped a new music video for his latest song ‘Industry Baby’, one upping his own ‘Montero (Call Me By Your Name)’ spectacle despite several criticisms.
