Dua Lipa Releases “Dance The Night” Music Video

Barbie’s soundtrack starts off with a bang from a Grammy-winning artist.

First single from the upcoming Barbie movie soundtrack, “Dance the Night,” by Dua Lipa, has been released.

Greta Gerwig, the writer, director, and executive producer of Barbie, makes a brief appearance in the album’s pink and shimmery music video.

The singer struts through elaborate sets in the music video while dressed like the movie’s iconic doll, which sparkles under disco balls. We also get a sneak peek at the dance scene from the film.

In addition to opening the musical portion of the live-action Barbie movie, “Don’t Stop Now” singer Dua Lipa also plays a mermaid Barbie, as seen in the zany character posters that were unveiled last month.

The film follows Margot Robbie’s doll heroine as she experiences an existential crisis in the candy-colored Barbie Land and sets out on a journey to the real world while also featuring various versions of Barbie and Ken.

While Issa Rae, Kate McKinnon, Simu Liu, Ncuti Gatwa, Nicola Coughlan, Hari Nef, and Kingsley Ben-Adir play different versions of the toys, Ryan Gosling stars as the main character Ken.

The film also stars Helen Mirren, Will Ferrell, America Ferrera, Michael Cera, Emerald Fennell, and others.

On July 21, Barbie and her pink convertible will make their theatrical debut. Watch the music video for “Dance the Night” below.
