THE 2024 Grammys launched into high gear with a mesmerising opening performance by none other than pop sensation Dua Lipa.
With an electrifying debut of her latest track Training Season Lipa set the stage on fire before seamlessly transitioning into a captivating rendition of her recent psychedelic-infused single Houdini.
But Lipa was not content with just delivering a standard performance. With a touch of whimsy, she wove in a brief snippet from her Grammy-nominated Barbie anthem Dance the Night between the two powerhouse performances.
This unexpected twist left the audience in awe and underscored Lipa’s versatility as an artiste.
Decked out in all-black attire, complemented by striking red hair, Lipa commanded the stage with her trademark confidence and charisma.
As she danced around a large cage, her energy was palpable and she effortlessly dropped to the floor during the electrifying guitar riff in Houdini leaving the audience captivated by her every move.
The inclusion of Dance the Night in her performance was a nod to its recent success and critical acclaim.
Garnering two Grammy nominations, the track further solidified Lipa’s status as one of the hottest properties in pop music today.
Before its official release last week, Lipa tantalised fans with a sneak peek of Training Season on social media. The track serves as a tantalising glimpse into her highly anticipated third studio album, the release date of which is still shrouded in mystery.
While Dance the Night may have missed out on the Best Original Song for a Motion Picture award at the Golden Globes, losing to Billie Eilish and Finneas, its continued recognition at prestigious events like the Grammys underscores its enduring impact and appeal.
Lipa continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the world of pop music.
