NEW YORK (AP) — Singer Dua Lipa is blasting an organization that paid for a full-page ad in The New York Times that called her antisemitic for her support of Palestinians, saying it used her name “shamelessly” to “advance their ugly campaign with falsehoods and blatant misrepresentations.” I n the ad which appeared in Saturday’s newspaper in the main section, Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, the head of the World Values Network, named Lipa, and the models Bella and Gigi Hadid as three “mega-influencers” who have “accused Israel of ethnic cleansing” and “vilified the Jewish State.”

She looks like a discount Kardashian knock-off.

I was in London the night Kosovo got their “independence.” What a circus that was with Albanians all over the place strutting their stuff.

Other than Hamas I have no clue who/what the headline is about.

Her song “New Rules” is a jam. I normally don’t care for pop/dance music but I heard this song and it’s catchy.

In the old says, she may have been called ‘Tulip’.
Now, she calls herself Dua Lipa.

She's 25 years old.

A young person with a man’s face and a bosom. They say she sings.

She must have been impressively anti-Jewish to get Rabbi Boteach’s organization to mention her in a full-page NYT ad, although maybe ad rates are down.

The Hadids have a Palestinian Arab father and a Dutch mother. They’re Death Eaters, too.

If you're referring to "The Helen Thomas rule" or the now new "Dua Lipa rule", the thought of either of them makes me throw up in my mouth a little.

However, I can oblige if you're calling the "TTIUWP rule":

That was her debut song. She's had a number of hits to date. Unlike a lot of one-hit wonders whose follow-up releases fall flat, all her songs to date have been pretty good. If she keeps this up, she has a very good career ahead of her.

She doesnt have it.

She’ll be chewed up and spit out.

Resort to insane tweets to get a smattering of attention, in the end.

Yeah, and I remember being told in third grade that the letter "q" never, never, ever appears without a "u" following. It was something I felt I could depend on. That's changed too. Not in this precise case of course, but you know what I mean.

Correct. Actually, I think “New Rules” was her second hit. She had one before that-—”Be The One,” then “One Kiss,” then “Don’t Start Now.”

She reminds me of an early Madonna-—not the same big voice, but she (or her producers) seem to know how to pick hits. I really like “Levitating.”

As a performer, I found her dull. But, since I rarely watch concerts, who cares?
