"No One Believes Me Again": Max Giesinger Broke Finger Petting a Cow

German pop star Max Giesinger has found himself in an unfortunate, albeit humorous, situation after sustaining a broken finger during what was supposed to be a relaxing wellness retreat. The 37-year-old singer, known for his hit "80 Millionen," reportedly suffered the injury while attempting a simple act of kindness: petting a cow.

I wanted to pet a cow, man!

According to Giesinger's own account shared via Instagram, the incident occurred when he approached the cow with his hand near its feed bowl and a metal bar. The cow, apparently not appreciating the gesture, lifted its head forcefully, trapping Giesinger's hand. The result was a "massive" break, necessitating a six-week hiatus from activities crucial to his life and career, including sports and playing the guitar.

The animal did not like that at all and lifted its massive head – Giesinger's hand got caught.

Despite the painful setback, Giesinger appears to be maintaining a good sense of humor about the bizarre accident. He quipped on social media, "I guess the cow liked me less than I liked it," accompanied by a picture of his bandaged right hand. His fans have responded with a flood of well wishes and lighthearted comments, understanding the singer's good-natured take on the situation.

Fortunately for his concert-goers, Giesinger's upcoming schedule is not significantly impacted. His website indicates no performances in the immediate weeks ahead. His next scheduled appearance is a charity open-air concert at the end of May in Hamburg, by which time he expects to be fully recovered and "fit as a fiddle."

I can't do sports or play guitar now, for six weeks.
