Jared Leto embraced his edgy side as he performed a free acoustic set for fans at Piccadilly Circus in London on Sunday.
The Thirty Seconds To Mars frontman, 52 – who recently pranked contestants on the Wheel Of Fortune – is currently in the U.K. amid the band’s 2024 Seasons World Tour.
The star – who teased the special live performance on X earlier on Sunday – opted to wear a sheer, black shirt that was partially unbuttoned at the front as he flashed a glimpse of his toned figure.
He additionally slipped into a pair of black trousers and layered the ensemble with a black, cropped jacket.
For a finishing touch, the House Of Gucci actor donned a pair of black socks as well as blue, skull shoes to stay comfortable while moving about the bustling city.

Leto could be seen arriving to the Eros statue located at Piccadilly Circus in London’s West End and carried a guitar as he played a few hit tracks.
He was soon gathered by a large crowd and fans who excitedly sang along with Jared during the memorable moment.
Some were spotted whipping out their smartphones to film the singer during the special performance.
Afterwards, the Oscar winner casually strolled back to his hotel located in the Mayfair district of London. He was joined by more fans who walked alongside him, with others trying to capture a quick snap with the star.
Earlier on Sunday, Leto took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to tease that he would be stopping by Piccadilly Circus in a short clip.
While seated on a plane, Jared expressed, ‘What’s up, London? Today, Eros statue in Piccadilly…’
‘We’re gonna come, say hello, maybe play a couple songs,’ he concluded, while putting his index finger to his lips and added, ‘Shhh. See you soon.’
And in the caption of the reel, the actor wrote in all caps, ‘LONDON. PICCADILLY CIRCUS. EROS STATUE. 6:30PM. SPECIAL PERFORMANCE.’

Jared held a similar, free concert for fans while in Lisbon earlier this week on Thursday, according to the Portugal Resident.
During the performance, he also played with a guitar and was accompanied by Thirty Seconds To Mars guitarist, Steve Aiello.
The duo sang a few songs for fans that had gathered for the acoustic concert which began at the Terreiro do Paço square, with the stars also stopping to play more as they strolled along streets in the city.
Leto and the band is currently in the U.K. for a series of concerts amidst the 2024 Seasons World Tour – which is in support of their 2023 album, It’s The End Of The World But It’s A Beautiful Day.
On Monday, June 3, Thirty Seconds To Mars will perform in Nottingham followed by a stop in London on Tuesday as well as additional concerts in Glasgow, Manchester and Cardiff.
The band will then head to other European cities throughout the summer, such as Brussels and Amsterdam.
In July, Leto and the group will return to the United States through early September before going abroad once again, and will make more stops in Europe and Australia. The final tour date is set for October 9 in Norway.
Late last year in November, Jared climbed the Empire State Building to announce that Thirty Seconds Of Mars was going on tour.

He notably climbed from floor 86 up to the 104th floor which is around 1,300 feet in the air.
At the time, Jared expressed to Today, ‘I was more excited than nervous, to tell you the truth.’
‘But I have to be honest, it was very, very hard. It was a lot harder than I thought it would be. Just the endurance that it took, the stamina that it took, and it was very sharp.’
‘It’s incredible,’ he added. ‘To watch the sunrise overlooking the city that’s meant so much to me. Ever since I was a kid, New York stood for the place that you went to make your dreams come true.’
‘And as a young kid, I wanted to be an artist, and New York was the place that you came to be an artist. And the Empire State Building was always that symbol for me.’

And during an interview with Billboard in April, Leto reflected on scaling the iconic NYC building and said, ‘Well, it was a celebration of the announcement of Thirty Seconds Of Mars tour. We haven’t toured in five years.’
‘And I thought, I have to do something crazy. I mean, the tour is crazy enough honestly, but I wanted to do something crazy and it was a fun thing to do.’
On the topic of the tour thus far, Jared said, ‘I don’t know, man. Something’s happening. It’s crazy out there, the audiences are on fire, the shows have been like, honestly, the best shows we’ve ever played.’
‘I don’t know what’s happening after a couple decades, but it’s just crazy…,’ he further gushed.
