Lil Nas X Brings Big Peacock Energy To VMAs With Massive Feather Look

Lil Nas X sported a hair-raising, peacock-like look on the MTV Video Music Awards black carpet Sunday.

The “That’s What I Want” singer, who has a history of ruffling critics’ feathers , spread his metaphorical wings before the award ceremony in a look from designer Harris Reed.

The feathery, expansive garb surrounded the shirtless rapper in a circular design that wrapped around him.
