Does Dua Lipa support the LGBT community?
While her sexual orientation is straight, the singer has time and again made it clear that she supports the LGBTQIA+ Community. In fact the One Kiss singer distaste those who are against the idea of this community. During an interview with Vogue France, Dua Lipa shared her views about women and the LGBTQ community facing trouble.
Lipa said, “Homophobia and transphobia are close to misogyny.” She added, “A lot of people, deep down, are just afraid of themselves. The freedom of others confronts them with what they do not have the courage to express. The beauty of a free, true, and proud being paralyzes them.”
Lipa also shared her views about modern-day misogyny amid the #MeToo movement. The singer said, “The guys are more attentive. Maybe they’re just afraid of being accused one day, but I still feel like a lot of people realize that structures of domination have been in place for ages. She also said, “And this observation can change things. So we’re going in the right direction, even if there’s still a lot of work to do.”
Is Dua Lipa a feminist?
Yes, Dua Lipa is a feminist as she makes sure that she speaks about women's rights through her songs. In 2012, the singer received heavy backlash after she and fellow singer Lizzo were spotted at a strip club after the Grammys. Netizens began taking jabs at the singer for “exploiting women” and being “anti-feminist” after a photo of her throwing money over women and putting notes in dancers’ underwear made rounds on the internet.
They also began trending #dualipaisoverparty against the singer on Twitter. Rather than sitting silent about it, during an interview with Rolling Stone, the New Rules singer came up with a strong comeback against the backlash. Dua Lipa said, “I just feel like, if you’re a feminist, you have to also support women in all fields of work.”
Lipa also added, “We have to support sex workers, we have to believe that that [work] is their choice and their right. It seems quite hypocritical, I think, people picking and choosing as to how they want to support women and when it suits them. That’s another form of misogyny, which really derives from the male gaze.”
