Dua Lipa, excited for her performance shared in a clip: “I am really excited, obviously everything takes a lil bit getting used to, you know creating these virtual performances and of course, I would have loved to be there on person and as much as we are missing the kind of live element of getting in front of people and performing, having that kind of human connection but hopefully we can bring some Christmas cheers to everyone in their home and I got to do something little bit different and a little bit special in terms of the rendition of the songs which I am kind of excited about. I love to play around the music and make every experience unique and different.”
