Fans are rushing to social media in support after Kid Cudi broke his foot at Coachella.

Kid Cudi - real name Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi - performed at the 2024 Coachella Festival yesterday (21 April), however his performance was brought to an abrupt end when he tried to jump off stage and injured himself in the process.

Cudi took to the Sahara Tent yesterday to perform his Coachella set, last having performed at the festival back in 2019. However, his performance was cut short when he tried to hop down from the stage to join the crowds below.

A video of the incident posted to TikTok by a user called @socalflaco shows the rapper up on stage, trying to make his way down while his song with David Guetta - 'Memories' - plays in the background.

After a bit of a wobble, Cudi resolves to take the leap, alas as he goes down, he lands on one foot, the other slipping and sliding on the ground in front of him.

Cudi stays on the floor, looking visibly in pain before people rush to help him, the rapper can be seen being propped up by a cameraman and one other person, hopping his way away from the stage.

Crowds were left listening to a recording of 'Pursuit of Happiness' played by Cudi's DJ.

Cudi updated fans in a post to X earlier today (22 April).

He said: "Hey guys, so I broke my foot today at the show. just leavin the hospital.

"Never broken a bone before so this is all a bit crazy.

"I wanna thank u all for ur concerns and well wishes!! I love yall man. I heard yall still ragin when I was offstage. Made me smile big."

And it's not taken long for fans of the musician to flood to the post in support.

One X user said: "Praying for a quick recovery big bro!! You killed that set too!"

"It was a dope set bro. Feel better," another added.

A third commented: "Oh bro! You left it all out on the stage. Heal up."

"Raged too hard, wishing you a speedy recovery," a fourth said.

And a final resolved: "Hope u good cudder, that was an amazing show, best one throughout all of coachella."

In June and August later this year, Cudi is set to tour North America with Pusha T so hopefully his foot fully recovers for then.
