Kid Cudi‘s Coachella set ended abruptly after he seemingly twisted his ankle onstage.

The star was having the time of his life entertaining the masses who filled out the Sahara tent at the California festival in Indio on April 21 when things took an unexpected turn for the worse.


Cudi, who was a last-minute addition to the bill, was performing “Memories” when he tried to jump down from the stage. It appeared he badly twisted his ankle, leaving him wincing.

In a clip shared online, two security staff swiftly helped the star to safety.


The artist didn’t address the crowd as he left while his track, “Pursuit of Happiness,” played. The tumble occurred toward the end of the set.

It was Cudi’s first time performing at Coachella since 2019.

The rapper-singer’s Coachella set came a week after he confirmed his engagement to Lola Abecassis Sartore.

The music star shared a sweet post days after the loved-up couple attended the “Knuckles” premiere in London on April 15.

“My [fiancée] Lola and me at the ‘Knuckles’ premiere. This amazing woman makes me so happy, she is everything to me and I’m so excited to share this news w u all. Life is wild, and right when I felt my future was uncertain, it became crystal clear with Lola. Happy Cud in full effect,” he wrote on Instagram alongside photos of them at the event.

Menswear designer Sartore shared the news with her own followers as she posted a heartfelt message for the star, whose real name is Scott Ramon Seguro Mescudi.

“I never thought I could love someone this much! So proud to call you my fiancé, Scott,” she said.

“The smiles on our faces says it all! Love you to the moon and back. Love u more my angel baby,” she added in her Instagram Story.

In the past, Cudi — who has a daughter, Vada — has been romantically linked to Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura, entertainment attorney Jamie Baratta and costume designer Raquel Deriane.
