Dua Lipa reveals more details about her upcoming album 'DL3'
She joined Harriet on KISS
Last updated 15th Nov 2023
Following the release of her new hit 'Houdini', Dua Lipa joined Harriet on KISS FM UK to talk about her new music and what we can expect from her upcoming third album. Dua has previously revealed that her new music is quite different from her previous music sonically, however she told us about the album title and songs.
Despite not confirming the title, or confirming how many tracks there will be, Dua did reveal that she had the name for the album before she started writing.
"The tracklist is locked in," Dua explained to Harriet, continuing: "The album title, I knew before I started writing..."
She continued: "The album title was just something I really... felt like I really resonated with, I wasn't 100% sure it was going to end up being that. I think it was just like the more I wrote, the more it just made sense. And I just feel like it just keeps being much more connected to everything that's happening."
Despite being a huge pop star, Dua also admitted that she can still walk down the street without being recognised! The singer told Harriet: "I don't fell like I ever have to 'Houdini' out of a normal scenario.
"This is the thing, it's like I don't want to jinx it. I have such a duality with my life, work is extraordinary and crazy and insane and I get to have these amazing experiences, and then when I'm home, especially in London, like I can walk down the street, I can go to the shop, I can go bowling - I don't really like bowling - but I can go bowling.
"All those things that just keep my everyday life so normal, like yeah, there might be the odd person come up and be like 'oh it's nice to meet you', or 'can we take a picture' or something, but it's really not like intense, like it's not overwhelming, and I feel like I can really have really like normal every day kind of thing."
The singer, who starred in the Barbie movie as Mermaid Barbie admitted it took two people to carry her around! When Harriet suggested a tour she said: "I'll think about it, but with a fishtail this is all my worlds colliding!"
