Global pop icon Dua Lipa has reassured fans that her world tour will continue as planned, despite suffering a painful shoulder injury while in America.
The 29-year-old singer, currently mid-way through her Radical Optimism tour, was spotted with heavy bruising on her shoulder, sparking speculation among fans that she might have sustained a serious injury.
Pictures quickly circulated online, with fans questioning whether Dua would be able to carry on performing her high-energy shows, known for their intricate choreography and intense staging.
However, according to reports, the star was checked over by a radiologist and has been given the green light to continue with her packed tour schedule.
How the injury happened
It’s understood that the accident occurred during some rare downtime between performances rather than on stage. While details remain unclear, a source confirmed to The Sun that Dua had been in discomfort and required medical advice before she could return to rehearsals and live shows.
The insider explained: “The injury happened while Dua was enjoying some down time from her show. It’s been painful but after being checked over by a radiologist, she’s been given the all clear. The tour will still be going ahead as planned. It’s just one of those things.”
While the bruising may look alarming, fans can breathe a sigh of relief knowing it’s not serious enough to disrupt her tour plans.
Tour to ‘carry on without a hitch’
Dua Lipa’s Radical Optimism tour has already wowed audiences with sold-out shows across North America, and the singer is set to continue performing to massive crowds. The production features dazzling visuals, cutting-edge stage design, and a setlist packed with hits including Levitating, Don’t Start Now, and her latest singles.
Physio treatment is expected to form part of her routine in the coming weeks, ensuring her shoulder fully recovers while she continues to perform.
For fans, the news comes as a huge relief, as ticket demand for the tour has been unprecedented, with some venues selling out within minutes. The pop star’s ability to combine powerful vocals with polished choreography is one of the key reasons her live shows are so in-demand.
Fans rally behind Dua
Social media lit up with support after images of her shoulder injury began circulating. One fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter): “That bruise looks awful, hope she’s okay. Her health is more important than the shows.”
Another added: “Dua is such a trooper. The fact she’s pushing through just shows her dedication to fans.”
The reassurance that the tour is still going ahead will no doubt calm worries among her global fanbase, who had feared shows could be postponed or even cancelled.
Dua Lipa’s team has yet to release an official statement, but insiders insist there is “nothing to worry about” and that the singer is “more than ready” to keep the tour rolling.
With her next show scheduled for later this week, fans can expect Dua back on stage, delivering the same powerhouse performances that have cemented her as one of the world’s biggest pop stars.
