Dua Lipa: Studio 2054 live stream review – perfect escapist pop

The singer's online show had a charming Top of the Pops vibe despite its - often star-studded - shortcomings

Of all the high-profile live streams that have sprung up in lieu of actual gigs in recent months, Dua Lipa's is, by some considerable distance, the most star-studded. Its list of special guests encompasses everyone from Elton John to FKA twigs to Kylie Minogue: proof, should you need it, of the dominant position the 25-year-old singer currently occupies in pop.

By common consent, 2020 has been her year, thanks to her second album, Future Nostalgia, which has earned her six Grammy nominations and spawned a succession of global hit singles: the kind of success that even Madonna wants to get involved in, making an appearance on a remix of the single Levitation.
