On Twitter, one person said: “Erm no way did Dua Lipa visit Maray in Liverpool which is round the corner from my work.”
And someone else asked the crucial question for all of us who are fans of Maray’s disco veggies – “Reckon Dua Lipa got the cauliflower in Maray?”
Dua is set to perform a sold-out show at the M&S Bank Arena tonight to a crowd of 11,000.

Bolton-born celebrity makeup artist claps back at ‘nasty’ and ‘evil’ Katie Price comments
Daisy Jackson
Bolton-born celebrity makeup artist Made By Mitchell has hit back at social media users who criticised Katie Price’s appearance, describing some of the comments as ‘so evil’ and ‘downright rude and nasty’.
The makeup artist, whose real name is Mitchell Halliday, was responsible for Katie’s glam for a recent red-carpet appearance at the NTAs, with the pair opting for a bold and distinctive look.
While thousands of people took to social media to share their opinions on the reality star’s makeup and outfit, Mitchell said he was comfortable with people disliking the look – but was upset by the personal nature of some of the comments aimed at Katie.
“Thousands and thousands and thousands of people have given their opinion on the glam and outfit,” he said.
“A lot of it is positive and a lot of it is negative as well, and that is so okay – everyone is allowed to have their own opinion.”
While Mitchell said he was not bothered by people criticising his makeup, he admitted that some of the reaction left him upset.
He said: “I was genuinely a bit upset by some of the comments and what I was reading, and not because people didn’t like my makeup, that is so okay, it’s literally fine, again my client was happy and that’s all that matters to me.”
Mitchell said it was the comments directed specifically at Katie that affected him most.
“How people were speaking about Katie just really got me to be honest,” he said.
“It was so so evil. So many evil comments.”
He questioned why users felt the need to leave such harsh remarks rather than simply moving past content they did not enjoy.
“What is wrong with people? Just scroll on. Scroll on,” he said.
He also defended the decision to create a more dramatic look, arguing that it reflected the style Katie and Mitchell had set out to achieve together.
“This is a Katie Price and Mitchell glam,” he said.
“If Katie asked me to go and do her makeup for a red carpet and she asked me to do ‘please just do a really soft clean girl look’… really? I would’ve said ‘why have you brought me all the way down here?'”
Mitchell stressed that he was not trying to prevent people from having their say, acknowledging that social media users were entitled to their opinions.
“Opinions are so valid, I’m never gonna stop someone from giving their opinion in a comment section, that’s completely fine especially on my page,” he said.
“However, you don’t need to be nasty about it. And some of those comments were just downright rude and nasty.”
He added that he did not want his social media platforms to become a place where people could target Katie personally.
“Some of the comments about Katie were just so uncalled for and my page is not the place for that,” Mitchell said.

His message to those commenting on the look was simple: “Just be a bit kinder, it’s not that hard.”
