Dua Lipa Granted Kosovan Citizenship: "It Feels Like My Two Sides Are Now One"

Dua Lipa's citizenship honors her role as a cultural ambassador, reflecting her influence on Kosovo's global image and the pride of the Albanian diaspora, President Osmani said.

  • On Thursday, President Vjosa Osmani granted Kosovo citizenship to British-born pop star Dua Lipa by decree and personally handed her the certificate in Pristina during Sunny Hill Festival week.
  • Because Lipa co-founded the Sunny Hill Foundation, she has promoted the Sunny Hill Festival as a platform for Kosovo's cultural growth and called it a 'love letter' to Kosovo, consistently spotlighting Kosovo and the broader Balkan region.
  • At the ceremony on July 31, 2025, Dukagjin Lipa attended and the Levitating singer was serenaded by a children's choir; she had been named Honorary Ambassador in 2022.
  • Osmani's social posts framed Dua Lipa's citizenship as gratitude, prompting pride across the Albanian diaspora and reinforcing her role as Kosovo's cultural ambassador.
  • Formally recognising Lipa signals Kosovo's cultural diplomacy embracing diasporic identity, as Sunny Hill Festival's global stars highlight Kosovo's platform and her Sunny Hill Foundation supports Kosovo youth arts.
