Dua Lipa is a Kosovar Albanian whose family was a refugee in London in the 1990s. Her first name means “love” in Albanian; she doesn’t have a middle name. Lipa wanted to be a musician so much that she moved to London at 15 to try to make it happen.
A few years ago, her family moved back to Kosovo. Before she signed with a label, she used social media to get the word out about herself.
Singer Dua Lipa, who is 27 years old, said that she hopes someday to win an Oscar. The singer has worked with many different artists, including Elton John, Miley Cyrus, and Chris Martin.
Her early music was called dark pop, but the songs on her successful second album were faster-paced. Lipa described Future Nostalgia as a “concept album about nostalgia for the future.”
Mirror.co.uk reports that pop star Adele is set to make her acting debut in Matthew Vaughn’s spy drama ‘Argylle,’ with Henry Cavill, Sam Rockwell, and Bryce Dallas Howard. The singer would also like to learn more about the industry side of acting so she can start producing films of her own.
“Dua Lipa received a ton of scripts and is mostly interested in taking on the serious drama that will receive Oscars buzz,” said a source to The Sun on Sunday.
Dua Lipa is set to star in a new TV spy drama Argylle. According to an insider, the singer has plans to dive headfirst into the acting world.
The insider said: “She wants to hound acting professionally. That’s why she is planning to set up her own Television and film production company so that she can option stories she believes in and take them to larger studios.”
Dua Lipa recently hinted at her involvement in the project; she said via Mirror.co.uk: “The whole thing was thrilling. But I feel like it’s going to have to be gradual for me.” “That’s also the best way to discover yourself,” she added.
In an interview, Dua revealed that she is afraid of being pressured into acting.
“My biggest fear would be taking on a really big role and being, like, f***, now I have to be an actor and feel these emotions and feelings on the camera when I haven’t brought myself up to that point yet,” she explained in an interview with Refinery29.
She also said that she had not dated anyone since splitting with former fiancé Ricky Hil as the past breakup was so painful. But sources say Dua Lipa is dating Jack Harlow, whose recent tribute album to her includes the song “Dua Lipa.”
When he called the British-Albanian pop star before the album was released in May to get her approval, she spoke to him strangely but gave him the okay.
But after meeting each other at Variety’s Hitmakers Brunch in Los Angeles in November, they fell in love and have been communicating nonstop since then. Sources say that he was eager to get to know her better and planned to pursue a relationship.
According to spies, the two met up for lunch in New York City after her Z100 Jingle Ball appearance on Friday and were seen arriving individually at a restaurant in the Meatpacking District for lunch the next day.
