Dua Lipa stuns in a sequin bodysuit and fishnet stockings as she's joined on stage at Wembley Stadium by a special guest
Kicking off the first of her two nights at the venue, the singer, 29, surprised the 90,000 strong crowd 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.
Introducing Jamiroquai, she began: '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.'
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 and will perform again on the second night.
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 will be staying in the English capital for a second night to put on another performance on Saturday June 21.
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.

Love Island star from most complained about episode of all time ‘gives away' that he's in talks for All Stars
LOVE Island star Teddy Soares has teased a return to the show - four years after being at the centre of the most complained about episode of all time. The 30-year-old, who is currently single, admitted All Stars could be on the cards when quizzed by a fan. 4 4 A follower asked him: 'All Stars 2026?' and he replied: 'Who knows what the future holds.' Back in 2021, Teddy was coupled up with Faye Winter, 28, with the now exes finishing in third place. But their experience was marred after the estate agent became the most complained about contestant in the programme's history. She clocked up a whopping 36,324 Ofcom complaints in 2021 after her "toxic" on-screen meltdown. Teddy later admitted he has struggled watching the show since, telling us: "I haven't actually tuned into Love Island in a while - since my own series." When quizzed as to the reason why, he continued: "Maybe a little bit of PTSD, I don't know. "Obviously now, I've moved so far along with my own podcast and there are things I'm working on." He added: "It's interesting now when I see certain clips, it does trigger me. "My heart starts pumping and more often than not, it's really good memories, so it's a shame." Despite finding romance with Faye in the villa, there were explosive moments in their early relationship. Love Island's Faye Winter on trolling and THAT row with ex Teddy Soares that sparked 25k Ofcom complaints One scene saw Faye swear and scream in his face - and is the most complained about moment in the show's history. At the time, viewers branded the uncomfortable clash "toxic" and "difficult to watch." It came after previous scenes from the villa were played back to Islanders during a pub qui z, including one which saw Teddy snog bombshell Clarisse. He then claimed he was "technically single" in a chat with the lads after. 4 Later scenes saw Teddy broke down in tears as his relationship with the feisty estate agent ended, with his emotional turmoil leaving fans begging for bosses to step in. Since the scenes were aired, Faye received death threats. The pair then split in February 2023, after trying to make their romance work in the outside world. Teddy then found love with Irish model Casey Boonstra but the pair split last year.

Observer editor-in-chief James Harding says BBC should be 'put beyond reach of politicians'
The Observer's editor-in-chief has called for the BBC to be "put beyond the reach of politicians" - and has compared the fight for survival within television to the zombie fungus in The Last Of Us. Speaking to Sky News about his James MacTaggart Memorial Lecture at the Edinburgh TV Festival on Wednesday, James Harding said it "is not the golden age of TV, it's more like The Last Of Us… just trying to stay alive as the fungus of new things eats through all of us". The co-founder of Tortoise Media - which bought The Observer from the Scott Trust and Guardian Media Group in December - said he believes establishing the independence of the BBC is critical "if we want to build confidence in shared facts and respect for the truth". "At the moment politicians choose the chairman, they choose the licence fee, they have enormous influence over it," he said. "Let's face it, there's a suspicion that there's a certain worldview attached to the BBC. Let's make sure that it's obvious to people that actually different points of view are really welcome." 2:36 Mr Harding, who ran the BBC's news and current affairs programming from 2013 up until the beginning of 2018, said the government must consider separating itself from the institution. He explained: "When the government established the independence of the Bank of England in 1997, it put confidence in the central institution of the economy ahead of politics; the government today can and should do the same for the shared institution in our society by giving real independence to the BBC." The BBC has been criticised for a number of incidents in recent months, including breaching its own accuracy editorial guidelines and livestreaming the controversial Bob Vylan Glastonbury set, where there were chants of: "Death to the IDF [Israel Defence Forces]". Following the incident, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said ministers expected "accountability at the highest levels" for the BBC's decision to screen the performance. In his lecture, Mr Harding said the BBC is "not institutionally antisemitic" and that: "Whatever your view of the hate speech versus freedom of speech issues, an overbearing government minister doesn't help anyone. "The hiring and firing of the editor-in-chief of the country's leading newsroom and cultural organisation should not be the job of a politician. It's chilling." Ahead of the BBC charter renewal in 2027, he said the corporation's "survival is at stake". He argued that the BBC chair and board of directors should be "chosen, not by the prime minister, but by the board itself and then, like other such organisations, with the approval of Ofcom. "The charter should be open-ended. And the licence fee - or any future funding arrangement - should not be decided behind closed doors by the culture secretary and the chancellor, but, as in Germany, set transparently and rationally by an independent commission that impartially advises government and is scrutinised by parliament." He also said the BBC should lead the way in striking deals with generative AI companies by taking advantage of the "meaningful pricing of its reliable, ceaselessly renewed library of content. 1:50 "That would help set the terms for other UK news and media companies that don't get a hearing from the new generation of tech giants," he said. Mr Harding suggested that the BBC should look to work with AI developers to provide a "BBC GPT" that could enable the public to utilise AI "without handing over every last detail of what's on their minds to US tech corporations that have proved obstinately unaccountable in the UK." He said it's "about more than the BBC, it's a national investment in our future that will come back to reap multi-platform rewards that an investment in no other UK organisation can."

