Lil Nas X just made an incredible return to the red carpet at the 2023 Met Gala.
Let's take it back to 2021, where the pop superstar showed up in a gold coat...
Before revealing a whole-ass gold-plated coat of armor underneath.
Nas sat last year's Met Gala out, but for this year's festivities, he returned with a bang — covered head-to-toe in silver body paint, crystals, and pearls, with a face mask to match.
He also wore a silver thong — and that's it. No, really.
No, really.
Get a load of those platform heels, too.
Obviously, an incredible look — and when he made it past the red carpet, Nas made sure to take some snaps with some famous friends inside.
