Watch: Yungblud recruits Florence Pugh to star in 'Zombie' music video
May 30 (UPI) -- Thunderbolts actress Florence Pugh stars in Yungblud's music video for his new song "Zombie." In the video, which arrived Friday, Pugh portrays a nurse who experiences the full breadth of human emotion while caring for various patients. Pugh's character serves coffee, cries in the break room, talks to a woman undergoing chemo treatment and screams privately. As the song continues, Pugh appears with angel wings. Yungblud called the song "a love letter to nurses." The video struck a chord with healthcare workers who remarked on the song's resonance in the comments. "Ugly crying by how beautiful this was," one commenter wrote. "I'm so proud of you and what we made," Pugh wrote. "Well done babe." The song will appear on Yungblud's album Idols, which will be released in two parts, with the first arriving June 20. "Our most ambitious adventure yet," he wrote in a post promoting the album. Part 1 will also include the previously released tracks "Hello Heaven, Hello" and "Lovesick Lullaby." Tickets for his Idols tour, which kicks off in August, are on sale now.

Yungblud says he's 'calmer than ever' after confronting his demons
EXCLUSIVE: The singer, 27, is coming out fighting with his new music - and he's not shying away from the hard topics to climb the charts either Yungblud is coming out fighting with his new music. He's confronted his demons, taken up boxing and is battling against toxic masculinity. And what he delivers with album Idols really packs a punch. 'I really had to face myself… figure it out and face it,' he tells. And Yungblud, 27, reckons he has really grown in the process. 'I would use food and alcohol to distract myself and push things down,' he says. 'The album is a mirror to that. I have singing lessons. I don't drink as much and I've been getting better at sleeping. I've been getting better at being able to navigate this whole thing better – that's been epic.' Idols is Yungblud's fourth studio release, the first coming out in 2018. He filmed the music video for single Hello Heaven shirtless during a -14C blizzard in Bulgaria – and is enjoying flashing the flesh. Having previously opened up about his battle with body dysmorphia, the Doncaster rocker – real name Dominic Harrison – tells how he has now 'cut out people that were not good' for him, and that posing topless for his album promo is a 'kickback against those people'. Yungblud is not shying away from hard topics to climb the charts either. He says: 'Me and my friends were talking about sexuality. It was what young people were talking about but it wasn't being represented in music at all. It was kind of like, 'Oh, don't sing about that. It's too political to go on Radio One.' 'I was like, 'This is what people want to hear, this is what I want to say, this is what I want to sing about'.' After his last album, Yungblud opened up about the fear of being predictable – but that is one thing you can't accuse him of with this record. 'People knew exactly what I would sing, wear and say,' he says. 'I was repeating myself and I was starting to not tell the truth. 'The past two years has been a real reset for me to provide a new outlet and a new journey. I feel calmer than I've ever felt because it's truly written. If it's not real, people can smell it'. Describing the creative process, he said: 'It's like crying or having an orgasm… it just comes out of you without f***ing responsibility or consequence'. And Yungblud, who recently took up boxing with a trainer in LA, wants to be a positive role model for other men. Previously addressing the issue on Jamie Laing's podcast Great Company, and referencing hit Netflix series Adolescence, he says: 'What I see are these psychos like Andrew Tate and this toxically poisonous stuff that young men are consuming. 'I really feel like there needs to be people who embrace masculinity and embrace this element of physical activity, but also do it like me – from a place of law, respect and equality. 'I want to portray that it's cool to embrace masculinity in a new way that highlights emotions but respects that there isn't just this kind of old school idea that's being peddled.' Idols is out on June 20 and Yungblud's world tour starts in LA on August 23. Bludfest in Milton Keynes on June 21 is his only UK date this year.

Yungblud delights fan, 4, as they recreate scene from Lovesick Lullaby music video
The world-famous singer-songwriter, whose real name is Dominic Richard Harrison, showed up at Tottenham Court Road to recreate a scene from his recent video with fans Singer Yungblud recreated a scene from his new video for latest track Lovesick Lullaby, with the help of what could be his youngest fan. The star enlisted the help of four-year-old Hope and her family to reenact the clip in a heartwarming video. The 27-year-old Doncaster native is set to take over the National Bowl in Milton Keynes in June for the first of four massive summer gigs. But the world-famous artist stunned fans when he showed up at Tottenham Court Rd this afternoon, inviting them to act out one of the scenes from his latest video where he's sat on a couch. Hope's mother, from Portsmouth, explained: "I'm a huge fan of Yungblud's music. I play it so much around the house that the kids have gotten into it too!" She added: "Hope's favourite song is 'Anarchist'!" Yungblud's latest release saw him visit various iconic spots in London for the video, including Primrose Hill, Regents Park and Camden's infamous boozer the Hawley Arms. The track is the first released after the "industry disruptor dropped his first single for a year, Hello Heaven, Hello. The video for the single was shot in Bulgaria, and featured the star riding a stallion through a winter scene. As fans waited for the video to become available, the YouTube page was flooded with comments of excitement from his adoring fan base. User Kate Angel wrote: "Woman in Rock Music Here! Excited for your new phase Yungblud! Thank you for inspiring me Dom. Much Love!" referring to the songwriter's real name, Dominic Richard Harrison. Another fan added that they couldn't "believe in 3 hours we'll be listening to the song!!!!" Many more posted about how they were counting down the minutes in the comment section. Yungblud's last music video idea came from a New Year's Eve party at a friends where he was looking through his host's record collection at 2am. The singer became transfixed on the iconic Led Zeppelin song, The Song Remains the Same. The video for the 1973 track shows Led Zep's lead singer Robert Plant riding a horse through a stunning landscape. The singer evidently took inspiration and included a striking clip of him on snow-laden mountains with a huge black stallion behind him. His red lips, eyeliner and tattoos stood out against the white background. The Lowlife singer recalled a conversation with his video director where he described his vision for the piece. He said: "I wanna be on a horse in the Bulgarian mountains, then I wanna grow wings and fly off it, then I wanna flashback, rewind time and end up on a hillside with a cross". Yungblood was then asked about the practicalities of his idea, with the director asking him: "Do you know how to ride a horse?" The answer was 'no', with Yungblud then going on to have a week's worth of lessons where he was stood in a minus 14 degree blizzard on the mountains of Bulgaria. He said he was introduced to Harry the Horse, adding that the animal was "beautiful to ride. It was epic." The star has performed alongside the likes of Avril Lavigne and Halsey, who he dated for a year from the end of 2018.
