From the songs she played to her very special guest, we look at the pop princess’s amazing Glasto performance
The Dua Lipa Glastonbury headline performance has been much talked about - with the singer lauded for a stellar performance of her shiny pop anthems.
Taking to the Pyramid Stage on Friday night at the festival, attended by 210,000 people, Dua’s performance followed LCD Soundsystem - seven years after she last played Glasto.
The Albanian-British singer burst onto the stage, following the famous soundbite of Peter Fonda in the 1966 film ‘The Wild Angels’ saying that he wants to “get loaded and have a good time”.
Wearing a leather corset and fishnet tights, Dua looked every inch the pop star - and went on to have a further four outfit changes throughout her set. And when she started to belt out her hits, the crowd loved it.
In this blog, we’ll take a look at the best moments from Dua’s performance. We also look at what we know about the huge Wembley show she's confirmed to play next summer.

Rocking the Pyramid Stage, Dua’s show consisted of three sets, plus an encore.
She opened with ‘Training Season’, her second-to-last single from her newest album ‘Radical Optimism’.
She then launched into her Calvin Harris-produced mega-hit, ‘One Kiss’, before performing more of her slick pop songs, including fan favourites like ‘Levitating’ and ‘Be the One’.
In between songs, Dua revealed that her headline slot at Glastonbury was actually something that she manifested when she was a child.
She told the crowd that she wrote down her desire to play the festival, including the fact that she wanted to perform on the Friday night so that she “could spend the rest of the weekend partying”. Of course, the crowd loved this.
Other highlights of the show were the emotional ‘Be the One’, as well as the sparkly, disco-tinged hit ‘Hallucinate’. For her finale, Dua sang recent hit ‘Houdini’. The pop star’s slick and polished set went down a treat with the crowd - you’d never have guessed that was Dua’s first time headlining the legendary Pyramid Stage.
