Mark Ronson says he was rushed to hospital after injuring himself during set

Independent03-04-2025

Mark Ronson has said he had to be rushed to hospital after injuring himself during a gig.
The DJ and producer, 49, posted a photo from his hospital bed and gave fans an update on his condition.
'That time the house PA was so bad that I tried to one-hand turn the stage monitor towards the crowd mid-mix to give them some extra juice,' the 'Uptown Funk' producer said. 'Turns out they weigh more than I thought…Two popped bicep tendons and one finished gig later, here we are, baby! #tornthisway,'
The house PA is the speaker equipment present at the club or venue where the artist is performing, and the stage monitor refers to a speaker system facing the DJ or performer that allows them to hear the music mix over the sound of the crowd.
Drew Elliot, America's Next Top Model consultant and global creative director of MAC Cosmetics, commented on Ronson's post, writing: 'Always putting the audience first. Feel better.'
Interior Design Masters host Alan Carr wrote: 'Oh no!! Get well soon - love the hashtag though,' referring to Ronson's play on Lady Gaga hit 'Born This Way'.
Last week, Ronson announced his memoirs, Night People: How to Be a DJ in '90s New York City, and performed a five-hour set in New York to promote it.
'It chronicles three of my great loves: the art of DJing with all its emotional highs and lows, the electric energy of New York after dark, and the wild, wonderful clubland characters who became my second family,' the multiple Grammy winner wrote on Instagram, describing his memoirs.
'This book is my love letter to a vanished era that shaped not just my career but my identity — a time when finding my craft put me on the path to finding myself.'
Last week, Ronson shared another post detailing the toll that performing took on him. 'Pulled my camo record bags out of storage and filled them with 300 dusty ass records to play my first vinyl sets in 19 (?) years…I woke up today with my hands shredded, my ears shot, my lower back stiff as concrete, and FULLY BACK IN LOVE WITH DJING AGAIN. I f***ing love you New York.'
The Oscar winner and his wife, Grace Gummer, recently confirmed they were expecting their second child. In March 2023, Ronson's sister Annabelle Dexter-Jones had confirmed the arrival of the couple's first child, a baby girl.
Gummer 'just had the baby. She's two and a half months now', Dexter-Jones told People at the time. 'She's stunning.'
The couple tied the knot in an intimate backyard ceremony in August 2021. The following month, Ronson shared the wedding news with fans in a heartfelt black-and-white social media post celebrating his 45th birthday.
'To my truest love,' he captioned the image of the smiling newlyweds. 'Out of nowhere, you made 45 hands down the greatest year of my life. And I'm sure it took me 45 years to become the man worthy of your love.'
'I hope I spend every one of these birthdays by your side till my last day. And beyond. Forever and ever yours,' he said, cheekily confirming the nuptials with: '(And yes, we got married).'

Pop star Dua Lipa confirms engagement to British actor Callum Turner

The Grammy award-winning artist, known for her hit songs New Rules, One Kiss and Houdini, has reportedly been dating the actor since January 2024. The 29-year old singer is currently performing around the world for her Radical Optimism tour, with upcoming performances at London's Wembley Stadium and Madison Square Garden in New York. A post shared by DUA LIPA (@dualipa) Fronting the July issue of British Vogue, she told the magazine: 'Yeah we're engaged. It's very exciting. '(I) never really understood the weight of it. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don't know, be best friends forever — it's a really special feeling.' Turner, 35, is best known for starring in the hit series Masters Of The Air alongside US actor Austin Butler, as well as playing Frank Churchill in 2020's Emma and Joe Rantz, the american rower, in The Boys In The Boat. The singer added that she is 'obsessed' with the custom ring Turner had made for her and that the couple do not have plans for the wedding yet. She said: 'I want to finish my tour, Callum's shooting, so we're just enjoying this period. I've never been someone who's really thought about a wedding, or dreamed about what kind of bride I would be. All of a sudden, I'm like: 'Oh, what would I wear?'' 'I'd love to have kids one day. But it's like the constant question of when would there ever be a good time — how it would fit in with my job and how it would work if I went on tour, and how much time out I'd have to take. 'I think it's just one of those things that's going to happen when it happens. I love kids, but I think there's so much more to raising a child than just loving children.' A post shared by British Vogue (@britishvogue) Months away from being 30, the singer added that she is the most confident she has ever felt. She said: 'I turn 30 in August and I've been thinking about it a lot, because your 20s are just so tumultuous in the way you think about yourself and your body. And I don't know, now I feel like I've come to a place — I've become better at taking care of myself and working out and dancing. 'I feel the most confident I've ever felt. I feel very empowered and strong in my body. I feel good when I'm sharing my energy with people on stage. 'There's just so much of that that makes me really proud of my body and the way it holds me.' The English-Albanian singer rose to fame with her 2016 hit Be The One followed by her 2017 break-up anthem, New Rules. Since then she has won several Brit Awards and three Grammys and headlined Glastonbury Festival last year shortly after the release of her third studio album Radical Optimism which hit number one on the UK albums chart. Her 2020 Future Nostalgia album also reached number one while her debut self-titled album, Dua Lipa, reached number three. She is the youngest person to feature on this year's Sunday Times 40 Under 40 Rich List, making her one of the wealthiest musicians in the UK. The singer was recently named the most played artist across radio, TV and public places in the UK for a second time by music licensing company Phonographic Performance Limited (PPL). See the full feature in the July issue of British Vogue, available via digital download and on newsstands from June 17.
