Dua Lipa’s Giving Mermaid in a Colorful Versace Dress at the London ‘Barbie’ Premiere

The Barbie promotional tour truly will not stop exceeding expectations. After every single cast member turned it out for the Los Angeles world premiere (obviously, I’m talking about Michael Cera), the group showed up for the London premiere looking generally jaw-dropping.

And while everyone’s look was A+, we’re here to talk about Dua Lipa—who arrived in a colorful pink Versace gown (from her own collection!) that was fully giving Mermaid Barbie.

Reminder: Dua showed up for the Los Angeles premiere a couple days ago also cosplaying as Mermaid Barbie with a totally naked Bottega Veneta fishnet dress, which she paired with nothing but a thong and some diamonds:

On top of playing Mermaid Barbie in the movie, Dua’s “Dance the Night” is featured on the film’s soundtrack.

Here are the lyrics, care of Genius, for you to memorize in time to sing them in the movie theater (your fellow moviegoers won’t mind, it’s fine).

[Verse 1]
Baby, you can find me under the lights
Diamonds under my eyes
Turn the rhythm up, don’t you wanna just
Come along for the ride?
Ooh, my outfit so tight
You can see my heartbeat tonight
I can take the heat, baby, best believe
That’s the moment I shine

[Refrain]
’Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
Baby, no chance

[Pre-Chorus]
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

[Chorus]
Watch me dance, dance the night away
My hеart could be burnin’, but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dancе, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I'll still keep the party runnin’, not one hair out of place

[Verse 2]
Lately, I been movin’ close to the edge
Still be lookin’ my best
I stay on the beat, you can count on me
I ain’t missin’ no steps

[Refrain]
’Cause every romance shakes and it bends
Don’t give a damn
When the night’s here, I don’t do tears
Baby, no chance

[Pre-Chorus]
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

[Chorus]
Watch me dance, dance the night away
My heart could be burnin’, but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I’ll still keep the party runnin’, not one hair out of place

[Post-Chorus]
When my heart breaks (They never see it, never see it)
When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
I don’t play safe (Ooh), don’t you know about me? (Uh-huh)
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

[Bridge]
Even when the tears are flowin’, they’re diamonds on my face
I’ll still keep the party goin’, not one hair out of place (Yes, I can)
Even when the tears are flowin’, they’re diamonds on my face (Yes, I can, yes, I can)
I'll still keep the party goin’, not one hair out of place


[Chorus]
Watch me dance, dance the night away (Uh-huh)
My heart could be burnin’, but you won’t see it on my face
Watch me dance (Dance), dance the night away (Uh-huh)
I still keep the party runnin’, not one hair out of place

[Post-Chorus]
When my heart breaks (They never see it, never see it)
When my world shakes (I feel alive, I feel alive)
I don’t play safe, don’t you know about me? (Uh-huh)
I could dance, I could dance, I could dance

[Outro]
Dance the night
