Lil Nas X has left many shocked when he revealed that he had to turn down an irresistible offer in order to finish his music.

"I was actually going to do ‘Euphoria,’ but I didn’t want to take time away from finishing my album. I definitely want to get into acting, but I feel I have to give it my all, and I want to focus on music for right now. I want my first movie to be amazing."
