Queen of pop Dua Lipa visiting the Uffizi on public open day


Pop queen Dua Lipa visited the Uffizi today, on opening day to the public, for a two-and-a-half-hour tour in the company of director Eike Schmidt.

Dua Lipa, the queen of pop music, stayed for a good two and a half hours today at the Uffizi Gallery where she was able to take a full tour of the museum in the company of the director, Eike Schmidt. The celebrated British singer of Kosovan origin, who has a strong following of 87 million followers on Instagram alone, after her recent concerts in Milan and Bologna allowed herself a day off in Florence to discover the museum’s masterpieces.

The singer, 26, had never visited the Uffizi before: the diva, the museum reports, was enchanted by the Gallery’s countless masterpieces, being particularly fascinated not only by the paintings but also by the grotesques on the ceilings of the second floor and the wall maps of the Terrazzo delle Carte Geografiche, which reopened to the public only last December. Thus, Dua Lipa wanted to make, room by room, the full tour, together with a group of friends and the director Eike Schmidt, who guided her to discover all the masterpieces from the early Renaissance and Botticelli to Caravaggio, via Leonardo, Raphael, Bronzino and Titian.

Of course, at the end, ritual photographs for the star in the company of Eike Schmidt. The visit took place during public opening hours: in the pictures released by the museum, in fact, one can see many young and very young people at the museum, delighted for the double chance to visit the Uffizi and meet their favorite.
