Rock star Yungblud has revealed a severe leg injury, showing fans a photo of his leg completely bandaged from foot to thigh alongside a pair of crutches. The 29-year-old, whose real name is Dominic Richard Harrison, is preparing for upcoming shows in Portugal and Belgium, with his next performance at the Vilar de Mouros Festival just two days away.
Injury and upcoming performances
The Zombie singer did not disclose the exact nature of his injury or how it happened, but it was reported that he hurt his leg while dirt biking. Despite the setback, he assured fans he still plans to perform and give it his all. In a statement online, he wrote: “Leg f*****. Still giggin. Still standin (sort of).”
This is not the first time the musician has taken the stage with an injury. He previously performed with a hot pink leg cast and a wheelchair after breaking his ankle or foot during a tour stop in Houston. He went straight from the hospital to perform at Austin City Limits and, despite being brought out in a wheelchair, delivered a high-energy set.

Fans responded to the latest injury news with support. One wrote: "What a f****** rockstar." Another added: "Take it easy rest up a lil bit dont f*** up youre leg my dear."
Yungblud, born in Doncaster, was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) as a child. He has also spoken openly about experiencing struggles with his mental health, including bouts of depression and burnout.
