Dua Lipa Responds to ‘Radical Optimism’ Album Grammy Rejection Following Complete Shut-Out at 2025 Performance
Dua Lipa’s response to being snubbed by the Grammys for her album Radical Optimism reflects both her pride in the project and her gratitude for the opportunities it has brought her. Despite being a three-time Grammy winner, including Best New Artist in 2019, Lipa’s latest album did not receive any nominations for the 2025 awards, which surprised many.
In her statement to Billboard UK, she expressed pride in Radical Optimism, emphasizing her joy in performing the album live and achieving milestones she once thought were out of reach. Lipa also acknowledged that while it would have been nice to be recognized by the industry, she was happy to see other talented female artists nominated, showing support for the diversity and representation in this year’s nominations.
Her response highlights both resilience and perspective in the face of a snub, focusing on the positive aspects of her career and the broader achievements of women in music.
