Conservative parents berated the popular children's group after they posed for a photo with the singer during a festival in Australia.

Conservatives were outraged after the popular children's group The Wiggles posed for a photo with singer Lil Nas X during a festival in Australia.

The Wiggles coyly "asked" their Instagram followers whether a "New collab [is] in the wind?" in a caption of a photograph showing them posing with Lil Nas X. Yhe rapper and fashion icon has been a favorite target for conservatives due to his stance as an openly LGBTQ+ Black musician with unapologetically liberal politics.


You can see The Wiggles post below.

News of the collaboration was teased for some time.

In April 2022, the Wiggles tweeted, "We're ready to wiggle with you!" in response to a post Lil Nax X made about wanting the group to "coheadline the tour with [him]."

But this doesn't mean the news was well received by everyone.

Conservatives have reserved special vitriol for the rapper since the release of his song and video for “Montero (Call Me By Your Name),” in which he gives a lap dance to the devil.

Many conservatives pushed back against the announcement.

The devil—or at least their idea of one—was on one conservative Twitter user's mind when they tweeted:

"Lil Nas X has put human blood into 666 pairs of his design for Nike shoes and is now planning to collaborate with The Wiggles."

You can see their post below.

The post quickly caught Lil Nas X's attention and he tweeted:

"What's the problem[?]'

His fans loved it of course and quickly came to his defense.



The news of Lil Nax X's collaboration with The Wiggles comes as he continues to build buzz for his next studio album.

The rapper has already released two songs, "Late to da Party" and "Down Soul Hoes," though not much else, only saying the album would be "something fun, something for the summertime, something for the girls to get ready and party to."

Jasmine Crockett Calls Out Trump's Hypocrisy By Pointing Out How Melania Got Her Visa

Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett pointed out President Donald Trump's hypocrisy on immigration considering how First Lady Melania Trump's pathway to citizenship was possible because she received an "Einstein visa," which is usually reserved for an individual with "some sort of significant achievement."

Speaking during a House Judiciary Committee hearing titled “Restoring Integrity and Security to the Visa Process,” Crockett noted that “the idea that Trump and my Republican colleagues want to restore integrity and security in the visa process is actually a joke," and harshly criticized the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and visa restrictions.

Fox Host Comes To Reporter's Defense After Pete Hegseth Berates Her At Pentagon Briefing

Fox News' chief political analyst Brit Hume came to the defense of Fox national security reporter Jennifer Griffin after their former colleague, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, criticized Griffin as the reporter "who misrepresents the most intentionally what the president says” in a Pentagon news conference.

Hegseth, a former Fox News anchor, had criticized media outlets—including his former network—for what he described as unpatriotic reporting. Hegseth took particular aim at early intelligence assessments suggesting that President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran may not have significantly crippled Iran’s nuclear capabilities.

Fox Host Slams Dem For Dropping An F-Bomb After Praising Trump For The Same Thing Just Minutes Earlier

Fox News host Emily Compagno was criticized after she praised Donald Trump's use of the "f-bomb" earlier this week before condemning Texas Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett's use of the same word—on the same episode of her show, no less.

Trump made headlines this week after admonishing Israel and Iran for violating a ceasefire agreement he'd announced on Truth Social. Although he claimed the ceasefire had been "agreed upon," Iran fired at least six missile barrages at Israel after it was supposed to take effect.
