Lil Nas X is single again. The 22-year-old confirmed his relationship status in a recent interview with Andy Cohen on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live.

During the conversation, Lil Nas X spoke about his dating life. “It sounds like from what I’m reading, that you have found somebody, are you, are you happy? Is there anything you can tell me about it?” Andy asked. “Where did you read that?” Lil Nas X responded.

“I heard you have a boyfriend. I heard you’re seeing somebody,” Andy said. “I was seeing someone. Um, I kind of decided I didn’t want to anymore,” Lil Nas X said.

“All right. Okay. Well, I have to, I have to, uh, assume that there are thousands of people applying for the job of a Lil Nas X’s boyfriend,” Andy then said.

“There are definitely a couple of people for sure. A couple of people out there…I don’t want to ruin anybody’s, uh, perception of [“That’s What I Want”], but I don’t think I want any guy right now. Maybe I’m floating around right now. I just want to work on music and every now and then, you know, maybe I’ll kiss a guy, every blue moon, you know.”

Lil Nas didn’t explain the reason why he called it quits with his boyfriend, but this arrives only two months after he revealed that he had found “someone special.”

He said in an August interview with Variety, “I’ve had some good boyfriends and some bad ones. A lot of them were emotionally unavailable or had a lot of insecurity and whatnot.” He gushed about his then-boyfriend at the time, “I’ve found someone special now. I think this is the one. I can’t explain it – it’s just a feeling.”
