Pop superstar, Dua Lipa has been spotted in London flaunting a new fiery red hairstyle that bears an uncanny resemblance to Shakira’s iconic hairdo of the 90s. Shakira first sported this look during her MTV Unplugged performance in 1999 and brought it back in 2021 with some stunning selfies shared on social media.
Fans of both singers were left amazed when Dua Lipa stepped out wearing front braids and the exact same shade of red hair as Shakira’s. She paired the look with a fluffy white coat, jeans, black top, matching boots, and a red burgundy purse. The singer was all smiles as she posed for the cameras outside her hotel, ahead of the release of her much-awaited single ‘Houdini.’
It is still unclear whether Dua Lipa took inspiration from the Colombian singer or if she is simply a fan of her music. Nevertheless, the similarities between the two musicians’ hairstyles from different eras are striking.
The Grammy-winning artiste’s upcoming album is already buzzing with excitement from fans and industry insiders alike after she confirmed that she collaborated with Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker for her new single ‘Houdini,’ which is set to be released on November 9.
Dua Lipa and Shakira continue to serve as fashion icons for their fans and we can’t wait to see what styles they will inspire next.
