Dua Lipa is at the peak of her career, not only in music but also branching out into other areas of the arts, such as acting, and will soon debut as the host of Saturday Night Live, the TV program that has been running since 1975.

Although this is her first time as the main host of an episode of the series, it will not be her first appearance as a musical guest, as she previously appeared on the episode aired on October 19, 2019.

There, she performed her songs “Don’t Start Now” and “Levitating”. Now she will be serving in both roles and will sing some of her latest hits, which belong to the album “Radical Optimism“, which premiered in 2024.
