Dua Lipa: awkward host or prophet?


Having your embarrassing moment caught on camera and seen by everyone is something you’ll carry for the rest of your life. No amount of money or investments can make your video clip go away, even if you’re Dua Lipa. In August of last year, she hosted an episode of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon with Gwen Stefani as her celebrity guest. When they arrived on the topic of quarantine, the Don’t Start Now singer mistakenly referred to Stefani’s partner, Blake Shelton, as her husband.

You could clearly see the distress and shock in her eyes when Stefani corrected her and says, “Well, he’s not my husband.” Thankfully, the guest was quick on her toes and followed it up with, “But that sounded cool when you said that.” to avoid creating a bigger awkward moment for Lipa. She must have felt like an oracle now since the couple got engaged a few weeks later.
