Internet buzzes with speculation as Trevor Noah praises ex Dua Lipa's steamy Grammy performance

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The 2024 Grammy Awards sparked plenty of buzzing moments, but none more intriguing than host Trevor Noah's gushing praise for an eye-popping, sultry performance by his rumored ex-girlfriend Dua Lipa.

As soon as Noah enthusiastically complimented the British pop diva's racy opening act, fans flocked online to speculate whether he was trying to win back his former flame.

While a rekindled romance seems unlikely given Lipa's current relationship, Noah's effusive compliments definitely got people talking about this former power couple, as reported by The Daily Mail.

Dua Lipa delivered a sultry opening performance at the 2024 Grammy Awards

Lipa delivered a sultry opening performance at the Grammys that set the tone for the night. Wearing a sparkling two-piece outfit, the 28-year-old pop sensation was joined by scantily-clad dancers who performed acrobatics on a large metal jungle-gym structure.

Lipa belted out her hits 'Training Season' and 'Houdini' as her dancers did pull-ups and other exercises, thrilling the star-studded audience.

Noah, who was hosting the show, praised Lipa's act with great excitement. "Wow! Are you kidding me? Come on, give it up, y'all! That was amazing! Dua Lipa!" he raved. "That is why she is one of the best performers of a generation! I'm never going to look at scaffolding the same. Did you see that thing?"

The high-energy number kicked the Grammys off on a provocative note and cemented Lipa's status as one of music's reigning divas. However, Noah's gushing praise for his ex raised some eyebrows.

Noah and Lipa were romantically linked in late 2022 after being spotted kissing in exclusive photos obtained by media outlets. Neither officially confirmed they were dating, but the images sparked plenty of gossip about a possible relationship.

After Noah's enthusiastic appraisal of Lipa's performance, fans immediately flooded social media with speculation that he was trying to rekindle their past fling. One X user humorously remarked, "Trevor Noah announcing Dua Lipa to start this off is SO funny."

Another user added a nostalgic touch, stating, "I just remembered that Trevor Noah and Dua Lipa might’ve dated." Among the flurry of comments, a third user shared, "Trevor Noah said 'Dua Lipa' and the memory of them dating returned to me."

Another user chimed in, reflecting on past rumors, "I just remembered the Trevor Noah Dua Lipa dating rumors." A fifth user shared, "That awkward moment when you remember Trevor Noah & Dua Lipa used to date lol."

Meanwhile, a sixth user pondered on their current relationship, musing, "I wonder if Trevor Noah and Dua Lipa still talk to each other."

Dua Lipa is currently in a relationship with 33-year-old British actor Callum Turner

While Noah may have been trying to shoot his shot with his Grammys hosting gig, Lipa seems to have happily moved on with a new boyfriend. She is currently dating British actor Callum Turner, 33, best known for his roles in 'Queen and Country' and 'Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore.'

Page Six describe the couple as "mad about each other," indicating Lipa has fully devoted herself to her new relationship. Lipa's romance with Turner comes on the heels of her recent breakup from French boyfriend Romain Gavras, a director and so-called nepo baby in the film industry.

Reports emerged in late 2023 that Lipa and Gavras had quietly ended their relationship after several months of dating. Insiders cited Lipa's nonstop career as the reason for the split.

Meanwhile, Noah's own relationship status remains vague. He was most recently linked to actress Zoe Mabie, but neither have confirmed if they are officially dating.
