Lil Nas X All Smiles as He Arrives for Battery Hearing at L.A. Courthouse

Lil Nas X looks much better months after he was arrested while wandering through Los Angeles naked last year … all smiles while walking into a courthouse Thursday.

The rapper strode up to the court in a light gray suit and blue tie … looking very positive as he mounted the steps.

Lil Nas’ attorney Christy O’Connor walked alongside him to the hearing … about the battery of a peace officer charge he’s facing.

Remember … Lil Nas X was arrested for the offense back in August and booked into the Van Nuys jail.

Law enforcement sources told us Lil Nas X stripped down naked and lunged at an officer. The rapper was taken to the hospital for a possible drug overdose.

LNX was later charged with four felonies — to which he pled not guilty. He also entered an inpatient treatment facility out-of-state after the arrest.
