This lavishly illustrated biography tells the story of Dua Lipa who has gone from viral sensation to Grammy award-winning global superstar.
In just a few years the British/Kosovan singer-songwriter has established herself as the doyenne of 'dark pop' with a succession of upbeat catchy hit tracks with dark lyrics and undertones. She's also the queen of collaboration, sought after for her vocals and creative input by the industry's leading and most dynamic artists, producers and DJs including Cal- vin Harris, Mark Ronson and Diplo as well as long-established legends of earlier eras such as artists Chris Martin and Elton John. Dua Lipa released her self-titled debut album featuring the hit singles, 'Be the One', 'IDGAF', 'Hotter Than Hell' and her first UK #1 single 'New Rules'. Her acclaimed fol- low up album, Future Nostalgia, consolidated her status as she continued to provide the soundtrack to the lives of young women the world over with more hit songs including One Kiss, Levitating, Physical and Don't Start Now. Every song is a bop and, with her signature disco/pop and R&B sound. She is the real deal - a legitimate pop sensation and this is her story so far.
