Dua Lipa, renowned for chartbusters like “Levitating,” has marked her captivating return to social media by unveiling a bold new red hairdo on Instagram. After a hiatus from the platform and clearing her account of previous posts, the singer showcased her revamped look.
Dressed in a tricolor tank top with a minimalist makeup approach, Lipa tagged ace photographer and filmmaker Tyrone Lebon, leaving hints of potential new music in the pipeline. With the simple yet intriguing caption “Miss me?”, fans showered their favourite pop star with warm welcomes, eagerly voicing their anticipation for her upcoming work.
Hints of a New Sound
While fan comments ranged from heartfelt messages like “We missed you a looootttttt. I love you” to excited ones like “OH MY GOD DUAAAAAA, I LOVED THIS HAAAAIIIIIRRR,” many speculated about her forthcoming musical projects. A prevailing fan theory suggests the release of her next album in 2024.
Lipa added fuel to this speculation during a New York Times interview, mentioning her exploration of a “new sound” that promises to retain its pop essence.
Reflecting on the current times, Lipa commented, “It’s definitely been a weird time, and you never really know what the right thing to do is at a time like this.” She expressed her eagerness for fans to resonate with her upcoming album, hoping it brings a glimmer of joy to their days.
The hiatus wasn’t just about introspection and music for Lipa. She embraced the cinematic world by joining the cast of Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” movie, portraying a blue-haired mermaid. On a personal note, her relationship with French director Romain Gavras blossomed, as evident from their red-carpet appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
As the anticipation builds, fans continue to express their excitement for Lipa’s evolving sound. As a throwback, “Future Nostalgia”, her 2020 album, comforted many during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.
