Dua Lipa on leaving bad relationships and choosing Radical Optimism

[@jasonchristopher5316]

Tom is not an interviewer, he is a conversationalist. Dua's comment at the end was due recognition of it.

[@michaelgreene4816]

No he's an interviewer...

[@kaartheikgeiyan6004]

As I am.

[@chrispetrillo9042]

Dua is one of the realest most down to earth stars ever. I feel like I could talk to her for hours on end.

[@Tassieish]

Her duet with Chris Stapleton is just another example of a tremendous talent that can combine with any music genre. Is she going to stay with music, or is she going to go into film?

[@lonkinoble9333]

Dua recognized what so many of us have known for a long time - Tom is a stellar interviewer especially with musicians. What I personally did not know what how lovely Dua Lipa seems to be. I enjoyed this interview very much.

[@gregbailey45]

Yes, isn't she! It's what I love most about her. So personable and real. Especially when she's in 'difficult' situations. So together and cool. I'm annoyed with myself that I only discovered Dua late last year (Nov. '23) when she released 'Dance the Night' for the Barbie movie. I've been smitten ever since. Fwiw, i'm 76 and on my 3rd coupling, 20 years in, so I know a bit about relationships... and how to survive them.

[@anantayonzon854]

​@@gregbailey45I mean someone your age, they wouldn't be discovering Dua at all. You're rare. I hope that doesn't come out offensive.

[@nildakovacs-colon5892]

I disagree. Age doesn’t matter if you are well read and up to par. I understand him mid fifties and I only discovered her in 2020. She is absolutely amazing such a real woman down to earth humble well cultured brilliant intelligent and gorgeous!

[@chrissykaufmsn]

She's a doll..so sweet and genuine, I just love her

[@Bikewithlove]

She’s got what it takes to do what she does - making the most of her good genetics, by ‘bringing it’ to her work, committing to it, and involving other successful creators. Making the most of it indeed. The interviewer does a great job of letting her share with her audience.

[@Claudia-qt2uz]

Thank you for the interviewer. You let her speak, finish her thoughts and asked great questions with such curiosity. You also offered great feedback and thoughts of your own. This was great from start to finish.

[@thefirstchampster]

Dua is not wrong, Tom is incredible. Easily one of the best in the world.

[@codyl3389]

She’s such a beautiful person. The more I listen to her the more I respect and love her. She’s an amazing artist and a kind soul.

[@thureinphyo9768]

Elegant and educated. So smart too. The way she suppressed some of the feelings, and switched on and off her mind and emotions on demand. Crazy.

[@andreaxleste]

Dua is just full of light!! ❤

[@Huy0617]

Dua is such a lovely and well spoken person! I can listen and watch Dua the whole day and don't get tired of it. I love her new album it's on repeat the whole day as well. It's so kind of her to give you also a lovely compliment!

[@juniorchavesopicassodeyahu988]

Dua is one of the realest and humblest down to earth stars ever

[@mertozelmusic]

She carries a constant smile that shines and it's very lovely.

[@serenity__now]

Dua's inspiring and a breath of fresh air

[@athlene110]

I'm so glad that people are really appreciating Tom's gift for interviewing. I've been listening to him from when he first started on Q and from the first moment, I was awed by his ability. He is so compassionate and empathetic and meets people where they are at and he's genuine. He just treats everyone as regular human beings because they are. We are all human and all want to connect and share. 😊

[@chrisevans9688]

Chris Evans good news now is on this one day in now q power back on this one day did people would just like you now do that soon thanks you guys and be happy and right tomorrow from me look good

[@shaddaiozuna2783]

I think Dua is a very intelligent woman and loves intelligent interviews. You can tell some of these questions felt challenging just by how are being phrased. Loved this. ❤

[@G2mxrZ]

I appreciate Dua’s take on what makes her tick…….music in general….engaging and connecting with communities through music. It’s part of her DNA and I can relate! Her energy is absolutely contagious! I 💙 that!!!

[@beachpal]

Dua Lipa is the next generational Shania Twain. No one in between came close to their talent, beauty, smarts and work ethics. Hopefully, we'll get to enjoy beautifully inspired. melodious and danceable music from Dua as we did with Shania.

[@chrisbenemann8246]

Found this conversation extremely therapeutic today. Thank you Tom and Dua.

[@calummew7750]

Another sensational interview. The chemistry between you two as music lovers was palpable!

