Dua Lipa had "so much fun" shooting the music video for her latest song...
Dua Lipa says the release of her new song, 'Illusion', made her even more excited about her upcoming album.
The English-Albanian singer released 'Illusion' and its accompanying music video on the same day. The video was shot in Barcelona, Spain.
"ILLUSION OUT NOW!!!!! I hope you love this song and video as much as we really truly loved and had fun making this," Dua wrote on Instagram.

"This song started everything for this album sonically and it was the first song I wrote with "the band" (@carolineailin @dannylharle @tobiasjessojr @tameimpala) it has just made me even more excited for Radical Optimism in 3 WEEKS ~ aaaaahhh it’s all bloody kicking off!!!
