Dua Lipa crashed Tame Impala‘s London show on Thursday night, joining Kevin Parker onstage at the O2 Arena for an unannounced two-song set that sent the crowd into a frenzy.
Lipa appeared mid-set with no introduction during Tame Impala’s performance of “After Thought,” their 2025 collaboration, walking onstage and immediately launching into the song’s chorus. When the track ended, Parker officially welcomed his “good friend” to the stage.
“Let’s play a song that we made together!” he announced, before the pair broke into Lipa’s 2024 hit “Houdini” — the funk-inspired single Parker produced for her third studio album Radical Optimism, on which Parker worked on several tracks as producer.
Thursday’s appearance is the latest in a series of mutual stage invasions between the two artists. In 2024, Lipa brought Parker out for her headlining set at Glastonbury Festival, where the pair performed “Houdini” and Tame Impala’s “The Less I Know the Better.”
During her 2025 Radical Optimism tour, Lipa also invited Parker to join her onstage in Melbourne, Australia. At her Sydney show at Qudos Bank Arena, Lipa told the crowd: “I made most of Radical Optimism with this person and he’s one of my favourite artists. He’s inspired me a lot. I manifested and dreamt about working with him one day and then I managed to make one of my favourite albums with him.”
Lipa and Parker first began working together in mid-2022. Lipa has said she “was so nervous because I’m just such a fan of Kevin’s” when the pair first started collaborating.
“Houdini” peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 upon its release in 2024 and served as the lead single from Radical Optimism, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. The album earned Lipa a Grammy nomination for Best Pop Vocal Album. Tame Impala are currently on a world tour in support of their 2023 album The Slow Rush (Collector’s Edition).
