The ‘Dance the Night’ singer teased her upcoming music and discusses her big nominations with ET on the 2024 GRAMMYs red carpet.
Dua Lipa once again proved her fashion prowess as she strutted down the red carpet at the 66th GRAMMY Awards on Sunday.
The 26-year-old artist turned heads with her edgy Courrèges style, showcasing her daring fashion choices in a custom silver Courrèges dress that she told ET’s Nischelle Turner made her feel “strong.”
Dressed to impress, Dua made a bold statement in the mesmerizing long-sleeve metal dress with a plunging neckline that perfectly blended sophistication with a twist thanks to the cutouts at her hips, which gave tasteful glimpses of bare skin. The dress reflects the singer’s fearless approach to both her music and personal style.
The Barbie actress wore her fiery red hair in loose waves down her back and accessorized the look with bold jewels from Tiffany & Co.
“I feel very excited to wear it. I feel very strong in it,” Dua told ET about her dress. “It’s definitely a heavy, like, metal dress, so I was like, I feel very Joan of Arc.”
And while Dua has been making headlines for her rumored romance with actor Callum Turner, the singer brought a much more wholesome date for her red carpet strut: her dad Dukagjin Lipa!
A powerhouse in the music industry, Dua’s appearance at the GRAMMYs was not only a celebration of her musical achievements but also a testament to her influence in the world of fashion. The artist, known for her trendsetting looks and boundary-pushing style, has become a fashion icon in her own right.
While Dua’s fashion statement on the red carpet was undeniably memorable, her musical contributions were not overshadowed. The artist received acclaim for her involvement in the Barbie movie soundtrack, particularly the nominated song “Dance the Night,” which earned her nods in two categories at this year’s GRAMMY Awards.
The nominations for Best Song Written for Visual Media and Song of the Year for “Dance the Night” place Dua alongside industry heavyweights like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo, creating an intense competition for the coveted Song of the Year award.
“It goes back to that thing of where, as long as I feel like I’m having fun or making something that I’m really proud of and I’m in the moment, and then I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, and I feel that way when we were making ‘Dance the Night,’” Dua says of the nominated record.
She adds that she and co-writer Caroline Ailin and producers Andrew Wyatt and Mark Ronson were “having such a great time in the studio,” which contributed to the jovial nature of the song. “It felt so good to be a part of such an incredible project. It felt so good to do it with my friends. That whole experience as a whole was really special,” she shares. “I’m happy that that’s like way out into the world now and like had its own life and it’s been great.”
The singer, who is set to perform during Sunday’s ceremony, tells ET that she has “something special” for viewers tonight. “I’m really, really excited about this performance… It’s intense, it’s strong, and it’s dancy,” she teases.”
Dua’s GRAMMY journey has been nothing short of remarkable. With 10 nominations in her repertoire, including wins for Best New Artist and Best Dance Recording for “Electricity” at the 61st Annual GRAMMY Awards, she has consistently demonstrated her musical prowess and versatility. Her second studio album, Future Nostalgia, released in 2020, has solidified her position in the industry, earning critical acclaim and accolades, including Best Pop Vocal Album at the 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards.
And there’s more coming down the line! Dua is premiering a new song for fans on Feb. 15, which she calls a personal record for her.
“[It’s] just about kind of knowing how to… like not expecting for people to like, love you right, you know? You’re just like, training season’s over. You’re done teaching people how to do things right,” Dua teased of her upcoming single. “[Come correct or] don’t come at all. That’s the vibe.”
Of the song’s personal nature, the singer shared that she got to record much of the song “at home in London.”
“I feel like with every album, I get to grow more and learn more about myself and I become more free as a songwriter and as a performer and as an artist,” she said. “So, this one, I’m just like digging deeper and deeper. I love it. I’m proud of this one.”
