Dua Lipa sends fans wild as she welcomes Charli XCX as a surprise guest during her second night at Wembley - after gushing she's 'fulfilled her dream' with London shows
Dua Lipa set Wembley alight as she shocked fans by bringing Charli XCX out as her special guest during the second night of her sold-out stadium show on Saturday.
The 29-year-old pop star thrilled the roaring crowd of 70,000 when she introduced the British pop sensation, 32, with a cheeky shoutout.
She said: 'So this next song, I thought I'd bring a friend out. Let me tell you, she is the biggest brat. Give it up for Charli XCX!'
The pair then tore into Charli's infectious hit '360,' sending the energy through the roof as fans went wild for the unforgettable surprise duet.
Throughout the night, Dua once again stunned in an array of dazzling outfits as she performed on the UK stage.
Just the day before, she made an emotional arrival on stage as she broke down in tears while performing her first ever show at Wembley, thanking her fans for their support.
Kicking off the first of her two nights at the venue, Dua then surprised her fans when she was joined by special guest Jamiroquai.
Performing a number of her hits, she looked incredible in an embellished one-piece that she teamed with fishnet stockings.
Dua completed her outfit with a pair of glittery knee-high heeled boots and a statement necklace, before also rocked a white lace jumpsuit for another bold look.
She then slipped into a completely sheer blue gown with a thigh-high split, which she wore over matching underwear and teamed with stockings.
The Be The One hitmaker added to her frame in chunky heels as she belted out her best-known hits, including One Kiss, Levitating, Training Season and Maria.
She then brought out Jamiroquai, real name Jay Kay, as her surprise act of the evening as the 90s star, who is best known for hits Virtual Insanity and Cosmic Girl, joined her for one song.
Bringing him out on stage, Dua gushed: 'This is someone who really inspired me when I first started out.
'Someone who I feel like is a massive trailblazer in music and has kind of paved the way.'
No stranger to showing off her toned figure, Due slipped into a daring black leather corset and boots as she graced the Wembley stage for the second night in a row

She added: 'I feel so lucky to share this stage with the one of one, the only, give it up for Jamiroquai!'
American singer Dove Cameron and English singer-songwriter Alessi Rose were the support acts took to the stage once again on the second night.
Without missing her biggest hits, the British-Albanian songstress performed the likes of New Rules, Be The One and Barbie's Dance.
Transforming the stadium into her own dance floor, Dua kicked off her concert with Training Season before pausing to say she was 'blown away,' and that it was 'surreal' to be performing at Wembley.
She said: 'This is so surreal and so crazy. It means the absolute world to me that you are here tonight.
'It feels really really special to be here tonight. It is 10 years since our first ever London show to about 350 people and I just dreamt of a night like this where I get to be in front of 70,000 people.'
After taking photos with the front row fans, Dua returned to the stage to perform These Walls before introducing the song that 'started everything'.
She said: 'I want to take it back to the beginning a little bit. This song really kind of changed my life.'
The singer added: 'This is the song that got me signed and it's the song that started everything and I feel like with weather like this, there is only one song that I could do. This is Hotter Than Hell.'
Towards the end of the concert, Lipa returned to the hit songs that prompted her rise to fame, including 2016's Be The One, and her 2017 break-up anthem New Rules.
A source told The Sun: 'Playing Wembley is a dream come true for Dua and to sell out both nights feels incredible. She's not even at the peak yet and has so much more she wants to achieve.
'To headlining stadiums with just three albums under her belt proves how influential her music has been. Her world tour has been a huge success. She's on cloud nine.'
Dua was initially set to play just one show at the London venue on Friday 20 June 2025, as part of her Radical Optimism tour.
But due to the phenomenal demand, the pop star stayed in the English capital for a second night to put on another performance.
Speaking in an interview with Vogue this month, Dua said: 'That's definitely been a massive dream, and it's going to be quite surreal. You know, stadiums: that seems pretty scary.
'Adrenaline is an incredible drug can hear people screaming before I'm even on.'
She added: 'That's when my heart starts racing. Moments before, I'm like: 'Oh, my God, we're doing this.' And I'm ready to go.'
Dua admitted that as the venues she has played have got bigger she worries about being able to make the shows 'still feel intimate.'
The hitmaker said she was planning to get up close and personal with her fans at Wembley Stadium.
Dua is set to jump off the main stage and walk the full length of the crowd in a similar manner to her Glastonbury headline performance last year.

