Dua Lipa Goes Full Texas: Honky Tonks and BBQ!

Y'all, Dua Lipa just proved she's more Texan than Beto's fake accent! She moseyed on down to Austin's legendary Broken Spoke for some boot-scootin', as seen in her Instagram post.

This historic joint's been standing tall for over 50 years, even as Austin's been invaded by hipsters and tech bros. Dua Lipa squealed, "HONKY TONK HEAVEN!! AUSTIN SEE YOU AGAIN NEXT SATURDAY!!!" Guess she ain't scared of a little two-steppin'!

Dua Lipa: Austin's New BBQ Bae

Our favorite pop gal's been chowing down at Austin's finest. She kicked off her ACL Fest weekend with some finger-lickin' grub at La Barbecue. Then she hit up the fancy Este on Saturday, according to their Instagram.

Este's no joke, folks. Esquire mag named it one of the best in the U.S., and even our local food snob, Matthew Odam, approves. Dua Lipa raved about the Camarones El Rica, and chef Fermin Nuñez was tickled pink. He said her compliment "may change the description on the menu, at least for a little while."

Looks like Dua Lipa's gone full Lone Star—let's hope she don't mess with Texas! 🌟🍔🐄
