Dua Lipa is back and kicking off her “Radical Optimism” Tour with enough energy to power a small country! The 29-year-old pop queen launched her highly anticipated world tour on Tuesday night (November 5), at the Singapore Indoor Stadium — which, after this show, may need new foundations and possibly some therapy.
This isn’t just any tour, mind you; this is a musical pilgrimage that’s going to span the entire planet from Singapore to… well, everywhere. Asia, Australia, Europe, the UK, the US — if there’s a stage and at least one Dua Lipa fan (though usually more, because let’s be real), she’ll be there, flipping her hair and breaking hearts until October 2025. You’ve been warned.
Opening night saw Dua perform nearly two dozen tracks, drawing from her first three albums and sprinkling in her crowd-pleasing collaborations like a chef making the perfect pop soufflé. Picture this: lasers, backup dancers with moves so sharp they could cut diamond, and Dua herself radiating so much confidence she could probably convince you the sky is purple.
And, oh, the set list! It was a buffet of her greatest hits — from bops that make you dance like nobody’s watching (even though everyone is) to those soulful tracks that have you clutching your chest like you’re in a dramatic soap opera. Did she perform “Don’t Start Now”? You bet. Did she leave the crowd in tears with “Levitating”? Oh, absolutely. Were there dance moves that defied the laws of physics? Only a little.
So, if you haven’t gotten tickets yet, stop what you’re doing and click here. Seriously, run, don’t walk. This is going to be a tour so epic, it’ll probably end with scientists renaming optimism itself to “Dua-ism.”
Stay tuned for more updates, set list breakdowns, and dramatic re-enactments of fans fainting when Dua hits that note.
