Rock musician Yungblud has sparked a social media frenzy with a cheeky declaration aimed at his older female fans, following a revealing incident on Sydney Harbour. The 28-year-old star, whose real name is Dominic Harrison, was photographed naked on a yacht alongside 50-year-old socialite and nude artist Dina Broadhurst.
Harbour Antics and a Saucy Social Media Tease
The incident occurred ahead of the Australian leg of his IDOLS World Tour, with reports stating the singer used only his hand for modesty during the boat party. In response to media coverage, including an article titled "Why cougars all want Yungblud" from News 23, the musician took to Instagram with a playful message for his followers down under.
He posted: "Australia im here. Tell the cougars I'll see em Saturday night." This direct address to his mature female fanbase, whom he affectionately calls "cougars," quickly fuelled online chatter and headlines.
Embracing an 'Aggressive' Older Fanbase
Yungblud's comment is not an isolated remark about his demographic appeal. He recently told News.com.au that older women constitute a significant and enthusiastic part of his following. "I’m telling you, the older birds, they’re a bit more aggressive. It’s crazy, you know what I mean? The nails are sharper!" he joked.
He added with his characteristic rock-and-roll attitude: "I'm down [for it]. It's definitely another generation's vibe but whatever man, rock'n'roll." Despite this playful banter, the singer is reportedly in a committed relationship with fellow musician Jesse Jo Stark, 34, after a brief split earlier in the year.
A History of Provocative Posts
This is not the first time Yungblud has shared risqué content with his millions of followers. Towards the end of last year, he posted a series of suggestive images, including one in a hotel room wearing just a towel and another backstage with a lit cigarette tucked into his Calvin Klein underwear.
Fans have reacted with a mix of humour and admiration. One user quipped on a previous post, "Forgive me father for I have zoomed," while another commented on his skincare routine: "I love a man that appreciates good skincare." Others have even called for him to become the new face of Calvin Klein.
The star's unapologetic and bold online persona continues to drive engagement as he kicks off his tour in Australia, proving that his connection with fans—of all ages—remains as strong as ever.
