Biography
Lipa covered a variety of tracks, from “If I Ain’t Got You” by Alicia Keys to “Beautiful” by Christina Aguilera. At 15 years old, her natural talent grabbed the attention of modeling agencies, securing her a spot in entertainment.
Throughout 2013, Lipa endured a strenuous modeling career and decided to change directions. Eventually, she signed a record deal with Warner Bros. and kickstarted her music career. Her first single, “New Love,” showed off her raspy voice while staying true to the sounds of smooth pop. However, Lipa’s next release, “Be the One,” delivered an even more relatable energy. Its dance-pop elements helped the track explode in several countries, including Australia and New Zealand.
Dua Lipa’s single “Hotter Than Hell” met additional success. After the single landed on the UK charts, Lipa became an artist to look out for. It was no surprise the subsequent release of “Blow Your Mind (Mwah)” debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100. The dance-inspired track set the tone for the artist’s growing discography. As her fanbase grew, Lipa took control of her popstar persona. She secured collabs on Sean Paul’s “No Lie” and Martin Garrix’s “Scared to Be Lonely,” furthering her status in UK’s music scene in 2016.
Lipa’s popularity soared when her self-titled debut finally arrived in 2017. Her sixth single, “New Rules,” was a certified record-breaker. After taking the no. 1 spot in the UK, the song made a massive impact in numerous countries, including the US. Thanks to “New Rules,” Lipa obtained five Brit nominations. She won two, including British Breakthrough Act and British Female Solo Act, elevating her status as a soon-to-be popstar. From 2017 to 2018, Lipa took the concert world by storm and headlined her first tour for her self-titled debut.
More collaborations alongside in-demand artists proved Lipa’s growing fame. “One Kiss” with Calvin Harris eased its way onto British radio waves in 2018, delivering a staple dance club sound. Ultimately, the success of “Electricity” with Mark Ronson and Diplo (aka Silk City) allowed Lipa’s career to take a significant turn. Her signature voice paired well with the record producer duo’s electronic elements. Lipa’s musical versatility shined and laid the groundwork for her highly-anticipated sophomore album, Future Nostalgia.
“Don’t Start Now” was a sneak peek into the musician’s fresh persona. Drawing inspiration from old-school disco and nightclub synth-wave, the single became an undeniable smash. Lipa continued to leave her mark on the charts with the follow-up “Physical.” It was the perfect segue into her Future Nostalgia era.
The singer’s second full-length record left a lasting impression during an unpredictable year. Thanks to numerous top 10 tracks, Future Nostalgia became one of the most streamed albums by a female artist on Spotify in 2020. Her modern take on ’80s disco garnered many new listeners and a well-deserved Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album. It was a testament to Lipa’s strength as an ever-changing popstar. She aimed even higher by collaborating with other famous musicians like BLACKPINK, Megan Thee Stallion, and Miley Cyrus.
Nearly four years later, the artist’s “Future Nostalgia Tour” launched her success to the next level. Despite postponed and canceled 2020 dates, Lipa wanted the show to go on. She took center stage with choreographed sequences and dream-worthy dance beats. Fans from all over the world, including the US, Latin America, and Europe, witnessed the pop singer up close and personal. Lipa charted new territory with one of the most anticipated tours in 2022 and opened the way for more critical acclaim.
Live reviews
This was a great concert! Dua Lipa is a great performer with a really strong stage presence. Really loved her voice.
Although she did interact with the audience, I felt that she did so less than other artists I've seen (stuff like explaining her songs a bit more, storytelling related to the city/audience). It didn't really affect how electric she was on stage though.
The concert opened with Ro Ransom, who performed about 5 songs. Her set felt short, but it was still 13 songs, but obviously she doesn't have that much released material out yet compared to other artists.
Her hits like Hotter Than Hell, Be The One, and Blow Your Mind (Mwah) were the most exciting, but I was really looking forward to Genesis and she did not disappoint there. Scared to Be Lonely was also great. I also love No Lies, but I wish she would've done her own spin on Sean Paul's parts too.
Overall it was a great time! Definitely see her if you like her music!

