Florence Pugh puts on a very emotional performance as she stars in Yungblud's latest music video as singer shares a sneak peek at new song Zombie
Florence Pugh put on a very emotional performance as she starred in Yungblud's latest music video for his new song Zombie. After sending fans wild on Wednesday as he confirmed the British actress, 29, would be featuring in the latest track, on Friday he shared a sneak peek at the video ahead of its release at 4pm. The Oppenheimer star can be seen in tears in the short clip as she screams before the shot cuts to a black screen reading 'Zombie'. Zombie is the third single from Yungblud's forthcoming album, Idols which is set for release on June 20. Speaking about the track, Yungblud- real name Dominic Harrison- explained: '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. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. '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.' He added: '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***ing scary.' The song's powerful video matches its message, with Florence portraying a healthcare worker at her emotional brink, overwhelmed by grief and exhaustion. Fans were treated to a preview of the track at Yungblud's surprise London gig in March. The artist announced a last minute show at Scala, playing Zombie to a packed out room. On Wednesday Yungblud sent fans wild after he shared an image of a clapperboard with the Thuderbolts star's name on it alongside the caption 'Friday [two eye emojis] @florencepugh'. 'I'm so proud of you and what we made. Well done babe', Florence commentented. She also reshared his post on her own Instagram Story alongside the caption 'Very cool things to come'. Fans rushed to the comments to share their excitement, writing: '@florencepugh love it can't wait', '@florencepugh can't wait to see this music video', 'can't wait to see this! I just know it will be epic!!!!', '@florencepugh OMGGGG FLORENCE WHAT IS THIS IM SO EXCITED ❤️❤️' Yungblud first teased the news that a British actress was starring in his video at a playback for his new album last month. He said: 'We have got a massive f****** British actress in the video — it is going to be iconic. This song is called Zombie. 'It is a ballad and what I learned as a songwriter is trying to write about a specific event but not forcing you to feel what I feel when you hear it. 'To form your own experience, your own ideas, your own life. I remember when I was making this album, I am really close with Lewis [Capaldi] and he was like, 'Dom, just fing sing, man!'. 'I have always been shouting a lot and so I am singing on this song.' Fans rushed to the comments to share their excitement, writing: '@florencepugh love it can't wait' Yungblud recently revealed he believes he's finally found 'the love of his life' in Cher 's goddaughter - despite breaking off their relationship following a period of intense 'insecurity.' He had finally settled into a long-term relationship with Los Angeles-based singer and fashion designer Jesse Jo Stark after a string of failed romances, among them a short-lived fling with Halsey. But in a far-reaching interview with Paul C. Brunson's We Need To Talk podcast this week, he admitted that Jesse, 34, agreed to a temporary separation as he wrestled with the pressures of living life in the spotlight. Yungblud said: 'This year has been such a strange thing for me because it's the first time that probably the biggest love of my life, I've taken space from and I've asked for space. 'Last year I was really having problems with myself and it was all a me problem.' He added: 'Her name's Jesse Stark. She's probably the most incredible person I've ever met and she's my best friend and I feel so lucky to be in her orbit.' Jesse is the daughter of the founder and CEO of luxury goods brand Chrome Hearts, Richard Stark, and is goddaughter to pop veteran Cher (L-R Laurie Lynn Stark, Cher and Jesse in 2024) The Doncaster-born star admitted he maintains regular contact with Jesse, who is the daughter of the founder and CEO of luxury goods brand Chrome Hearts, Richard Stark, and is goddaughter to pop veteran Cher. Yungblud said: 'I got to talk this through with her and she understood and she needed a moment. 'We talk every Sunday and I mean ultimately I think in my life all roads lead to her because I love her. I never loved anything like I love her. 'I love her as everything. And I love her as if I'd love water. I need it. You know, and I think I'd never experience love like it because when you could be that honest with another human being, even in times when we're not technically together.' Despite ending the relationship, the singer insisted he was hopeful that he will start a family with Jesse once he has worked his way through the emotional issues that ultimately led to their separation. 'I think at this moment in time, I needed to build up a fundamental basis of a personality. I was a shell, so I didn't know what I could love,' he explained. 'I will love that girl until I die and if that ends up like we like I would love it for one day to have loads of kids with her and vibe out and do all the like whatever the fairy tale thing is but if that doesn't happen that doesn't happen.' Yungblud's relationship with Jesse followed a short-lived romance with fellow pop star Halsey, who he dated for several months in 2019 and admits entered his life as they were both establishing their music careers. He recalled: 'I was cool to her and it was that there were almost two things colliding. That's why I don't think we worked out. And it was epic. We weren't completing each other.'

