Dua Lipa Reveals Why She Doesn’t Get Too Personal in Her Music

Dua Lipa is known for her dance floor-ready hits more than for her personal life, and she intends to keep it that way.

In a new, wide-ranging 60 Minutes interview with the “Levitating” pop star, journalist Anderson Cooper asks her for her response to critics who say her songs don’t “have a sense of who you are” and aren’t very personal. “It’s something that I just naturally hold back,” Lipa explains. “Some people are just so ruthless with their own private life that they decide to put it all out in a song because they know that it’s going to attract people’s attention.”

She continued, “For me, it was always important to make music that people really loved, not because I was putting someone on blast or because I’m doing it for clickbait at someone else’s expense.”

Her music is certainly something people love about her. Her recently released third studio album, Radical Optimism , topped the Official U.K. Albums Chart and peaked at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, her highest charting project to date.

She’s also gearing up to embark on a 43-date world tour in support of Radical Optimism . The 2025 leg of the tour is slated to launch on March 20 with a show at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia and hit New Zealand before hopping to Europe for arena shows in Spain, France, Germany, the Czech Republic, the Netherlands, Italy, Belgium and England and then moving on to North America for a fall run.
