1. Lipa Said Elton Called Her When She Was Wearing a Cowboy Hat and Bikini

“It was kind of funny actually,” said Lipa. “Now, Elton and I we've done a couple things together. I also performed with him for his AIDS foundation, for the Oscars opening. And afterwards we had dinner in LA and then literally a couple days later, I've started writing for my new album. And, I was hanging out by the pool before going to do some writing and all of a sudden my phone rings and it's a FaceTime from Elton and his husband, David—casual." “As you do,” said Colbert. Lipa continued: “I mean, it's not that casual. I don't think it's casual. I was in my bikini and a cowboy hat. But I wouldn't have it any other way. It was perfect. And, they were just like, you know, we have this idea….” Read on....

“We'd love to have you on this song,” they told Lipa. “And immediately I was like, are you joking? I was like, of course, you know, I'd love to. ‘No, no, no, you have to listen to it first….We're gonna send it to you. And then afterwards, you let us know if you wanna do the song.’ And knowing already what I was gonna say. I'm like, absolutely. So I heard the song and it was a remix that PNAU did of "Rocket Man" and "Sacrifice." And immediately, I mean, I couldn't believe it. And it's, it's kind of crazy because I feel like I manifested this in a way.”

“'Rocket Man' is my driving song. It's my shower song. It's song that I sing along to myself really,” she said. “I like to sing along to it. I love the song I do too. And so when I got asked to sing that part, I was like, okay, this is, it was just meant to be.” “Elton I'm available too,” said Colbert. “I also know the lyrics to 'Rocket Man.'”

4. She Works Out Early in the Morning

How does she stay so fit? She works out early in the morning. “The Department of Health and Human Services recommends that healthy adults include aerobic activity and strength training in their fitness plans, specifically:

• At least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or an equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous aerobic activity
• Strength training exercises of all the major muscle groups at least twice a week,” says the Mayo Clinic, which adds: “Regular exercise can help you control your weight, reduce your risk of heart disease and certain cancers, and strengthen your bones and muscles.”

5. She Eats Right, Most of the Time

"I try and stay as healthy as possible whenever I can," she told The Urban List. “ I love cooking and being surrounded by my favorite people, though I also love ordering from the fantastic restaurants in my area — especially as there’s no indoor seating at the moment due to the pandemic. With all the running around I do for work, it’s nice to come home, slow down, and connect with the food that nourishes my body and life,” she told Refinery29.

Superstar Dua Lipa is still having the best summer vacation as she continues her travels across sunny coastal Europe—specifically Greece. Lipa, 27, shared stunning pictures of herself on a boat on the ocean, wearing a red one-piece swimsuit, a yellow bikini, and a plaid bikini with pink sarong. “Sailing through the Peloponnese ⚓️,” she captioned the post. How does the singer look so fit, happy, and glowing? Here are 5 ways she stays fit and beautiful.

1. Hot Yoga

Lipa loves hot yoga classes and mindfulness sessions. "On an off day—which is usually rare—I'd be at home in London and go to a hot yoga class first thing in the morning," she says. "Then there's a lovely brunch spot next to my yoga class where I get a smoothie and an English breakfast, which feels really comforting… That mindfulness practice is super important to me. Making sure I am healthy inside and out helps me stay on top of everything."

2. New Album In 2024

Lipa promises her next album—which will drop in 2024—will be her most personal yet, but on her own terms. “I think it’s a marketing tool: How confessional can you be?” she says about how other artists expose their personal lives. “I also don’t put so much of my life out there for people to dig into the music in this weird, analytical way.”

3. Skincare Basics

Lipa believes less is more when it comes to her skincare routine. "My skin gets really dry from traveling, and for a while, I tried so many products, and nothing made it better," she says. "When I am on holiday spending time in the sun, I don't really need to put on a ton of treatments and serums. I realized when I put less on my skin, and it's much better. We're conditioned to believe that we need to use 500 things when sometimes less is more."

4. Mixing Up Her Workouts

Lipa enjoys a variety of different workouts. “When I have a tiny bit more time on my side I love mixing up lots of different training, finding different workouts in whatever city I’m in, whether it’s yoga, Pilates, boxing or spinning,” she says. “Whatever it is, I try to change it up every day to keep things interesting. When you’re on a tour bus, every day and every place is different, so you never know what you’re going to find. That’s always one way to keep it interesting.”

5. Her Concealer Hack

Lipa recently realized she was applying concealer incorrectly for years. "What I’ve learned with concealer is that you have to dab it and not rub it — I feel like that’s the only way you can actually cover anything up is if you just keep dabbing, which is something I never knew," she says. "I was like, Why is this not covering anything? I had been rubbing it off instead of dabbing it on."

Dua Lipa is celebrating her sister Rina’s birthday. She posted a series of photos of the two of them on Instagram. In one photo, the sisters posed by the pool in bikinis. Their incredible figures and flat abs were on full display. Lipa captioned the post, “Happy birthday to my main squeeze! The light of my life! My sister @rinalipa, I love you, I love you, I love you!” How does she stay so fit?

Lipa has amazing skin. She revealed some of her tips to Vogue. She says that she always remembers to take makeup off. “I have to take my make-up off. It’s a very rare occasion where I just fall asleep with it on. When I was younger I never used to care. I was the kind of person that would just wash my face with soap and call it a day. But when I turned 18, I started really taking care of my skin and being really gentle. Now I use a lot of serums: I have one that I put on before I go to bed, and a different one for the morning that I use after a skin cleanser to take off any make-up.”

2. She Gets Facials

Lipa went through her day in an interview with Refinery29. She says that one thing she does to stay in shape is go on walks with her dogs. “I got really lucky that he and I have the same sleep schedule,” she says. “If I need to catch a couple extra hours of sleep he’s right there with me, but on days when I’m up bright and early, he’s ready for his morning walk. Our walks are the perfect way to get my mind right for the day ahead. I usually grab a bottle of Evian — gotta stay hydrated — and his leash and we head out for a stroll around the neighborhood. While walking, I make a mental list of my intentions for the day.”

5. She Does A Variety Of Workouts

Lipa tells Marie Claire that she likes to do a variety of different workouts to stay in shape. “When I have a tiny bit more time on my side I love mixing up lots of different training, finding different workouts in whatever city I’m in, whether it’s yoga, Pilates, boxing or spinning. Whatever it is, I try to change it up every day to keep things interesting. When you’re on a tour bus, every day and every place is different, so you never know what you’re going to find.

"I love boxing in my spare time. I like doing it for fitness [and] I like doing it just to kinda clear my mind. I really enjoy it. I like that it's definitely a full body workout.
