American rapper Lil Uzi Vert has caused quite a stir online with their new alter ego ‘Leslie’ during their recent trip to Thailand. The artist is currently in the country to perform at 2023 Rolling Loud Thailand. The rapper has been giving fans a glimpse of their trip through their Instagram account. The series of images and videos posted by Lil Uzi Vert have sparked some interesting reactions on social media.
One particular video, which shows Lil Uzi Vert eating a fried cockroach, has gone viral. In the clip, the rapper can be seen trying to power through breaking down the insect with their teeth while trying to keep a straight face. Eventually, Lil Uzi Vert appears to gag and it’s unclear whether they were able to swallow the bug. A recent video also shows the rapper going ‘bug shopping’ in a market as they try eating insects there.
