Dua Lipa, the pop sensation behind hit songs like "Don't Start Now," recently shared an unexpected challenge she faced during her Future Nostalgia tour. In an interview with Sirius XM's The Morning Mash Up, Lipa revealed that she was forced to change the choreography after slipping on a dancer's sweat puddle not once, but twice during performances in Barcelona and Milan.

"Some of my dancers were just sweating a little bit extra," Lipa explained, attributing the mishap to the unusually hot weather in Europe at the time. 

Lipa, ever the professional, took the incident in stride, noting that such accidents are "all part of the experience" of touring. "You got to get a little bruised," she added.

The singer, who recently released her third studio album, Radical Optimism, is set to embark on a new tour starting in June. 

Lipa has shared insights into the creative process behind Radical Optimism, revealing that she explored genres like psychedelia, trip hop, and Britpop while working on the album. She also disclosed that she wrote a staggering 97 songs for the project, all documented in a notebook purchased from CVS.

Fans can catch Lipa on her Radical Optimism tour, kicking off in Berlin on June 5th, followed by shows in Lisbon, Madrid, London, and other major cities.