Romeo Beckham's ex Kim Turnbull speaks out on rumours and lies after denying she ever dated Brooklyn: 'It's tough when people are saying things that don't align with your character and your values'
Kim Turnbull has spoken out on her 'tough' experience with fame after splitting from Romeo Beckham and hitting back at rumours that she dated his brother Brooklyn. The brunette beauty, who only recently split from Romeo, 22, shot down accusations that she was romantically involved with Brooklyn, 26 in a statement posted to her Instagram account, explaining: 'I will not continue to receive harassment or be embarrassed on the basis of lies, to fit a certain narrative. 'I have never been romantically involved in ANY capacity at ANY point with the person in question. Soon after Romeo shared a cryptic post about 'spreading unnecessary lies'. And now in a new interview with The Sunday Times Style Magazine, the DJ and model has opened up about how she deals with the limelight and juggling rumours about herself. She said: 'There are situations that you find yourself in that present you with new aspects, but at the same time I think it has always been something that I've been around and seen, so I just take it day by day and try to focus on the positives. 'Sometimes it's difficult to block things out because a lot of the time there are things said that are not necessarily true or necessarily positive, and your instinctive reaction is to want to be like, no, that's not true! 'But I think what I've learnt, at this point in life, is to try and take it with a pinch of salt.' Kim continued: 'It's definitely tough, whatever it is, when people are saying things about you that aren't necessarily true and, most importantly in my opinion, don't align with your character and your values. 'You want to turn around and reply to every comment and have your say in it, but at the end of the day you just can't.' Kim had been at the centre of the Beckham family fallout, after Brooklyn's wife Nicola Peltz, 30, reportedly claimed that she felt uncomfortable around her. Things came to a head when Brooklyn and Nicola were no shows at any of David's 50th birthday celebrations last month, with The Mail revealing that Kim has been made the 'scapegoat' in the feud. Brooklyn and his wife Nicola snubbed the football legend David's five celebrations to mark his milestone birthday, including celebrations in Miami, London, Paris the Cotswolds and a boys fishing trip to Scotland. He also failed to acknowledge his dad for Father's Day, despite David and Victoria publicly reaching out to their son. Earlier this month the Mail exclusively revealed Kim and Romeo had split after seven months together. Sources said how the pair's relationship had 'fizzled out' and their parting had 'nothing to do' with Nicola Peltz. A pal said: 'Romeo and Kim are both young and they had a lovely time together but at that age things don't always last forever and they decided to split up. 'They have been friendly since and have even been at the same venues. It's a huge shame, particularly as David and Victoria really adored her and thought she made Romeo happy but it wasn't to be. 'It happened a couple of weeks ago and relations have remained friendly between them.' Kim, is the well-heeled granddaughter of renowned post-war sculptor and painter William Turnbull, while her father Alex Turnbull and uncle Johnny were part of the post-punk band 23 Skidoo, formed in 1979. She dated Madonna and Guy Ritchie's son Rocco, and through that connection was part of a tightknit friendship group in 2016 which included Brooklyn. Kim and Brooklyn were undeniably close for a brief period – as photographs of them together at the time show - but suggestions that they were ever an item are wide of the mark. That Kim has now been 'thrown to the wolves' as the reason behind the family row is 'deeply upsetting' to Brooklyn's parents and brothers. US website TMZ wrote at the time: 'Sources say Brooklyn and Nicola were told to show up to the main celebrations or they wouldn't get a chance to see the family... leaving the two saddened because they simply won't be around Brooklyn's brother Romeo and his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull.'

Rachel Zegler praised after leaping to the defense of her bodyguard: 'Don't disrespect my Danny'
Rachel Zegler is being praised for leaping to the defense of the man whose job is to protect her. The Show White star, 24, who is starring in Evita at the London Palladium, stood up for her bodyguard after a fan seemingly took issue with something he did in the name of protecting her. The commotion was captured in a TikTok video uploaded on Saturday and showed Zegler telling a fan as she signed autographs, 'He is protecting me.' When the fan answered back that it was 'too much, no need to shove,' the West Side Story star stood firm, as the bodyguard, wearing a tight white T-shirt and black pants stood quietly behind her. 'He works here and he's helping me, because crowds are very intimidating,' the People's Choice Award winner said. When the autograph seeker pushed back with words not quite intelligible on the clip she said, 'I know babe, and I love you so much, but please don't disrespect my Danny, okay?' Rachel Zegler is being praised for leaping to the defense of the man whose job is to protect her after a run-in with an aggressive fan in London; Pictured in New York City in April After seeing the clip, fans rushed to stick up for the actress who stood up for her bodyguard. ''Please don't disrespect my Danny' is everything,' wrote one admirer. 'Having to gentle parent adults about the necessity of a body guard is crazy,' contended another. 'She's such a Disney princess (literally)' wrote a viewer. Zegler's polite protection of Danny earned her a fan who said, 'yeah I'm not falling for the hateful propaganda ppl be spreading about her.' The actress heard about the clip going viral and reshared a comment from a fan who wrote, 'he OUR danny now mawma.' The London revival of the Tony winning musical by Andrew Lloyd Weber and Tim Rice opened on June 14. In an interesting twist, when it comes time for Zegler to sing the show-stopping Don't Cry For Me Argentina, she steps out on to the balcony at the Palladium where any passersby can hear her, while the performance is streamed onto a screen in the theater. And while some may think the 24-year-old Zegler is too young to play the former First Lady of Argentina, history records Eva Peron died at age 33. 'It's one of those roles for women in musical theater that has everything you could possibly want to do as a performer,' she told Vogue. 'You get to sing your face off, you get to dance, and it's a really meaty acting part where you go through 18 years of someone's life, from the age of 15 until her death.' Speaking of the controversial real-life Evita, she said, 'To this day in Argentina, people revere her or they revile her. Yet she made such an impact. I think it is wonderful when pieces turn to the audience and ask them how they feel.' After seeing the clip, fans rushed to stick up for the actress who stood up for her bodyguard. ''Please don't disrespect my Danny' is everything,' wrote one admirer Zegler's 12 week run opened on June 14 and was scheduled to end on September 6. Referring to the controversy caused by her casting in Disney's Snow White, the Golden Globe winner is cautious. 'It was a lot of wonderful hard work,' she told the publication. 'I'm very proud of the work that was done on it, very proud of the way my performance was received, because it was a performance I cared deeply about as I do with all the things I work on.'
