Sa është pasuria e Dua Lipës?

Since debuting her first song in 2015, Albanian singer Dua Lipa's career has been an ever-growing trajectory, filled with impressive achievements and high-profile awards.

We're not just talking about radio hits, but a real cultural impact that has led him to collect three Grammy Awards, six Brit Awards, two Billboard Music Awards and even two Guinness World Records: one in 2020 for the highest number of tickets sold for a live streaming concert by a solo artist, and another in 2021 for the highest number of monthly listeners on Spotify for a female artist that year. But how much is his net worth and how much does he earn from his music?

Her impeccable, elegant and always modern style, which makes her showcase personalized creations from fashion houses such as Versace and Schiaparelli, does not materialize out of nowhere. Behind this well-curated image hides a solid net worth, valued at around $35 million.

An extraordinary figure, of course, but built with perseverance and talent in less than a decade. But how did Dua Lipa manage to reach such financial levels?

From humble beginnings to musical fame

Before signing her first record contract, Dua Lipa's life was filled with mundane work and, as she admitted herself, not particularly lucrative.

She worked in retail as a shop assistant, as a hostess at the Mexican restaurant La Bodega Negra in Soho, and even as a doorkeeper at a nightclub in Mayfair.

She remembers the last experience as "terrible" and "not at all pleasant", as she herself admitted in an interview with the Evening Standard in 2016, because she found herself forced to reject people, including her friends, for banal reasons, such as wearing sneakers.

An explosive music career

The signing of the contract with Warner Bros. Records UK in 2014 marked the beginning of a new phase. The following year, in 2015, his debut single, "New Love", was released, which preceded the release of the album of the same name in 2017, a work that immediately received warm reviews from specialist critics.

However, it is the second album, "Future Nostalgia", released in 2020, that gives a real boost to his artistic career.

Not only did this album surpass its predecessor in terms of critical acclaim, but its lead track, "Don't Start Now," also reached number two on the prestigious Billboard charts, establishing itself as its biggest commercial triumph in the United States to date.

Her influence and presence on the charts is further reinforced by five other songs from the same album. To this are added several collaborations with great echoes, including her entry into the world of cinema with a song for the soundtrack of the film "Barbie", a film in which she also appears as a performer.

Her most recent work, her third album titled "Radical Optimism," continued on this path of success, spawning highly-influential songs such as "Houdini," "Training Season," and "Illusion," which forcefully reaffirmed her role as an undisputed protagonist on the contemporary pop scene.

While her music has climbed the top charts, "Future Nostalgia Tour" has taken its earnings to a whole new level. The tour has grossed over $40 million in the United States and Canada alone.

According to Billboard, the first leg of the tour sold 394,000 tickets, a 346% increase compared to the tour of her debut album.

Gross revenue per show was also much higher, reaching a staggering 1,479%. Simply put: staggering figures were achieved.

In addition to her direct income from her music and tours, Dua Lipa has cultivated a lucrative activity as a supporter of some of the most prestigious brands in the world.

She is the face of Yves Saint Laurent's Libre fragrance and has collaborated with Evian and Puma.

As if that wasn't enough, she signed three more collections for Pepe Jeans and launched the "La Vacanza" collection in collaboration with Donatella Versace.

According to Celebrity Net Worth estimates, all this hard work and undeniable talent have paid off: Dua Lipa's net worth, as already mentioned, is $35 million.
