Dua Lipa Fans Inspired By ‘Houdini’ Song And The Escape Artist

Sometimes a song can really inspire fans. And sometimes, that inspiration can take really weird forms. Here's one such story. In November, singer Dua Lipa released her single "Houdini." According to Billboard, the song hit No. 1 on Billboard's Dance/Mix Show Airplay chart last month. Recently, fans have been inspired by the song and have been making trips to visit Harry Houdini’s gravesite.

A woman on TikTok is gaining attention, likes, and views for singing Dua Lipa’s hit song "Houdini" at Harry Houdini’s gravesite. The video has over 2.7 million views, with a caption that says, "rip Harry you would’ve loved Dua Lipa [sad face emoji]."

In the video, you’ll see the TikTokker dancing and singing the lyrics, "I come and I go, tell me all the ways you need me. I’m not here for long, Catch me or I go, Houdini."

Some celebrities and even brands shared their thoughts in the comments of the video. "Congrats, you won Best Cover Of Houdini At His Grave In 2024," said MTV. "Do we know if he’s actually in there or did he escape that too," said the PureWow brand. The Girls Next Door costar Holly Madison even chimed in saying, "Best thing I’ve ever seen."

When Dua Lipa released "Houdini" some of her biggest fans gathered at the Houdini Estate in Laurel Canyon Boulevard. The singer shared on Instagram that she had a blast being the DJ and interacting with fans. "Last night in LA @ the Houdini Estate celebrating release weeeek!!!! I love you guys so much!! What a night," she captioned the post.

CBS News reports that magician Harry Houdini died on Oct. 31, 1926, in Detroit, Michigan. He was in Detroit for a performance at the Garrick Theater on Oct. 24, just days before his death. During the performance, Houdini started to show signs of pain, and after the first act, the curtain fell, and he collapsed, according to Michiganology.org.

At the hospital, doctors discovered Houdini had appendicitis and peritonitis, which is inflammation of the abdominal wall. His appendix was removed, but the poison from the ruptured appendix was already in his bloodstream.

According to ThoughtCo., Houdini could do card tricks and traditional magic acts. But he was most famous for his ability to escape from what seemed like anything and everything, including ropes, handcuffs, straightjackets, jail cells, water-filled milk cans, and even nailed-shut boxes that had been thrown into a river.

Dua Lipa celebrates her 27th birthday today, so what better way to commemorate the singer's life than with her best fashion moments documented on her Instagram?

When she blew up on the music scene with her 2018 hit single, "One Kiss," the 5'8" British-Albanian star showed us just how much of a fashion icon she really is. Since then, she's graced us with countless impeccable style on red carpets, performances, music videos and everyday life.

Who else could rock a lighter in their hair and make it look this edgy? In a series of photos, Dua showed off wearing a blue and green lighter that look fully functional nestled in her dark tresses.

Wearing one of the tiniest bikinis I've ever seen, Dua Lipa wears a bright yellow string bikini featuring a daisy and marijuana leaf top, with rainbow bottoms. She accessorized the eccentric swimsuit with huge accessories: yellow star earrings and pink shades.

Dua Lipa makes this monochromatic "key lime pie" color themed outfit random with a bright pink bag, lime-yellow shoes, and a dark green trucker hat with frogs on it. Hate to say that it somehow works with her baggy pants and mesh shirt.

Purple and animal print is usually tacky, but the way Dua paired this look with a block heel turns it into high fashion.

Dua Lipa cannot possibly go this summer without doing at least one cowgirl look, and here she does not disappoint. From the yellow-tinted shades to the knee-high cowboy boots, we tip our ten-gallon hat to the singer.

We don't even care if this is an ad for water -- do you see those pink tennis balls? The attention to detail take this outfit to another level. Factor in the bedazzled butterfly on her top matching her bedazzled butterfly socks, like come on!

Ever wondered what Bubbles from The Powerpuff Girls would look like if she were a Gen Z-er? Exactly this.

C'mon, you can't look at this photo without thinking of Lydia Deets from Beetlejuice.

We are floored by how Dua Lipa managed to execute this very sexy yet highly mismatched outfit at this year's Brit Awards.

Now this is how we should all be living. By wearing a floor-length black silk robe, with -- of course -- fur trim on the sleeves.

The high bun, the bangs, the jewelry, the satin gloves -- Dua Lipa is Audrey Hepburn re-imagined with this amazing modern twist.

Dua Lipa was able to maintain a fierce face while back-bending in a skintight cutout one-piece while her hair is blown away flawlessly. Could this photo be anymore perfectly executed?!

She showed us Audrey, she showed us Lydia. Here, she evokes the spirit of Marilyn Monroe sharing a photo set from her February British Vogue cover shoot.

As you've seen, Dua Lipa isn't afraid of bold. Her winter style, seen here with the same light blue mod flower pattern from her jacket to her tights to her shoes.
