Dua Lipa (/ˈduːə ˈliːpə/ ^ⓘ DOO-ə LEE-pə, Albanian: [ˈdua ˈlipa]; born 22 August 1995)^[1] is an English and Albanian^[a] singer and songwriter. Her voice and disco-influenced production have received critical acclaim and media coverage. Her accolades include seven Brit Awards and three Grammy Awards. Time magazine included her in its list of the top 100 most influential people in the world for 2024.^[2]

Lipa worked as a model before signing a recording contract with Warner Bros. in 2014. She rose to prominence with her eponymous debut album in 2017, which peaked at number three on the UK Albums Chart and spawned the singles "Be the One", "IDGAF", and the UK number-one single "New Rules". Lipa was honoured with the Brit Awards for British Female Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act. Her second single, "One Kiss" with Calvin Harris, was the best-selling song of 2018 in the UK and won the Brit Award for Song of the Year. In 2019, she won the Grammy Award for Best New Artist and for Best Dance Recording for "Electricity", her collaborative single with Silk City.

Lipa's second album, Future Nostalgia (2020), became her first UK number-one album, and won the Brit Award for British Album of the Year and the Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album. Its lead single, "Don't Start Now", scored the longest top-ten stay for a British female artist on the UK Singles Chart and ranked in the top five of the Billboard Hot 100 year-end chart of 2020. The album's success continued with the follow-up singles "Physical", "Break My Heart", and "Levitating", the last of which topped the Billboard year-end Hot 100 chart of 2021 and was certified diamond in the US. Lipa subsequently scored her third and fourth UK number-one singles with the 2021 Elton John duet "Cold Heart (Pnau remix)" and "Dance the Night" from the soundtrack of the film Barbie (2023), wherein she also made her acting debut. In 2024, she released her third studio album, Radical Optimism, which was preceded by the singles "Houdini", "Training Season", and "Illusion", and had a supporting role in the spy film Argylle.
