The YUNGBLUD Show is back after a brief hiatus and this time it's to celebrate Pride Month.

YUNGBLUD took to YouTube on Monday (June 22) to announce the newest episode of his series will air this Thursday (June 25) at 12 pm ET/9 am PST.

“Happy Pride Month, 'The YUNGBLUD Show' is back!” he said in front of a rainbow flag and palm trees backdrop.

He revealed that a few special guests will be making appearances including Paris Hilton (yes, that Paris Hilton) and activist Kenidra Woods. Even more exciting, he teased a surprise would be revealed as well.

"There is a very special announcement at the end of the show,” he said. Last time he said that, we got his new single, “Weird!,” so hopefully it means another brand-new song is on the way. 

Before signing off, YUNGBLUD had a very loud and clear message for anyone watching:

“I know the past couple months have been very scary and weird, so I would like to take this opportunity to say, f*** racism, f*** homophobia, as always f*** the coronavirus, and f*** Mr. Donald Trump. I'll see ya Thursday.”

YUNGBLUD has been attending Black Lives Matters protests in Los Angeles almost daily alongside Halsey and announced all donations from this episode of his show will be going towards Black Lives Matter.

At the end of May, YUNGBLUD also shared a new poem with his fans about protests and fighting against racism. You can listen to it below.
