Dua Lipa Glasto rehearsals in 'lockdown' after 'TikToker breaks in causing security alert'
Pop sensation Dua Lipa is all set to dazzle the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury this Friday night (24 June), in what's tipped to be an epic performance.
However, the Dance The Night songstress, 28, reportedly experienced an incident during her rehearsal sessions. A TikTok celebrity managed to breach the security of the Birmingham studio where Dua has been perfecting her routine.
The brazen intruder reportedly strolled onto the premises and attempted to enter the rehearsal area, an escapade they later flaunted on social media. This prompted Dua's security detail to immediately lock down the site and eject the trespasser.
Labelled as an "embarrassing" fiasco, the TikTok personality was promptly shown the door.
Revealing details of the incident, an insider reported: "Dua has been working so hard for the past few days to perfect her set for Glastonbury. Her team saw off this person when they arrived on site on Friday. They made a total p**t of themselves by trying to film and it was all rather embarrassing."
The source continued to The Sun: "Some of Dua's team spoke to them and asked them to clear off. She was inside so luckily missed all the hullabaloo. Nothing is going to knock her off course this weekend. Dua can't wait to show Glastonbury what she has been working on."
OK! contacted Dua's representatives for comment.
Dua has opened up about her aspirations from back in 2017 when she was working on her debut album, revealing she had just two major goals: to collaborate with Tame Impala and to headline Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage on a Friday night. She's already achieved the first, having worked with Tame Impala's Kevin Parker on her third album, Houdini.
Now, as she gears up for her Friday performance at Glastonbury, Dua promises a "high-intensity" show that's all about keeping the crowd dancing with "non-stop relentless fun".
She's aiming to deliver a set that's "All killer, no filler, that's the plan. I just want to keep people dancing, from the very first moment and make sure that's how they go into the rest of the night. Wherever that's going to take them... into the magical, magical land of Glastonbury."
The pop sensation has been gearing up for this moment for two years, specifically requesting the Friday night headline slot so she can let loose and enjoy the festival vibes afterwards.
Dua shared her excitement, saying: "I got asked to headline Glastonbury in November 2022. It was towards the end of my Future Nostalgia tour. I was ready. It feels reassuring to have a few songs under my belt that I think will really get people moving... I think everything happened for this moment at Glastonbury. I've just been dreaming about this my whole life."