[@dantaylor333]

First time I listened to her speak. Yeah now I see a song writer, a bit like Faouzia. Theres wisdom in those thoughts

[@RandomJtv]

I wrote Dua off a little based on the other interviews of hers that I’d watched. But I’ve come around a bit based on this interview. I couldn’t sit through the Zane Lowe interview, because Dua was giving NOTHING. Dua seems very shy and super guarded in interviews, which can make long-form interviews an absolute slog to watch if the interviewer doesn’t know how to navigate this-which Zane did not. It felt like he gave up trying to get anything out of Dua, therefore every answer from her felt like a non answer or a tangent, and Zane didn’t even bother trying to steer things or converse with her. Dua seems like the type of person who needs direct questions and likes things to be conversational, and Tom got that very quickly-which Dua picked up on and responded to. But then again, it’s his approach with every interview, which is largely why his interviews are always great.

[@hamzehhamwi2789]

Enjoyed every second of this interview, due answers were very smart, genuine and direct. Tom did a good research about her in a way to empower his questions. Which also has a big respect from the guest.

[@retro000]

What a class A interview! Just beautiful communication and bringing out moments,words,by both of you. Dua proves everytime in her interviews how in touch with herself she is, her ability to express herself and humbly so,funnily so. She's so beautiful,beautiful energized soul. Tom,this is the first time I've heard you, and you are soulful,interested and never invasive...such a gift. Both leave this interview with radical optimism,richness and deep respect for each.other. Great seeing souls interact and connect so organically. Thank you, loved this❤

[@MikeMusicandMotivation]

Finally Dua is on Q

[@JordanjamesX]

This is so nice CBC got this guy to interview Dua Lipa a big star.

[@ryangregohara]

Heard of her lots but never heard here music. Great interview and lovely person…just downloaded her new album.

[@stellabellaable]

TODAY MY FIRST TIME HEARING ABOUT HER AND I HEARD ONE OF HER SONGS SHE IS ABSOLUTELY TALENTED GIRL .

[@RogerRFontaine]

great interview Tom, also enjoyed you taking about Dua with Heather Hiscox this morning. Dua is quite attractive and open in her disclosures.

[@Julien-ek9pt]

Dua lipa is the gorgeous woman in the world , she know what's she talking bout , she very smart woman, never second guess urself ur already spot on the money wit every u do n say proud of u!

[@melsyoutube]

this was such a good interview i wish they gave y’all an hour!!!

[@FLOWERRURURU]

I watched many of Dua’s interviews but this is definitely one of the best ❤️!!

[@weiner19]

This was a great interview. Not familiar with her music, but her honesty shines through!

[@juniorchavesopicassodeyahu988]

Dua is a breath of fresh air. I love my tf so much 💖💖

[@DavidSchultz-yj1ku]

At the end of the day, famous celebrities like Dua just want to be normal… They just want to have a normal day. Be treated like you’re just a normal person. And just escape. And have somebody just to hang out with and not go at you and ask you 1 million questions and treat you indifferent. And just accept you as who you are.. I think a lot of celebrities really want that in life. But they don’t get that because they are famous and they are loved and they are revered. It’s hard and stressful being famous. Your day is so full. You just need time to be yourself. Sometimes you need to find yourself be yourself. Don’t get caught up in what everybody else wants you to be. She is as real as it gets.. Very incredible, smart, beautiful, hard-working, independent woman. What is not to love about her.??🤷‍♂️🙇‍♂️ I wish I could find a woman like that.? sweep her off her feet and be the man forever for her..!!🙄🤦‍♂️😔💕💕💕💕💕

[@stevie8763]

We all have to think deeply and work hard all day in our jobs, so when opportunity presents, we like to relax. I would rather just enjoy watching and listening to Dua Lipa and other music, without having to get intense and having to think deeply about it. I watched her Glastonbury show, my 4 year old cocker spaniel and I sat and watched together, he and I both chilled enjoyed it without needing to think why.

[@aadasad2485]

My Therapy is to Listen to You , Dua, explaining facts in Life and Watching and Listening Your Performances on Stage. Experience gives Facts and A Lot of Experience gives A Lot Of Facts. I guess You know I Love You by now. Love doesn’t go away (Houdini). Eternal Love! Te dua Dua!😘😘😘🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️😎🇫🇮

[@JeiElRai]

Two people who know how to take a compliment! ❤

[@patriciajohnson7397]

Tom is the best interviewer in the bus, hands down!😊

[@888alp]

Dua is an expressive woman says it from her heart. Talented as well. Lots of love my fellow leo ♌️♌️😘😆🩵

[@riaaapratiwi7892]

She is truly a Leo girl who knows how to have fun and goes deep.

[@michaelgallegos8811]

That was great interview i was glued to everyword spoken amazing and heart felt glad I saw this ❤️ 👏.

