Dua Lipa hit the stage in Melbourne, Australia on Monday night, performing a cover of AC/DC‘s “Highway to Hell.”
The concert was Lipa’s first of the Australian leg of her global Radical Optimism tour, titled after her 2024 album. Just before starting the song, she told the audience that she plans to cover a local artist in every stop of the trek. “Obviously, Australia has an abundance of amazing musicians,” Lipa said on stage. “So we just thought we’d go really, really big, from the very beginning. If you know it, sing along.”
You can watch fan-filmed footage of the performance below.
Lipa will perform several more concerts in Australia and New Zealand before she brings the tour to Europe, the U.K. and finally North America later this year.
