Yungblud Announced the Upcoming Release of His New Single ‘Strawberry Lipstick’
On July 7, Yungblud, the English singer-songwriter, revealed that his newest single, “Strawberry Lipstick,” will debut on July 16.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Yungblud was often seen wearing dresses, nail polish, and makeup on stage. The cover of “Strawberry Lipstick” is no exception and features his quirky fashion choices, which we love. Yungblud poses with a white bulldog in a short sequin dress in the pattern of the United Kingdom’s national flag. He also wears pink socks and a pair of high-platform black shoes, which were most likely made by the famous British fashion company, Dr. Martens.

The “11 minutes” and “Parents” singer is known for incorporating the post-emo, punk, and rock genres into his music. The 22-year-old artist is loved by many due to his provocative and unconventional stage presence. To announce the release of “Strawberry Lipstick,” Yungblud set fire to the white fabric while rocking an eccentric pink hairstyle that resembles a strawberry’s shape. Take a look below.
