Feb. 16 (UPI) — Dua Lipa is back with new music.
The 28-year-old singer-songwriter released a single and music video for the song “Training Season” on Friday.
The “Training Season” video shows Lipa sitting unfazed at a cafe while surrounded by dozens of men gawking at and taking photos of her.
Lipa said in a press release that “Training Season” was inspired by a series of bad dates.
“I had been on a string of bad dates, and the last one was the final straw,” she said. “The next morning I arrived to the studio to [songwriters] Caroline [Ailin] and Tobias [Jesso Jr.] asking me how it all went and I immediately declared ‘Training season is over,’ and like the best ‘day after’ debriefs with your mates, we had a lot of laughs and it all quickly came together from there.”
