The Grammy Hall of Famer appeared on the large screen behind Dua Lipa and her dance troupe, with a fantastic rendition of their collaboration Cold Heart.

Their collaboration together closed out the third act of a four-act set and an encore that followed with a performance of tour title track Future Nostalgia and Don’t Start Now.

Dua Lipa’s performance also included plenty of classic tracks, split up into four acts to make room for costume changes and dance routines.

Her first act opened with Physical and moved seamlessly into renditions of New Rules, Love Again and Cool. The performer followed up with Pretty Please, Break My Heart and Be The One before heading off stage for the first of four costume changes.