Cologne 10/22/2016 with Dua Lipa!
Perfect show with great performance by the band and Dua Lipa! She sings live without background singers and has an amazing voice! Including her actions with and reactions to the audience by giving some fans the chance to join a song with her and the band together on stage, just to have fun and celebrate the moment with her music was great! Her perfect look and the good acoustics makes it a real experience and a perfect event to be there!
I'd join her concerts again anytime and anywhere, if I'll have time for sure! Hope she will come to Düsseldorf too! I'm waiting for her CD to buy it in real and hope she'll release her album soon! Hugs and Kisses from an fan from Germany! Thanks for the great evening and hope to see Dua Lipa again! Yours sincerely Stefan Meier ;) ***XOXOXO***XXX*** ;)

Absolutely the best concert I was ever at, honestly I don't think any other artist could top this. She had such an incredible presence on stage, every eye was on her and her wonderful team. Dua and her dancers moved gracefully and fluidly, with bursts of power and energy. Her vocals were insanely beautiful, every word was sung with such passion and love. Her grand finale of IDGAF and New Rules was simply amazing, with breathtaking choreography and stunning visuals behind her. The band sounded great and the backup vocalists and dancers were on point for every minute. Without a doubt in my mind it was the very best live performance I have ever seen, and I don't think anything in the future will ever compare to it.

SHE IS AMAZING!! I can't even begin to explain, I can go on for days. She connected very well with every single person in the audience! I don't know how she does it but we each left feeling as if we each had our own experience with her. I LOVE every single one of her songs and HER in general! So much love was sent to her from the audience and we were all brought together by that. She is so very humble and sweet to every person even though at times we were difficult because we wouldn't leave when stage crew told us to because we wanted to spend more time with her. I got a picture with her and that just wrapped the night of an already perfect day at the concert!! I hope to see her again in concert, I'll be one of the first in line. I LOVE DUA!!!!

Oh, wow. Dua Lipa was absolutely fantastic! She is extraordinarily talented and really knows how to work a crowd. The band was brilliant — and I can say it was definitely loud enough!
I was very lucky to see her at a venue such as the Apollo. Such a small venue for somebody doing an arena tour! We got the tickets very early on, before she became massive, and I’m very glad we did.
The whole way home I was smiling. The last song — New Rules — set the place on fire, that last chorus was insanely good, and all complete with confetti canons!
Thank you for the time, Dua Lipa! Money well-spent; it was worth every second!
This concert will stay in my mind for as long as I live, thank you!

I hope she reads this. SO lemme spill the tea. It was freaking amazing. I was so close I could see ever pore on her, and lemme tell you there isn’t many. She’s so amazing and I felt the show ran pretty smoothly except for the fact that it was very hot and everyone around you was sweating their ass off. But she was great. Best night of my life seeing the love of my life. She was so good and it was so beautiful if she ever were to return I would be there in a heart beat. Though the initial show was cancelled I wasn’t one bit mad after attending this one and it was really nice that my old tickets still were valid. Thanks dua, love you lots. -your biggest fan:)

It was the most lit concert i had ever attended. Dua was so full of life & super hyped for the whole concert. Im still upset that yesterday had come to an end way too soon. The most memorable memory i had was the moment she teared uo in her speech for 'New Love' as that song was way too genuine and its from the most vulnerable side of hers. The next memorable moment was the participation in 'IDGAF'the crowd was so wild, and Dua also had a moment with us when she remixed the sentence 'I dont give a F' like amazing man this is the most mesmerising concert i had ever attended. I love you Dua. (heartsheartshearts)

She truly was the most amazing beautiful person I have ever seen. Her voice was a bit tired, as she said, but she still did sound like an actual angel ! She has amazing stage confidence and her moves were gorgeous. I didn't think it was possible to fall in love all over again with Dua. I was also supposed to be balcony but I paid some extra $40 and got barricade ! I was so excited and emotional because Hello I Get To See THE Dua Lipa Up Close. She also stared at me :') An actual angel ! Definitely spend those coins on this talented gal. Dua also looks even more gorgeous in person I cried.

One of the best and enjoyable concerts I’ve ever been to. I’m in stalls standing and very close to the stage. I enjoyed more in a smaller venue in Brixton O2 Academy than O2 at Greenwich Peninsula. The crowds are behaving very well therefore, no pushing or fighting from behind.
Dua Lipa is amazing, she sang really well and performed really good. Love her music songs. She speaks out really well to the fans; she does care for her fans.
The stage screen, sound system and lightings are awesome.
I especially enjoyed the last 2 songs. Awesome, awesome, awesome.
Stay Awesome!!
