Dua Lipa has recently been quoted as saying her second record wouldn’t have been made if she hadn’t dropped social media like a bad date at Chilli’s. When speaking with Adwoah Aboah’s, Gurl’s Talk podcast, the singer expressed that “Future Nostalgia” wouldn’t have been possible if she “hadn’t taken a step back” from many online platforms such as Facebook and Twitter when she was recording it. 

After taking what she saw as a much-needed break from social media she said she was able to make the record. The record has received widespread acclaim as Dua is seen as a strong pop voice to listen to in 2020. So it just goes to show that even the biggest names in pop and social media need a break from it every once in a while. Cheers to that.