Chris Robshaw's stalker harasses celebs to share lies about Strictly rugby ace online despite being arrested
CHRIS Robshaw's female stalker has been harassing other celebrities, begging them to reveal false claims about the rugby ace on social media despite her arrest. Police have dismissed all allegations but there is nothing to stop them being spread online. 5 5 The woman, who we are not naming, is understood to have left the country and is on the National Police Wanted List. But The Sun can reveal she has this week been messaging stars with outlandish claims about the ex-England skipper, 39, and his wife Camilla Kerslake as she is 'intent to ruin him'. One celebrity approached is broadcaster Narinder Kaur, who is a panellist on Channel 5's Jeremy Vine. She flagged the worrying messages to police and Robshaw's team. A source close to Chris said: 'Police were made aware of her claims, they spoke to the long list of people she had 'accused' and decided not to take further action. 'But she is intent on ruining Chris and a host of other people and is attempting to convince others that she is a victim, when actually she is on the National Wanted List. 'She has started calling companies Chris and Camilla were working with to tell them these lies and now is messaging celebrities with the farcical claims in the hope one of them will post about it.' Friends now hope that any celebrities approached will not pay the woman any attention and flag the notes to police. They say Chris' ordeal started last July when he attended the same event as the woman. Chris alerted police when her threats became physical and towards his two children, and learnt that the woman was already known for similar behaviour. Strictly Come Dancing 2025 lineup IN FULL - including Game of Thrones star & famous YouTuber The friend added: 'Poor Camilla has been pulled into this for no reason at all. 'She hasn't even met the woman. 'This all started after she fell out with a previous employer over formal warnings for unprofessional conduct. 'She is obsessed with trying to ruin lives. 'Time and again, she's made vile false claims about innocent people. 'She's a serial offender - that's why she's now a wanted person. 'Police are being inundated with evidence against the wanted individual." Chris, who retired from professional rugby union in 2022, alerted the BBC about the issues when he signed up to appear on Strictly Come Dancing. The Corporation has been supporting him but the lad is determined to make this about dancing, not drama. The pal added: 'Chris has said to friends that he completely understands if Strictly had withdrawn their offer - he even admitted he felt like a bit of a burden on those he's working with. 'DANCING NOT DRAMA' 'Chris doesn't want special treatment just because he's on TV. 'He feels strongly that what's happening to him happens to countless others without the same spotlight. 'Whilst he could sue this individual for defamation, it's obvious there are some mental health issues here, and therefore he doesn't want to drag her through the courts as he believes she won't get the help she needs. ' Chris is determined to make this about dancing, not drama.' The Sun understands the stalker was arrested in December and released with a caution. But those close to Chris said her harassment has continued and she has now left the country. The Sun approached his spokeswoman for comment. 5