[@teresafarmer3878]

That's called perspective and we gain that from reflection.

[@angelcastillo2531]

Really great interview, Imma huge fan of hers, I've seen lots of interviews with this new era, and this guy really gets to talk with her and makes her feel so comfortable to keep sharing about her process and personal life. Thank you Tom.

[@charmaineweerakkody6977]

A perfect conversation. Does not feel like an interview. ❤

[@HulusiOzdemir-vj7dn]

The very beautiful Dua Lipa. Congratulations on another successful album.

[@juliebaxter00]

Her song "Dance the Night Away" is like a breath of fresh fun air!❤ I grew up in dance and music moves my soul. It's such a vibe! I just smile ear to ear and crank it up when it comes on! She's such a lovely brilliant creative soul❤ I'm glad I lived in a time to get to experience such a wide swath of music from Ms. Lipa to Tibetan throat singing to bard/ pirate songs remixes on Tik Tok to Dolly Parton to Beethoven!❤

[@uneti463]

“Violently happy” That’s the exact meaning, and honestly, that is a battle we struggle with daily, and very little or at all is talked abt! Thank you Dua

[@JENNIFERBOO]

She’s basically a disco star in 2024. The end 💃🪩🕺

[@ksmit0111]

Great interview, Dua is wise beyond her years I think. Fabulous talent and just I think a overall very nice person. I'm 65 years old and I have a few friends that have not grasped some of the realities of life that Dua seems to kinda get. Just a beautiful person inside and out.

[@behari777]

Go on girl Radical Optimism is the way ❤

[@Pis-N-Vnegr108]

I barely just found this artist after looking for Chris Stapleton on KZbin. I just love her. I have two young women/ daughters, beautiful, intelligent women. My eldest keeps attracting jerks who treat her so bad. She doesn’t talk to me until afterwards, probably because I would go into protection mode and it would not be good. Maybe this album will help explain what I can’t when it comes to finding the one on this journey through life. So many lessons to be learned. I downloaded her album which, if it’s anything like her, it will be extraordinary.

[@erikamigone3251]

Beautifull interview....I liked her then now I like her more...behind that beauty is this smart talented educated little girl living her dream that I love so much...they say that in the world u have a double...for sure I dont look like her and theirs some age difference but men we have a lot of thing in common ....keep shinning hermosa 🌟💖 In here i write...1 day ill be dancing somewhere in the world with her....💃💃😉😉

[@johnbartlett9568]

If you watch and carefully listen to interviews with Robert Plant and compare them to interviews like this with Dua.... You will get a sense of the intelligence of the British. Dua Lipa is Albanian. But British. She is very intelligent and would have been an Oxford student or Ivy League Student if God didn't make her a Singer. She has major class. I would be proud of her if she was my daughter.

[@dhrubaintisher8169]

I am not a Dua Lipa fan ( I frequently trash her music on social media), but this woman might be the most genuinely eloquent pop artist I've ever come across. How I would describe her would be "the zeitgeist of sagacity" in the realm of modern pop culture. And big props to Tom Power (assuming that's his name) for making this feel like such a diplomatic interview, I am tired of the others who make things all about pop culture, trying to be hip and cool and using colloquium that's way too much of a cliche. That Apple guy (can't remember his name) is a prime example of this platitude. On the contrary, someone could have told me that the History channel did a Dua Lipa interview and sent me this video and I'd fully believe it. Props to both of them. Very much enjoyed this.

[@globalcitizenn]

Why would you trash her music? She’s a brilliant songwriter.. it’s not easy to put melodies like that together.. she has a real gift & her voice is amazing.

[@DollyRanch]

@@globalcitizenn her sound has developed. I would say her previous records sounded like the result of a big label assembly line, multiple producers and songwriters, famous musician collaborations that she had no prior connection to etc... no real musical DNA.

[@ejhdbegbeidishdj9358]

“I frequently trash her music on social media” lmao why would you go out of your way to be so negative? What’s wrong with you?

[@plushiecotton]

I enjoyed this intervew better than the one with zane. tom you are a legend

[@tuma0000]

Wow, It’s the best interview for Dua I ever saw, intelligent Questions and I get to know Tom, how nice? Thanks I enjoyed a lot 🙏🏻✨

[@ckaufman5524]

I love herrrrr she’s so sweet & appreciates her fans

[@CoudyCanvas]

If you are good enough I will stay else we should know when to leave! Feel worth for what you deserve to get! All her songs have strong message!

