Dua Lipa Drops WME Agent Linked to Leaked Letter Urging Glastonbury to Drop Kneecap

She stays with WME under new representation following the leak that exposed behind-the-scenes pressure on Glastonbury.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report that Dua Lipa has parted ways with agent David Levy after his signature appeared on a confidential email urging Glastonbury to remove Irish rap trio Kneecap.
  • Lipa remains represented by William Morris Endeavor but is now working with a different agent, according to reports citing industry sources.
  • The leaked letter, reportedly first signed by Levy, accused Kneecap of supporting Hamas and Hezbollah; it drew condemnation, and the group performed their set at Glastonbury.
  • Kneecap member Mo Chara has been charged in the UK over an alleged Hezbollah flag display, with the case adjourned to the end of the month, and the group says it faces bans and cancellations abroad.
  • The episode unfolds as artists and labels escalate actions tied to the IsraelGaza war, including the No Music for Genocide initiative and separate steps by acts such as Massive Attack.
