Dua Lipa's Shoulder Injury on Tour: All Clear for the Pop Star!

Dua Lipa is said to have injured herself while on tour in America and had to be checked over by a radiologist before being given the go ahead to perform

Dua Lipa's Double Trouble: Singer Injured on Tour While Ditching Agent Over Pro-Israel Stance

Pop sensation Dua Lipa is facing a double whammy - she's been injured on her current tour in America, forcing her to seek medical attention from a radiologist before being given the all-clear to continue performing. But that's not the only drama surrounding the 30-year-old songstress.

Sources close to the singer reveal that Dua suffered an injury during some "downtime" from performing, which has left her with dark bruising on her shoulder. While it was touch-and-go for a while, the insider assures us that she'll be back on stage in no time, thanks to a spot of physiotherapy to ensure a full recovery.

The news comes hot on the heels of Dua's high-profile split with her long-standing agent David Levy, who was accused of campaigning to stop pro-Palestinian rappers Kneecap from performing at Glastonbury. Levy allegedly signed a letter urging festival founders Michael and Emily Eavis to drop the Belfast-based group, claiming they were fueling anti-Semitism.

But Dua and her team had other ideas - sources claim that she was furious with Levy's stance, which she saw as supporting Israel's actions in Gaza. The singer has been an outspoken supporter of Palestine for some time now, condemning the "Israeli genocide" in Gaza on Instagram last year and joining forces with other artists to protest UK complicity in the conflict.

The row is said to have led to Dua dumping Levy and his agency, but not before she made sure he was no longer working on her music. A music industry source spilled the beans: "Dua made it very clear through her people that David Levy wasn't welcome anymore. She's a vocal supporter of Palestine, and his actions just didn't align with hers."

It seems Levy's protest worked - Kneecap did end up performing at Glastonbury, but not without controversy. Police received complaints about their set, which allegedly featured displays of support for Hezbollah and Hamas. The group's Mo Chara was even on bail charged with a terrorism offence after displaying a Hezbollah flag at a gig in November.

Despite the drama surrounding Levy's actions, Dua will be pressing on with her tour - and it seems she'll have plenty of fans backing her every step of the way. As one insider put it: "The injury happened during downtime from performing, but that won't stop Dua from getting back out there. She's a trooper, and her music is just too good to let an injury get in the way."

But what does this mean for Levy and his agency? Will other artists follow suit and ditch him due to his pro-Israel stance? Only time will tell - but one thing's for sure: Dua Lipa isn't afraid to stand up for what she believes in, even if it means taking a few risks along the way.

Kneecap were also accused of displaying support for Hezbollah and Hamas during a show at US festival Coachella in April

When contacted by The Scholarly Note for comment, Dua's representatives remained tight-lipped about the whole ordeal. As for Levy and his agency? They've yet to respond to our requests for a statement. Stay tuned for more updates on this drama-filled story - it's far from over!
