A federal judge ordered pop star Lil Nas X’s “Satan Shoes” to cease being sold, siding with Nike after it filed a lawsuit against the design company MSCHF Product Studio, which Nike says customized the Air Max 97 shoes without permission.
The “Old Town Road” singer caused chaos last week following the unveiling of his limited edition satanic-theme shoes, which are said to contain a drop of human blood. The initial unveil caused confusion and uproar from fans who thought the shoe was made in collaboration with Nike, which the company ultimately denied. Nike followed up with a lawsuit on Monday against MSCH Product Studio, contending it customized the Nike Air Max 97 without the company’s “approval or authorization” and adding that the move would ultimately cause “confusion and dilution.”

Fans of musician FKA twigs saw something familiar after watching the new music video for “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” when it debuted Friday.
The video for pop star Lil Nas X’s latest single features, among other things, a pair of thigh-high leather boots; the singer-rapper chained in a gladiator-esque arena with captors also played by him; and, most infamously, a 30-second lap dance on Satan.
While that satanic cameo drew the most attention from fans and critics, it was another meme-worthy motif that had some viewers accusing the musician who shot to stardom with his 2019 runaway hit, “Old Town Road” of copying twigs’ ideas.
