Dua Lipa’s New <i>Barbie</i> Song Is Fit for a Disco Dance Party

#Dua #Lipas #ltigtBarbieltigt #Song #Fit #Disco #Dance #Party

This Barbie is ready to party. Dua Lipa released “Dance the Night,” a new original song and lead single for the Barbie movie, and it’s a sparkling disco track that lives up to its title. If you’re a fan of her album Future Nostalgia (who wasn’t?), this will be right up your alley. You’ve probably already heard snippets of the song already from the trailers.

Lipa, who enchanted us with her dance-worthy 2020 album, is a perfect musical match for Barbie. The singer told Dazed that director Greta Gerwig said “that the whole film was inspired by disco. There’s a lot of very glittery and pop moments in it.” Just like Lipa’s signature sound.

In addition to providing music for the summer blockbuster, Lipa also appears in the film as Mermaid Barbie. She admits that Gerwig’s involvement is what drew her to the project. The director’s “films never really feel like the male gaze. They have very interesting female protagonists,” Lipa told Dazed.

And while the exact plot of Barbie remains secret—even its star, Margot Robbie, is only sharing minor details—Lipa briefly weighed in on what to expect from the film.

“Barbie, the doll, has this idea of what perfection should be,” she told the magazine. “The film–and there’s a lot of diversity in the cast–is touching exactly on the buttons that maybe it presses, and shows a different story.”

Many more tunes for Barbie are also on the way. Barbie the Album is dropping in July 21, the same day as the film, featuring original songs from artists like Nicki Minaj, Ava Max, Charli Xcx, Dominic Fike, Dua Lipa, Fifty Fifty, Gayle, Haim, Ice Spice, Kali, Karol G, Khalid, Lizzo, Pinkpantheress, Ryan Gosling, Tame Impala, and The Kid Laroi. And yes, that seems to mean Ryan Gosling is releasing his own Barbie song, too.

Before we can dive into the album, take a listen to “Dance the Night” and read the full lyrics below:

Baby you can
Find me under the lights
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up
Don’t you wanna just
Come along for the ride

Oh my outfit so tight
You can see my heart beat tonight
I can take the heat
Baby best believe
That’s the moment I shine

Cuz every romance
Shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn

When the nights here
I don’t do tears
Baby no chance

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place

Lately I’ve been
Moving close to the edge
Still be looking my best
I stay on the beat
You can count on me
I ain’t missing no steps

Cuz every romance
Shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn

When the nights here
I don’t do tears
Baby no chance

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place

When my heart breaks
You’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play safe
Don’t you know about me

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Even when the tears are flowing
They’re diamonds on my face
I’ll still keep the party going not one hair out of place
Even when the tears are flowing
They’re diamonds on my face
I’ll still keep the party going not one hair out of place

Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
My heart could be burning but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me, dance
Dance the night away
I’ll still keep the party running not one hair out of place

When my heart breaks
You’ll never see it, never see it
When my world shakes
I feel alive, I feel alive
I don’t play safe
Don’t you know about me

I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

Dance the night

Beyoncé Tosses Her Sunglasses to a Lucky Fan: "Still in Shock"

#Beyoncé #Tosses #Sunglasses #Lucky #Fan #quotStill #Shockquot

Beyoncé gave one fan an experience he’d never forget when she threw him the sunglasses off her face during her “Renaissance” World Tour concert in London. In a now-viral TikTok video, fans captured the exact moment she removed her Off-White sunglasses, which she paired with a red-sequined Off-White bodysuit and thigh-high boots, and threw them into the crowd — but only after pausing to check the brand, of course. The recipient? A TikTok user who goes by the name Global Valentino, aka Valentino Rodrigues.

“Best experience ever, this meant so much!”

“I’m 1 of 1,” Valentino captioned the video. “Me and @khal caught the glasses!! best experience ever, this meant so much!” The joy of catching one of the Grammy-winner’s personal accessories, however, was short-lived as security promptly came over and snatched the sunglasses back. As his friends tried to keep the glasses safe, the guards mouthed, “Stop! Stop!” and ultimately ended up walking away with the sunglasses.

Later in the evening, Beyoncé returned wearing a custom Loewe bodysuit in gold and smiled as she returned the sunglasses to Rodrigues. “No, seriously, I’m still in shock ’cause what the hell?” he told his TikTok followers in a video after the show. After sharing a glimpse of the sunglasses up close, Valentino explained that a piece had fallen off the side immediately after the show. Once they were fixed, he happily tried them on. “OK, so I’m never wearing these again, guys, but they fit,” he said in a follow-up video. Since the concert, Rodrigues has also updated his TikTok bio to read, “BEYONCÉ GAVE ME HER SHADES.”

In an interview with The Daily Dot, he added that the show was the “best night of my life.” The experience was made all the more special by the fact that the glasses were inscribed with the numbers 4-2.3 — likely an optometric measurement — because his birthday happens to be April 23, a noteworthy coincidence.

Though security tried to confiscate the glasses, Rodrigues didn’t let the moment spoil his experience, and he’s glad he was able to hang onto a memento from the unforgettable show. “I don’t know about you guys but I can’t see the haters,” he said with a laugh as he put on the glasses.

I Didn't See This Anti-Miniskirt Trend Coming—31 I'm Still in Shock Over

#Didn039t #AntiMiniskirt #Trend #Coming31 #I039m #Shock

As far as skirt trends go, this past year has undoubtedly been the year of maxi hemlines and micro minis. Midi skirts haven’t ever been “out,” but I did put them on the back burner momentarily. There’s always been a place for classic slip midis, but the more trend-forward and creative elements were always applied to the mini and maxi styles.  However, as I took a deep dive into the latest market for summer, I was surprised to see a large variety of updated and elevated midi skirts. Think cargo styles, airy linen options, and colorful wrap skirts.

For 2023, any skirt length goes, but these midi options will have you impressed. I’ve gathered a diverse selection of skirts, whether you’re into having an ultra-colorful summer or much prefer a more pared-back aesthetic this season. The best part about these skirts? You may be buying them for the summer, but I can assure you of their year-round versatility. Simply take them into the fall easily with tall boots and an oversize sweater. Keep scrolling to see and shop the best skirts on the market that haven’t sold out yet.
