Dua recognized what so many of us have known for a long time - Tom is a stellar interviewer especially with musicians. What I personally did not know what how lovely Dua Lipa seems to be. I enjoyed this interview very much.
-
Tom is not an interviewer, he is a conversationalist. Dua's comment at the end was due recognition of it.
-
Dua is one of the realest most down to earth stars ever. I feel like I could talk to her for hours on end.
-
Elegant and educated. So smart too. The way she suppressed some of the feelings, and switched on and off her mind and emotions on demand. Crazy.
-
Dua's inspiring and a breath of fresh air
-
Dua is just full of light!! ❤
-
Dua is such a lovely and well spoken person! I can listen and watch Dua the whole day and don't get tired of it. I love her new album it's on repeat the whole day as well. It's so kind of her to give you also a lovely compliment!
-
Dua is not wrong, Tom is incredible. Easily one of the best in the world.
-
Found this conversation extremely therapeutic today. Thank you Tom and Dua.
-
She’s such a beautiful person. The more I listen to her the more I respect and love her. She’s an amazing artist and a kind soul.
-
She carries a constant smile that shines and it's very lovely.
-
I think Dua is a very intelligent woman and loves intelligent interviews. You can tell some of these questions felt challenging just by how are being phrased. Loved this. ❤
-
I'm so glad that people are really appreciating Tom's gift for interviewing. I've been listening to him from when he first started on Q and from the first moment, I was awed by his ability. He is so compassionate and empathetic and meets people where they are at and he's genuine. He just treats everyone as regular human beings because they are. We are all human and all want to connect and share. 😊
-
Another sensational interview. The chemistry between you two as music lovers was palpable!
-
Finally Dua is on Q
-
I appreciate Dua’s take on what makes her tick…….music in general….engaging and connecting with communities through music. It’s part of her DNA and I can relate! Her energy is absolutely contagious! I 💙 that!!!
-
Heard of her lots but never heard here music. Great interview and lovely person…just downloaded her new album.
-
This is so nice CBC got this guy to interview Dua Lipa a big star.
-
First time I listened to her speak. Yeah now I see a song writer, a bit like Faouzia. Theres wisdom in those thoughts
-
Enjoyed every second of this interview, due answers were very smart, genuine and direct. Tom did a good research about her in a way to empower his questions. Which also has a big respect from the guest.
