Dua Lipa revealed there’s safety issues with the staging
Dua wrote in her story, “I am here in your amazing country and ready to perform but I am gutted to share that it has been determined that it is not safe for the performance to carry on due to safety issues with the staging.”
The 29-year-old’s concert was set to take place at Indonesia Arena as part of her Radical Optimism tour. She acknowledged her Indonesian fans for water for her concert for a long time assuring she’ll definitely come back soon for them.
“It truly pains me that we cannot perform for you all,” the Grammy winner continued, “especially after such a long time since my last performance in Jakarta.”
“I love you all,” the singer added, “and truly can’t wait to be back together in the same room with you singing and dancing our hearts out as soon as possible.”
The singer first embarked on her Radical Optimism tour in November six months after the release of her album, which was inspired by a desire to find positivity in every aspect of her life.
Dua told Variety earlier this year, “It was just so much about learning from every experience, taking everything as a lesson or seeing it as a gift in some way, whether it was good or whether it was bad, and just appreciating that even from some bad situations, something great can come of it, or I can grow to be a better or stronger person from all of it.
She noted, “At any moment, life is so unpredictable, and people and things can surprise you all the time, and I think a quality of mine that I like—if I can say—is just remaining open-hearted even when things don’t go right and not shutting down and being like, ‘This is something that really hurt me and I’m never going to trust anyone in my life ever again.'”
