Dua Lipa Reacts to Busker Performing for Her at Glastonbury Festival
A recent video of Dua Lipa reacting to a busker performing for her at this year’s Glastonbury Festival has been making the rounds on social media. The clip captures a moment backstage where the pop star was approached by a busker known as Liam C, who serenaded her with his ukulele and a new song.
In the video, Liam introduces himself to Lipa and explains that he was inspired by a documentary she did in Camden. He then proceeds to play a snippet of his song for her, seeking her reaction. Lipa, holding a can of Diet Coke, watches the performance with a smile, nodding her head and expressing her liking for the song midway through.
The video sparked a flurry of reactions from fans on Twitter, with some commenting on Lipa’s visible discomfort during the performance. Despite the awkwardness, many praised her polite response to the busker. The moment added a human touch to Lipa’s larger-than-life presence at Glastonbury, where she made history as the festival’s first headliner this year.
In a glowing four-star review of Lipa’s Glastonbury set, NME hailed it as a “visual spectacle” and a “glittering celebration of pop.” The review lauded Lipa for her high-energy performance that showcased her star power and charisma on stage. However, Lipa faced backlash online after being accused of miming during her set, with detractors claiming that her performance was too polished to be live. Lipa swiftly shut down these rumors, asserting that she does not mime.
Looking ahead, rumors are swirling about Lipa potentially announcing a massive show at London’s Wembley Stadium in the near future. The pop star continues to captivate audiences with her dynamic performances and chart-topping hits, solidifying her status as one of music’s brightest stars.
As Lipa’s career continues to soar, moments like the one with the busker at Glastonbury serve as a reminder of the genuine connections she shares with her fans. Despite the pressures of fame, Lipa remains grounded and appreciative of the talent and creativity that surrounds her in the music industry.
