Pop superstar Dua Lipa has kicked off her Radical Optimism Tour just a few weeks ahead of her Glastonbury Festival headline slot, but fans are confused by the setlist.One month after the release of her chart-topping third studio album Radical Optimism, the pop star, actress, and holiday advocate is back on the road again, with her latest tour beginning in Berlin, Germany last night (5 June).While Lipa launched her set with a fiery performance of Radical Optimism single “Training Season”, flanked by a handful of beefy backing dancers, the track is just one of a few from the album to actually make the setlist.Across 17 songs in the show, the 28-year-old Barbie star performs just five tracks from her latest album, including lead single “Houdini” and latest single “Illusion”.It’s her second album, the Grammy and Brit award-winning Future Nostalgia, that gets most of the air time, with the LGBTQ+ ally singing seven of the record’s 11 tracks.Though Future Nostalgia received higher critical praise than Radical Optimism, fans are a little perplexed by Lipa’s setlist choices, given the name of the tour.Specifically, fans are demanding the singer add Radical Optimism tracks “French Exit”, “Watcha Doing” and “End Of An Era” to the setlist with immediate effect.

Lady Gaga would like to redirect your attention from speculating about future baby monsters to the importance of voting.The pop superstar adeptly took on false chatter she is pregnant with a TikTok that borrowed from another famous singer.Gaga uses a voiceover clip in which a person says, “I don’t have to find an aesthetic. I am an aesthetic. I mean, I’m sure there’s somebody out here right now who’s going into Pinterest trying to type all these adjectives to describe me.”“Not pregnant–just down bad cryin at the gym,” is written over the video.That’s a line from Taylor Swift’s single “Down Bad,” which is featured on “The Tortured Poets Department.”Swift took noticed and responded in the comments.“Can we all agree that it’s invasive & irresponsible to comment on a woman’s body,” Swift wrote. “Gaga doesn’t owe anyone an explanation & neither does any woman.”Gaga called upon viewers of her TikTok to register to vote on the website, headcount.org.The singer’s concert film “Chromatica World Tour” recently debuted on HBO. Gaga teased her forthcoming seventh album at the end of the movie.

Sabrina Carpenter has been called out for her new album cover, with several people accusing her of taking a little too much inspiration from a years-old photo shoot in a French magazine.On June 3, the 25-year-old pop star shared on social media that her new album, Short n’ Sweet, would be released on August 23. Alongside the announcement, she included a picture of the cover art, which shows her looking over her bare shoulder that’s been marked with a lipstick kiss.Social media users pointed out that Carpenter’s photo bears an undeniable resemblance to a spread featuring French model Tiffany Collier, in which she is also looking over her bare shoulder with the same lipstick kiss stamp.Collier had originally posted the image on Instagram in Feburary 2018, writing: “Happy Valentine’s Day.” She had also tagged the photographer Bruno Juminer.While the “Espresso” singer’s post has garnered a lot of excitement from fans, there have also been a number of people criticizing Carpenter for not giving credit to the original photo.
