Dua Lipa has revealed a bizarre superstition involving her nose and her bum - and it's not what you're thinking, thank God.

The pop star, 29, made the admission on The Graham Norton Show featuring Cate Blanchett, Kate Winslet, and Adrian Lester last February.

You can take a look at what she said below:

During the episode, Norton asked her about her superstitions, and Dua was brave enough to spill the beans.

"If your nose itches, you're gonna get angry about something. But in order to combat that, you have to, like, itch your nose and then touch your bum," she said.

"If, for example, you get a random itchy nose, you just, you itch your nose and then you touch your bum."

Although the celebs loved her way of thinking, she had to clarify her theory, because Blanchett was getting very confused.

"No, you're not getting angry. You're not getting angry," Dua repeated.

"It's just like a random itch on your nose happens, which is like a sign that you're going to get angry.

"So you just go, 'Oh, Hello, little itch'. And then you just touch your bum, and it's gone."

It turns out Dua also has another strong superstition, and it involves underwear.

"If you've got, like a big event or something big is happening in your life and you want to protect yourself from the evil eye, you just wear your knickers inside out," she said.

Sort of makes sense, still not doing it though.

During the episode, the singer, who was born in London to Kosovar-Albanian parents, left the UK in 2008 to move to Pristina because of political issues in the Balkans.

However, aged just 15, she moved back to the UK, and we're so glad she did.

"I moved back to London from Kosovo on my own when I was 15 because there were more opportunities in music in London. It was a good time," she said.

Speaking about her hit song 'Dance the Night' which featured in 2023 film Barbie, she added: "Initially we wrote it based on what Greta told us about the film and we were leaning towards Barbie's existential crisis and thoughts of death. It was quite dark.

"Then we got to see the film and I had changed it up a bit, so we decided to write the song like a score following the dance moves. The whole soundtrack is amazing."
