Dua Lipa is over the moon after the President of Albania Bajram Begaj granted her the citizenship. The British pop star, born in 1995 in London to Albanian parents who emigrated to the United Kingdom at the beginning of the 90s from Priština, in the then Yugoslav province of Kosovo, has said in various interviews that she is strongly attached to her family roots in Albania.
With the granting of citizenship, President Begaj wanted to reward «the artist’s role in spreading the fame of Albanians internationally through his music»as reported by the British magazine The Guardian. The citizenship was granted ahead of the 110th anniversary of Albania’s independence from the Ottoman Empire.
«Thank you for this honor president Begaj and Erion Veliaj», wrote Dua Lipa on Instagram, publicly thanking the president of Albania and the mayor of Tirana and proudly showing the Albanian citizenship documents and the official plaque of the event to the followers.
