Lil Nas X has shared an update after he recently suffered partial paralysis in his face.
The rapper was taken to hospital earlier this week and at the time took to social media, uploading a video of himself in a gown saying he'd lost "lost control" of the right side of his face.
Now in a new update on his Instragram Stories, he revealed that he has regained some movement in the right side of his face, specifically the lower half.
Filming himself chewing a piece of gum for medicinal purposes he explained: "I've been chewing a lot so I can get this muscle stronger." Pointing to his mouth he said, "It's much better!"
While Nas noted his left eye still "needs to play catch-up", he seemed confident about his improvement overall.
"I can give a genuine smile, so that's good!" he shared.
Other musicians who have suffered from temporary facial paralysis include Justin Bieber, who revealed in 2022 that he had an episode that rendered him partially paralysed in the right side of his face for some time. He has since made a full recovery.
Lil Nas X released his Days Before Dreamboy EP last month. He launched the campaign late last year with his single Light Again.