[@Astrongaverage]

Dua Lipa is very talented singer

[@stevendiblasio3573]

Fabulous voice and down to earth nice person! All the success in the world to you! I am an old school rocker and you bring such a fresh sound and vibe to your music.Who would have thought an old guy like me would love this music you make!

[@lolipoable]

Great interview and love Dua, I really believe one day when she will musically matured she is going to be one of the best signers of all time. Saying that, I stopped following her on instagram during covid lockdown in the UK, while we were in lockdown she was posting photos of her and her boyfriend at the time while holiday. Saying now that she also was closed at home for two years is not fair

[@thegoodlife5205]

Radical optimism has its place, but in my experience it forgets the importance of dealing with negative past events. We cannot go backwards in time, but we can always try our best to improve it.

[@uneti463]

she said “viopently happy” which to me means that you make a choice, you choose happiness over everything past an present!

[@DaveWoodring-c7l]

[@michaelgreene4816]

What you mean is Tom is good at flirting without making it look creepy.

[@MissusChanandlerBong]

It's so weird to hear her say she's very open in public about her life when I know absolutely nothing about her life😂

[@uneti463]

whats there to know? She spends time with fmaily and friends, openly, parties woth her parents, always says, always tells where she comes from and thingns she cares abt, whats more to life? sje aint an agent! All i mentioned, she shares openly in social media. Her dates? sje doesnt hide then either, she has fun at the moment, and expresses it openly. She is a happy opened person.

[@MissusChanandlerBong]

@@uneti463 she's more closed off than other pop singers in the US... maybe she's more known in the UK & Europe .... 🤷‍♀️

Quick Captain Dua Lipa, raise the reality distortion field! We wouldn't want any other genre of music to be as popular as pop! So named because it is POPular. I checked the billboards and it seems that POPular music is still pop.

[@teresafarmer3878]

Very profound.

[@furryangels1814]

Dear Dua, you absolutely have to have your own movie. A musical featuring YOU of course. But definitely NOT another "Star is born" movie. I've got a whole script for you. Synopsis : Dua Lipa meets Daisy Jones and The Six. A fund raising concert venue featuring you as the headliner. Daisy Jones and the Six pick up where the series left off. They announce that they're reuniting and will be performing at this same venue. You're in your dressing room getting ready but the air conditioning doesn't work so they move you to the dressing room next to yours. This is Billy Dunne's but he's on stage now so you can use it. While this is happening we hear the music of Daisy Jones and The Six performing on stage. Their set ends and Billy comes barging in and there you are half naked. YES, we see some skin (enough so viewers get instantly hooked and this ain't a kid movie.). Billy apologized. He didn't know you were in his room. But he's staying there and watching you get dressed with a smirk on his face and wandering eye. You notice and say "Darling! Like what you see?" He replies: Indeed! You admire his bravado and there's instant chemistry. He offers to zip you up while walking toward you and doesn't wait for your answer. He proceed to zip you up but he put his index finger in the middle of the zipper and brushes your skin from your lower back all the way up to your neck . Sparks flies but you keep your cool. Billy had put on some fragrance before he went on stage and his sweat had enhance the aroma and being that closed to you, you couldn't help but having a nose full of it. It's one of your favorite but you say teasingly " Whoa! Did you drop your bottle of parfum on you there, darling? ... And you're off to go do your set. There will be more encounters with the two of you. A secret passionate love affair will develop. Billy struggles to break it off with Daisy because of her ongoing alcohol abuse. This love story will follow in the foot steps of your lyrics and songs that you'll be performing during the movie (Whatcha doing?) There's a part of me that want to steal your heart and a part that tells me Don't!). Love again, levitating, Illusion etc After much trial and tribulation, Dua ask Billy to profess his love for her in a big way. She wants him to come on stage with her and sing her favorite duet "Think I'm in Love with You". Crowd goes wild when they end the song with a long passionate kiss. Roll credits with "End of an era" playing. Contact me if you want the rest of the script. Thanks. I've got a whole script for you. Synopsis : Dua Lipa meets Daisy Jones and The Six.

Psychedelic? Weird? Er, what? There’s nothing psychedelic or weird about this album. It’s straight-down-the-line pop - and that’s fine - but it ain’t psychedelic or weird.

[@KYLETISZAI]

Literally

[@PedroGrabar]

I’m super confused with the way she markets this album and has been doing for months now. I hear hints of psychodelic and signature Tame Impala sounds in Houdini and Training Season but besides that and maybe a few little sounds here and there in other two or three tracks, it’s very sweet, spring-summer love album, kind of in the vein of 2000s Kylie Minogue. It’s baffling really…
