Rick Genest (August 7, 1985 – August 1, 2018) was a Canadian artist, actor, and fashion model. He was also known as Zombie Boy. Genest was featured in Lady Gaga's video for "Born This Way", with Lady Gaga wearing makeup to replicate Genest's tattoos.[1]


He was cast as the character "foreman" in the 2013 movie 47 Ronin.


Planned to be unveiled in 2019, an 11.5-foot (3.5 m) sculpture of Genest called “Self-Conscious Gene” will be a new permanent fixture at the Science Museum, London, UK. The statue is to be created by British artist Marc Quinn.[2]


On August 1, 2018, Genest was found dead after a fall from the balcony at his Plateau-Mont-Royal apartment.[3] Police ruled his death as a suicide.[4]
