Studio 2054 was a livestream concert by English singer Dua Lipa in support of her second studio album, Future Nostalgia (2020). The concert took place in four live streams on 27 November 2020 as part of American Express' Unstaged series. After being forced to postpone the Future Nostalgia Tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Lipa arranged for the livestream in order to perform songs from the album live. She used the livestream to fuel her fascination with Studio 54. Angèle, Bad Bunny, the Blessed Madonna, Buck Betty, Elton John, FKA Twigs, J Balvin, Kylie Minogue, Miley Cyrus and Tainy performed as guests.

Studio 2054 was filmed at London's Printworks venue in custom built sets. The concert received generally positive reviews, many of whom praised Lipa's stage presence and performance. Some criticized the many guest performers, specifically Elton John. The show had an attendance of 5 million people, breaking a record for viewership of a paid livestream. It also holds the Guinness World Record for highest tickets sales for a paid livestream by a female artist.

Background and development

Production of Studio 2054 began in August 2020, but planning for it started before then and took nearly five months to put together. Dua Lipa was not originally on board with the livestream since she wanted to wait until she could perform in front of fans; however, her team put forward an idea to make it like a TV show and this changed her mind.{{cite web|url=https://www.iq-mag.net/2020/12/studio-2054-backstage-biggest-live-stream-yet/#.X-wNE2RKhQI|title=Studio 2054: Backstage at the biggest live stream yet|website=IQ|date=2 December 2020|access-date=2 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201211063523/https://www.iq-mag.net/2020/12/studio-2054-backstage-biggest-live-stream-yet/#.X9MTpWT7RQI|archive-date=11 December 2020}}{{cite magazine|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/pro/news/dua-lipa-livestream-cost-viewership-1096950/|title=Behind Dua Lipa's Record Breaking Livestream|magazine=Rolling Stone|url-access=limited|last=Millman|first=Ethan|date=1 December 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201215122615/https://www.rollingstone.com/pro/news/dua-lipa-livestream-cost-viewership-1096950/|archive-date=15 December 2020}} Lipa additionally thought her fans were longing for some sort of human connection during lockdown protocols associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.{{cite magazine|url=https://ew.com/music/dua-lipa-studio-2054-concert/|title=Dua Lipa sets virtual Studio 2054 concert to stream live in November|magazine=Entertainment Weekly|last=Romano|first=Nick|date=28 October 2020|access-date=28 October 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201028233449/https://ew.com/music/dua-lipa-studio-2054-concert/|archive-date=28 October 2020}} The concert's name comes from the famous New York City nightclub, Studio 54; Lipa had always had a fascination with the nightclub and its varying personalities.

The singer continued into a slower number, "Pretty Please", before transitioning into an extended intro of "Break My Heart" that interpolated Donna Summer's "I Feel Love" (1977).

