Yungblud tips the hat to Lady Gaga and Florence Pugh
Yungblud has hailed Lady Gaga a "beautiful mind with a limitless imagination". The 27-year-old rocker is one of the 'Born This Way' hitmaker's Little Monsters and would love to be in the room every time she makes a creative decision. He told Rolling Stone: 'I would love to be a fly on the wall every time Gaga walks up to her team and goes, 'Right, this is what we're doing next.' 'She's a beautiful mind and a limitless imagination, you can tell. She's just herself, isn't she?' The 'Fleabag' star went on to compare Gaga, 39, to 'Thunderbolts' actress Florence Pugh, 29, who features in his new music video for his track 'Zombie'. He told the publication: 'Florence Pugh, in my opinion, is one of the most exciting British artists in a long time. 'I think she has this individuality that is not adherent to anyone else. She is completely legit and individual within her own style in her own time.' In the promo, Florence plays an exhausted health worker on the brink. He added: 'The song is so deep, so emotional, but so fundamentally British. 'I was like mind blown watching her on set. And she's just a legend. You can tell, man. She's just sat in a pub on a Sunday with a pint of Guinness, just talking s***.' It's the third track to be taken from the pop rocker's upcoming album, 'Idols', following 'Hello Heaven, Hello' and 'Lovesick Lullaby'. Yungblud said in a statement about 'Zombie': 'The song was written initially about my grandmother going through serious injury and trauma, leading her to become a different person to who she was before. It's about the feeling of deterioration and ugliness; shutting out the world and the people we love out of the fear of becoming a burden or an embarrassment. 'We all want someone or something to comfort us no matter how we are right now or who we become in the future. But it's f****** scary.'
