When Dua Lipa showed up at the NRJ radio studio in Paris on Sunday morning, she cut an edgy figure.

The 28-year-old pop sensation looked amazing in the laid-back ensemble, which included a slim-fitting blue denim mom jeans and a black graphic T-shirt.

She wore a stylish black leather jacket over the suit and wore black heels to elongate her body.

The Dance The Night hitmaker added even more jewelry to her half-up, half-down red wig by wearing a statement set of silver earrings.

Radical Optimism, her third studio album, was published on May 3. It is her first full-length studio album to be released in four years, having not been released since 2020’s Future Nostalgia.

When Dua Lipa arrived to the NRJ radio studio in Paris on Sunday morning, she cut an edgy figure.

The 28-year-old pop diva looked amazing in the relaxed ensemble, which included blue denim mom jeans and a black graphic T-shirt.

The stunning woman also used Instagram to inform her followers that earlier this week Radical Optimism rose to the top of the Official Charts as the album to listen to.

It follows Dua’s announcement earlier this month that her ascent to fame has not been smooth, as she talked to Apple about her struggles with celebrity and how she handles offensive remarks.

The singer, who is 28 years old, spoke with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1 about her most recent phase and body of music, Radical Optimism.

Discussing her newfound confidence, the Houdini singer recalled: ‘Finally, I’m at a place in my career where I feel really confident. It took me so long to get to this place.

‘We’re doing the tell-all. This is my first time talking about anything, the album title, the record, and the songs individually.

She goes on to admit to Zane that writing songs is also a form of therapy for her ‘By writing these songs, it’s a form of therapy for me.

‘It’s just such a vulnerable thing to do, to write your thoughts down into melody, and then have it be consumed by other people.

The pop icon also revealed that she knew what the title of her album was going to be from the very beginning.

‘I knew the title for ‘Radical Optimism’. It was a term that my friend told me, I was doing an interview with him, and he was like, “You know what the world needs? Is radical optimism.”

Her third studio album Radical Optimism was released on 3 May and it is her first full-length studio album release in four years since Future Nostalgia which was released in 2020

And the beauty took to her Instagram earlier this week to reveal to her fans that Radical Optimism became the number 1 album to listen to on the charts

‘And I lived with that thought for so long, and it just became more and more prevalent as time went on.’

The beauty continued to touch on how she has dealt with an enormous amount of criticism since she found fame.

‘I think everything comes in stages and waves. There can be a moment where people really love you and you feel so supported and you’re like, oh, this is great.

‘Especially in the beginning. I was doing interviews and people were like, “How do you deal with hate?” And I’m like, “I don’t get any hate. It’s great.”

‘Then that changed really quickly and I remember even when it was Grammys’ best new artist nomination and I’d won it, there were people online being like, she’s not deserving of it.

‘She’s got no stage presence. She can’t do this. She’s not well-equipped to, she won’t be here next year.

‘There was a lot of that. That fueled me in a way. I try and not use criticism as this revenge.

‘So I think whenever I see or feel or read anything that goes against what I know is coming, or what I’ve been doing, or how hard I’ve been working or whatever it is, I just kind of take a step back and I just go, okay, all of this is background noise and I should just stick on my path.

‘Because every time someone has doubted me, I’ve proved them wrong.

‘And for me, I’m like, this is fuelling me. This is pushing me to be better, to work hard. And I get a real kick out of proving people wrong.

Dua went on to reveal her struggle with finding her voice as she grew within the industry.

She revealed: ‘I never thought of the idea of being famous. So it is interesting. As I’m growing in the industry and seeing the different sides of it like, “Okay, what things do I keep for myself? What things do I put out?” It’s a writer’s dilemma.

It comes after Dua revealed earlier this month that her rise to stardom over the years has not been easy as she discussed with Apple her dilemmas with fame and how she deals with hateful comments

‘In some ways, I had no inhibitions. I was jumping in and experimenting and trying something new. In some ways, I was really scared to…

‘Or it just took me a while to find my voice, to write things that were personal to me, but always in code, never fully wanting to put myself out there just because I felt like I needed to keep something for myself.

She also added that with her latest album, she has managed to be more ‘honest’ and ‘open’ in a way she’s never been before.

She revealed: ‘With this album, I feel like I’ve managed to put so much more honesty out there and be really open in a way that I don’t think I’ve ever had the chance to.

‘Every single song that’s on the album, I’ve gone back in and I’ve rewritten it and changed it, and my perspective has changed and my story has changed.

‘The way that I saw different scenarios or different things that happened in my life shifted and it was a beautiful experience to not be afraid to be like, “Actually, you know what? I am willing to put this out there.”