The second act saw Lipa changing outfits into a silver, custom-made Alexander Wang leotard and black boots, and beginning a performance of "Break My Heart". In the performance, she strutted through giant neon hula hoops while dancers ran with her.{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/dec/06/dua-lipa-studio-2054-livestream-review-printworks-london-kylie-fka-twigs|title=Dua Lipa: Studio 2054 review – a celebration of up-close disco joy|website=The Observer|last=Empire|first=Kitty|author-link=Kitty Empire|date=6 December 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201227034101/https://www.theguardian.com/music/2020/dec/06/dua-lipa-studio-2054-livestream-review-printworks-london-kylie-fka-twigs|archive-date=27 December 2020}}{{cite web|url=https://www.theupcoming.co.uk/2020/11/28/dua-lipa-studio-2054-live-review/|title=Dua Lipa: Studio 2054|website=The Upcoming|last=Cowan-Turner|first=Georgie|date=28 November 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201202150358/https://www.theupcoming.co.uk/2020/11/28/dua-lipa-studio-2054-live-review/|archive-date=2 December 2020}}{{cite web|url=https://theartsdesk.com/new-music/dua-lipas-studio-2054-pop-sensation-locked-spectacle|title=Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 – pop sensation locked into the spectacle|website=The Arts Desk|last=Muggs|first=Joe|date=28 November 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201128234731/https://theartsdesk.com/new-music/dua-lipas-studio-2054-pop-sensation-locked-spectacle|archive-date=28 November 2020}} FKA Twigs then joined the show to premiere her and Lipa's unreleased track, "Why Don't You Love Me", wearing a black Nasir Mazhar butt-bearing bikini with knee-high boots.{{cite web|url=https://vmagazine.com/article/dua-lipas-studio-2054-recap-fka-twigs-kylie-minogue-and-more/|title=Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 Recap: FKA Twigs, Kylie Minogue and More|website=V|last=Harumi|first=Luana|date=30 November 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201212194147/https://vmagazine.com/article/dua-lipas-studio-2054-recap-fka-twigs-kylie-minogue-and-more/|archive-date=12 December 2020}} Twigs appeared on a darkened stage that was illuminated by a spotlight where she performed a pole dance solo, before Lipa joined her to end the performance with an embrace. Lipa then made her way to a roller disco set where she momentarily picked up a drink from the bar before waving to the Blessed Madonna, who appeared in the center DJ Booth. Lipa made her way to the booth to hug the Blessed Madonna, and ask her to play "Physical".{{cite web|url=https://www.dummymag.com/features/dua-lipa-studio-2054/|title=Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 disco party upped the game for virtual live shows|website=Dummy Mag|last=Jolley|first=Ben|date=30 November 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201130100327/https://www.dummymag.com/features/dua-lipa-studio-2054/|archive-date=30 November 2020}} The rendition of the song contained extra disco style, and Lipa performed sweaty aerobics choreography with dancers dressed in neon primary-coloured workout gear. At one point in the performance, the singer dropped to her knees while singing passionately. Following the performance, the Blessed Madonna performed a Club Future Nostalgia DJ mix that included a salsa remake of "Boys Will Be Boys" based on Zach Witness' remix, Gwen Stefani's "Hollaback Girl" (2005), and "Cosmic Girl" (1996) by Jamiroquai.{{cite web|url=https://pitchfork.com/news/dua-lipas-studio-2054-livestream-heres-what-happened/|title=Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 Livestream: Here's What Happened|website=Pitchfork|last=Hussey|first=Allison|date=28 November 2020|access-date=28 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201221003109/https://pitchfork.com/news/dua-lipas-studio-2054-livestream-heres-what-happened/|archive-date=21 December 2020}} During the mix, Lipa joined the Blessed Madonna once again in the DJ booth. Lipa performed "Cool" while standing in the middle of the set next. Roller skaters surrounded her and the mirrorball panned around the set. The end of "Cool" featured a phone ringing sound effect as an intro to "New Rules". Lipa and her dancers made their way to an abandoned warehouse space for the song's performance. During the performance, Lipa picked up a phone and slammed it down as well as performing "crab-like" choreography with her dancers.

The third act began with Lipa walking into a bordello-themed, pink and gold boudoir where her brother Gjin is playing FIFA 21 (2020) with Kalvin Phillips, Bukayo Saka, Jeremy Lynch and AJ Tracey. Lipa changed the channel on the TV to a VHS format of unreleased footage for "Prisoner" with Miley Cyrus. Lipa continued with a performance of "Un Día (One Day)" as J Balvin, Bad Bunny, and Tainy appeared on the vintage TV set in the corner to contribute their respective parts. She wore a new outfit: a Versace rhinestone-studded bustier top alongside black jeans and sneakers. Angèle then joined Lipa in a matching outfit to perform "Fever", during which the two danced around the set. The show moved into a New York City boiler room rave where Buck Betty performed as the DJ.{{cite web|url=https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a34810118/dua-lipa-studio-2054/|title=Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 – Guests, Outfits, Set, Livestream Concert|website=Harper's Bazaar|last=Mackelden|first=Amy|date=28 November 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201212124900/https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/art-books-music/a34810118/dua-lipa-studio-2054/|archive-date=12 December 2020}} She proceeded by performing "One Kiss" from behind the DJ deck as dancers were seen on the dance floor. Kylie Minogue then made her way towards the DJ deck to duet with Lipa on her song "Real Groove" from her fifteenth studio album Disco (2020). Minogue jumped onto the DJ deck during the performance and she stayed to also duet with Lipa on "Electricity".

For the final act, Elton John opened with a pre-recorded solo performance of his song "Rocket Man" that was projected on a wall, with dancers watching motionlessly, similar to an In Memoriam service. However, he was cut off during the first chorus as the camera panned to another space in the warehouse and Lipa performed "Hallucinate". The set was sci-fi themed with a moon included in the background and Lipa wore a skin-tight jumpsuit with a crystal-embellished design.{{cite web|url=https://www.vogue.co.uk/news/article/dua-lipa-studio2054|title=Dua Lipa Serves Up High-Octane Glamour In Custom Mugler For Her Star-Studded Studio2054 Performance|website=Vogue|location=United Kingdom|last=Maitland|first=Hayley|date=28 November 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201220210038/https://www.vogue.co.uk/news/article/dua-lipa-studio2054|archive-date=20 December 2020}} Studio 2054 closed with a performance of "Don't Start Now", which contained elements of "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" (1979) by ABBA. The performance featured flashing neon lights paired with strict and doubly choreography. Lipa then went through all the sets featured in the show, before a huge glitter canon was set off as she screamed, "Yeah!" The cameras then panned out to reveal the whole set. VIP-ticket guests also got to attend a 20-minute after party with the Blessed Madonna following the show. Viewers got a fly on the wall view as the DJ played old-school disco classics including "Keep On Jumpin'" (1978) by Musique.

