Dua Lipa has been slammed by Glastonbury viewers after they claimed she is miming her first headline set at the festival, Daily Mail reports.
The English-Albanian singer, 28, headlined the Pyramid Stage at the iconic festival for the first time as day one’s main event.
Dua Lipa looked sensational as she donned a leather studded bodysuit for the performance at Worthy Farm, wowing many fans with her performance.
However not everyone was impressed, as many Glastonbury viewers took to social media to share their theories that the star was miming.
Those watching the show described the possibility of the One Kiss hitmaker not singing live as ‘terrible’ as they slammed her for doing so at such a big gig.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, they wrote: ‘It’s a shame #DuaLipa can’t sing live. Don’t turn up to glasto and mime. Rubbish,’;
‘Worst miming you’ll ever see #DuaLipa,’; ‘Is Dua Lipa miming or? How can it sound like miming and a mic not being loud enough at the same time,’;
‘Anyone watching Glasto? Just whacked it on and Dua Lipa looks like she’s definitely miming almost every word..,’;
‘If you’re headlining glasto on a main stage you should at least sing 90% live. This is terrible from dua. All miming,’;
‘Dua Lipa is 100% miming isn’t she,; ‘Dua Lipa miming at Glastonbury. whats the point?’
Others, however, were captivated by Dua’s performance. ‘dua lipa is actually too good. God I wish I was there .’
‘Smashed it dua lipa’ and ‘Dua Lipa’s been pretty good actually. I only know One Kiss, but her voice is better than I’d thought it would be. Look forward to seeing her in the Sunday afternoon legend slot in about 25 years time’.
‘This Dua Lipa and Kevin Parker collab is magical’.
Earlier in the day, Dua was pictured enjoying a low-key pub lunch with her family as she prepared to take to the stage for her headline show at the Glastonbury Festival on Friday.
Ahead of her show, Dua was spotted sitting down for lunch at THE PIG pub in Bath, with her mother Anesa, father Dukagjin, and her boyfriend Callum Turner.
Dua said she has dreamed about headlining Glastonbury Festival ‘my whole life’ as she kicked off the Pyramid stage slot.
The pop superstar opened her first headline performance at the British festival with impressive choreography to her hit track Training Season from her third studio album, Radical Optimism, which released earlier this year.
She told the crowd: ‘I can’t believe this, I’ve dreamed about this my whole life.
‘And I can’t believe I’m right up here, right here, with you guys, I am so happy to be here with you guys tonight.’
During her performance, the audience could be heard singing loudly along to the words of her 2018 track One Kiss with Calvin Harris.
Meanwhile, during her 2020 hit track Levitating, the singer asked the crowd if they were ready ‘to go to the moon’.
Dua Lipa, who took home the Brit Award for best pop act in March, treated revellers to a selection of her hit songs, including Illusion and Break My Heart.
It comes after Glastonbury organiser Emily Eavis said the pop star was ‘born’ to headline the festival
She told BBC Radio 2’s The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show there will be ‘no big surprises’ at this year’s event, but she did say Coldplay’s Saturday headline slot will be a ‘huge moment’.