I Didn't Expect Florence Pugh's Next Role To Be A Nurse In A Yungblud Music Video, But I'm So Here For The Sweet Reactions Its Getting From Healthcare Workers
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. As of late, Florence Pugh has become a blockbuster star, between her role as Yelena Belova in new Marvel movies, including the recent release of Thunderbolts* and being officially in the cast for Avengers: Doomsday, and she's also set to reprise her Dune role in Messiah the same weekend. So I wasn't expecting to see her as the star of a music video on a random Friday, but she proved she can make us cry in a role that last about four minutes, too. Yungblud is a British pop punk star who has been on the music scene since around 2018, but I think he can officially say he's made it now that he has Florence Pugh in one of his music videos. Check out the new video for 'Zombie': Wow, I totally understand why Florence Pugh not only signed on for this, but was thought about for 'Zombie.' It's not your average video starring a famous actress as a nurse; it's really taking viewers into the mindset of what it feels like to be a healthcare worker day by day, and how harrowing it can be to see so much death all the time. While we'd assume when Yungblud made the song that he was thinking about his own experiences with 'looking like a zombie,' he gave a new meaning to the song on his upcoming album called 'Zombie' by making it about a young nurse just trying to get through the day. Upon the release of 'Zombie,' the music video has been labeled as a 'love letter to nurses.' In Pugh's own commentary on the video on her Instagram Stories, she thanked the punk star for having her 'on your journey.' She said she will 'always be grateful for this moment and forever impressed' by what he does and 'why' he does it. The comment section of the Instagram announcement video is also flooded with healthcare workers thanking Yungblud and Pugh for making the video. Check out some of them: 'As a Healthcare worker. THIS is a true representation of our daily struggles. We laugh. We cry. We scream. What a beautiful video and anthem. Thank you Dom.' - @thejennorater 'As a healthcare worker who worked in critical care during the pandemic and witnessed so much death. Thank you for this. It truly hit home. Ugly crying by how beautiful this was.' - @missgio_ 'As an icu nurse, I felt every scene! Thank you 🖤💋' - @ 'As a nurse, thank you ❤️ This is a beautiful song and video.' - @katherinefruendt 'This video really highlights the intense ups and downs with being a nurse. As a nurse, thank you, this was lovely to watch 🥹🤍' - @adellaturay 'As a nurse this makes me feel so seen and appreciated🥹🖤 I love you so much, thank you🖤' - @ Sure, Florence Pugh is a lot more likely to show up in a sparkly dress on her usual day to day, but her talent to make us feel deeply is already touching so many who can relate to the content of the video. Pugh has already made us cry for her Thunderbolts role and playing a young mom with cancer in We Live In Time, and this new role for 'Zombie' is another great performance from Ms. Pugh.

Actor Florence Pugh pours pints at London pub with singer Yungblud
The 29-year-old appeared at The Devonshire in Piccadilly on Friday, where she was seen working behind the bar and chatting with customers, after starring in a music video for the singer's Zombie single. Pugh was cheered after pouring a perfect pint of Guinness before asking 'whose is this?', and later remarking 'I'm sorry' after pouring a less impressive drink. In another clip, she can be seen learning to pour pints with a member of staff, describing her own first attempt as 'a bit lumpy'. It comes after Yungblud, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, turned up at Camden's Hawley Arms to put in a shift behind the bar earlier this year. The 27-year-old released his music video for Zombie, taken from his forthcoming fourth studio album, Idols, on Friday, with the album due for release on June 20. Oscar-winner Pugh stars in the video as a health worker on the brink, who is dealing with grief and exhaustion, wearing a set of angel wings. Speaking about the video, Yungblud said: '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.' Pugh most recently starred in Marvel's Thunderbolts, which was released earlier this year, and sees the British star play Yelena Belova. She is also known for her roles in Little Women (2019), Don't Worry Darling (2022), and Dune: Part Two (2024), and previously appeared in Rachel Chinouriri's music video for Never Need Me. Yungblud has had two number one albums in the UK chart with Weird!, in 2020, and his self-titled album in 2022. Earlier in the year, he received the disruptor of the year award at the Nordoff And Robbins Northern Music Awards, held in Liverpool.
