Dua Lipa and her talent agency WME disputed media claims that she terminated manager David Levy due to his opposition to Palestine activism. Multiple outlets reported that Levy attempted to remove Irish band Kneecap from the Glastonbury festival lineup over their criticism of Israel's Gaza actions. The Daily Mail published the original story which various sources then repeated. Both the artist and her representation company rejected these allegations as false. WME clarified that Levy had not handled Lipa's regular business operations since 2019.
The agency explained that Levy voluntarily withdrew from managing her account along with other clients earlier this year. Lipa condemned both Levy's reported behavior toward artists expressing political views and the media's treatment of the situation. She described the termination claims as entirely inaccurate while criticizing the Daily Mail's inflammatory reporting style. The singer accused the publication of exploiting global tragedies for newspaper sales. She maintained her support for Palestinian causes despite the controversy.
