'It was one of the first gay films that I had watched,' Lil Nas X, whose real name is Montero, said in a video as part of Genius' 'Verified' YouTube series.
Lil Nas X has revealed the meaning behind the lyrics for 'Montero (Call Me By Your Name)' - and he said the hit song, released Friday, is only partially inspired by the 2017 film of the same name starring Armie Hammer and Timothée Chalamet.
