Pop sensation Dua Lipa has set social media abuzz after a viral photo appeared to show her wearing a Pakistan Cricket Team jersey.
The 30-year-old singer, recently celebrating her birthday and starting her Radical Optimism North American tour, became the center of cricket conversations online. The photo, shared widely on X (formerly Twitter), was an edited version of her August 29 mirror selfie.
In the altered image, Dua Lipa’s plain white T-shirt was replaced with Pakistan Cricket Team merchandise. Fans quickly speculated whether the star was supporting Pakistan ahead of the high-stakes Asia Cup matches.
In reality, the original photo had no team logos. Experts note that AI-generated edits and Photoshop creations can spread quickly online, often creating confusion among fans.
Social media users around the world have also superimposed different team logos on her shirt, including football clubs like PSG, Bayern Munich, and Valencia, as well as cricket teams like Punjab Kings from the IPL. These edits have humorously turned Dua Lipa into an unofficial ambassador for multiple teams.
While many fans treated the photo as a playful joke, some genuinely believed she supported Pakistan. The incident highlights the growing influence of digital media and AI-generated content on fan culture.
Despite the mix-up, the photo has added excitement to the ongoing Asia Cup. Fans are sharing, commenting, and debating her “support,” showing how celebrity images can spark enthusiasm for sports worldwide.
Though Dua Lipa has not confirmed any affiliation with the Pakistan Cricket Team, the viral photo underscores the global reach of her influence. It also reflects the power of social media in blending entertainment and sports, especially during high-profile tournaments.
