British artist Yungblud turned heads at the MTV Video Music Awards 2025 with his daring fashion choice, sporting dangerously low-rise leather pants on the red carpet. The singer-songwriter, known for his bold aesthetic, made a striking entrance at the UBA Arena in New York on September 7, stripping off a long coat to reveal his unconventional outfit.
Yungblud, whose real name is Dominic Richard Harrison, posed confidently in his ultra-low pants, secured with a flashy belt featuring a large silver buckle. The musician’s shirtless look showcased his collection of torso tattoos, including a prominent skull and cross design on his right hip. Paired with an array of jewellery, including a cross gifted by the late Ozzy Osbourne, Yungblud exuded his signature edgy style at the prestigious event.
The 28-year-old artist, accompanied by his girlfriend Jesse Jo Stark, completed his red carpet look with slicked-back hair, smoky eye makeup, and a charismatic attitude. The couple made a stylish entrance, rekindling their romance following a brief hiatus earlier in the year.
Yungblud is set to perform at the MTV VMAs 2025 as part of a special tribute to the legendary Ozzy Osbourne, who passed away at the age of 76 in July. Expressing his honour to pay homage to Osbourne, Yungblud shared his sentiments on social media ahead of the event. The tribute performance will also feature icons like Steven Tyler, Joe Perry, and Nuno Bettencourt celebrating Osbourne’s musical legacy.
Hosting the star-studded award show is LL Cool J, while leading the nominations is pop sensation Lady Gaga with 12 nods, including categories like Video of the Year and Artist of the Year. The night promises electrifying performances from A-list artists such as Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar, and ROSÉ, alongside exciting appearances by Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, and Billie Eilish.
As the MTV VMAs continue to be a platform for celebrating music and fashion, Yungblud’s bold sartorial choice adds to the event’s legacy of iconic red carpet moments. Stay tuned for more updates on the evening’s performances and winners as the industry’s biggest stars gather to honour musical excellence and creativity.
