Kevin Parker rejoins Dua Lipa to close Glastonbury set after surprise collab

Kevin Parker rejoins Dua Lipa to close Glastonbury set after surprise collab

The Dua Lipa/Kevin Parker era is here

I imagine pop sensation Dua Lipa and Tame Impala frontman Kevin Parker probably wasn't on your 2024 bingo card, but never underestimate the power of Glastonbury.

Earlier on in the night, the 'One Kiss' hitmaker shocked music fans with the unexpected decision to duet Tame Impala's hit song 'The Less I Know The Better' on the Pyramid Stage tonight.

However the singer was keen to get her money's worth from the guest appearance, with Kevin later joining her on stage to close out the set with a performance of lead Radical Optimism single 'Houdini'.

Kevin used the encore to showcase his skills on the guitar, playing a 'Houdini' riff while Dua was flanked by her back-up dancers - ending the night with the perfect ode to their collaboration on her most recent album.

The 28-year-old’s triumphant return to Glastonbury went down a treat with fans, with many viewers taking to social media to share their delight at the show.

"Dua Lipa is absolutely smashing it. Proper proper Pyramid headline slot, this," one person wrote.

"Dua Lipa is a proper pop star, isn’t she," a second added.

The ‘Levitating’ singer last appeared at back in Glastonbury in 2017, with crowds bulging out of the John Peel Tent as they hoped to catch a glimpse of her. Considering that her celebrity status has risen astronomically in the years since thanks to a Grammy Award and acting debut, the Pyramid Stage is the perfect setting for her to stage return.

"Oh man, this is a massive dream come true for me," Dua told fans during the performance, adding that she had 'dreamt' of this her whole life.

She added: "When I wrote it down I was very specific. I wrote that I want to headline the Pyramid Stage on Friday night so that I can party for the next two nights on the best place on Earth."
