Overview

  • Dua Lipa posted that the firing story was "completely false" and criticized the Daily Mail’s language as deliberately inflammatory.
  • WME told the BBC that David Levy left her team years ago, held only an advisory role until early 2025, and called reports of a politically motivated dismissal "categorically false."
  • The Mail on Sunday had reported that Lipa dropped Levy after he signed a private letter urging Glastonbury’s Michael and Emily Eavis to remove Belfast rap trio Kneecap from the lineup.
  • The tabloid-originated claim spread widely online before Lipa’s denial, fueling searches linking her stance on Palestine to the alleged personnel move.
  • In related developments around the Israel–Gaza dispute, Massive Attack said they are withdrawing music from platforms operating in Israel under the No Music For Genocide campaign, and Kneecap’s Liam Óg Ó Hannaidh faces sentencing on Sept. 26 following a Metropolitan Police terrorism charge.
