Before signing her record deal, Dua Lipa worked a variety of everyday jobs, including retail roles and a stint as a hostess at a Mexican restaurant in Soho. She also worked as a nightclub gatekeeper in Mayfair. Her music journey took off in 2014 when she signed with Warner Bros. Records UK. She released her debut single, New Love, in 2015, followed by her self-titled album in 2017 and her critically acclaimed 2020 album, Future Nostalgia.
Her Future Nostalgia tour was a significant milestone, grossing over $40 million in North America alone. Billboard reported that this tour sold 394,000 tickets during its initial leg and her earnings per show surged by 1,479%.
However, Dua Lipa’s earnings aren’t just from her music and tours. She has also scored numerous brand partnerships. She is the face of YSL’s Libre fragrance and also collaborated with brands like Evian and Puma. Currently, Dua is basking in the success of her third album, Radical Optimism. The record features chart-topping tracks like Houdini, Training Season, and Illusion.
This hustle has transformed her into one of pop’s wealthiest stars. Back in 2017, Celebrity Net Worth estimated her worth at a modest $3 million. By 2019, it had doubled to $6 million. Fast forward to 2020, and it hit $16 million before climbing to $25 million in 2021. Now her net worth stands at $35 million.
Dua’s latest Radical Optimism Tour, which began earlier this month in Singapore, has audiences across Asia spellbound. The tour has now brought her back to India for the Zomato Feeding India Concert on November 30 at the MMRDA Grounds in Mumbai.