Studio 2054 was met with generally positive reviews from critics.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/9501019/taylor-swift-dua-lipa-pandemic-strategies-2020/|title=Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa and More Innovated In the Pandemic — But What Strategies Will Stick?|magazine=Billboard|last=Havens|first=Lyndsey|date=18 December 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201222153059/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/9501019/taylor-swift-dua-lipa-pandemic-strategies-2020/|archive-date=22 December 2020}} In a positive review for The Daily Telegraph, Neil McCormick gave the show five stars and viewed it as "the best livestream" of 2020. Specifically, he commended the show for being "exceptionally well-staged" and "an escapist fantasy from the sofa," as well as complimenting Minogue's performance and criticizing John's. Writing for The Times, Dan Cairns praised the "slick, polished" production values and thought that the show re-birthed Studio 54, excluding the drugs and "dodgy accounting." He went on to criticize it for looking like a "nightclub scene in a sleazy 1980s movie" and like having 1980s MTV on loop, as well as for the "mayhem [failing] to materialise." The Observer writer Kitty Empire agreed with McCormick in terms of Minogue and John's performance and noted the nod to disco, the 1980s, Europop, and club culture. Giving the show four stars out of five, she praised the "executes tunes, choreography and [flawless] costume changes" and how it is a "retro-futurist dance-party." The show was listed as one of the 29 best fashion moments of 2020 by Vogue{{'}}s Emily Farra.{{cite web|url=https://www.vogue.com/article/year-in-fashion-best-moments-2020|title=The 29 Best Fashion Moments of 2020|website=Vogue|last=Farra|first=Emily|date=28 December 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201228152634/https://www.vogue.com/article/year-in-fashion-best-moments-2020|archive-date=28 December 2020}}

Studio 2054 was given three stars by The Guardian{{'}}s Alexis Petridis, who commended Lipa's "spangly outfits" and her vocals that "never [miss] a note or [sound] breathless." On the other hand, he disapproved of the many guest appearances that he thought were a "damp squib," but also viewed the show as "weirdly fun" despite the shortcomings. NME{{'}}s Rhian Daly awarded the show four stars; he thought that it completed Lipa's "evolution from good to great," as well as praising her performance and stage presence. He additionally called the show "an aesthetic wonderland of neon and glitter" but also disapproved of John's appearance. Chris Willman of Variety named the show a "happy dispatch from another galaxy, where dancing and dopamine both still occur, and joy is a thing of the present," and complimented it for being FX-free. He additionally praised Lipa's performance and criticized the guest performers. Allison Hussey from Pitchfork viewed the show as a "star-studded event." Both Amy Mackelden of Harper's Bazaar and V{{'}}s Luana Harumi highlighted the guest stars' performances and Lipa's costumes.

In a positive review from DIY, Elly Watson thought Studio 2054 set the bar for live streams and described it as "all glitz, all glamour, all bangers, and all high production, with multiple fabulous costume changes, new sets, and choreographed dance moves." Narzra Ahmed of Clash highly praised Lipa's performance and vocals, and the guest appearances, as well as the "spectacular" concert as a whole. Alim Kheraj of i gave the show three stars and directing praise towards Lipa performance alongside her live vocals; however, he criticized the "New Rules" performance and the guest performers who did not perform in person, specifically John. In a mixed review for The Arts Desk, Joe Muggs gave the show three stars and had mixed feelings on the sets, Lipa's performance, the setlist and the guest appearances. However, he called the show "anything but a disappointment." For Billboard, Katie Atkinson and Keith Caulfield praised the high production values but also criticized the guest performers. They concluded by expressing their perforation for a live concert but thought it would sound nice as a live album with the seamless transitions between songs.{{cite magazine|url=https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/podcasts/9492201/dua-lipa-studio-2054-livestream-concert-pop-shop-podcast|title=How Does Dua Lipa's Studio 2054 Livestream Concert Compare to a Real Live Show?|magazine=Billboard|time=13:46|last1=Atkinson|first1=Katie|last2=Caulfield|first2=Keith|date=1 December 2020|access-date=29 December 2020|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201227204030/https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/podcasts/9492201/dua-lipa-studio-2054-livestream-concert-pop-shop-podcast/|archive-date=27 December 2020}}

December 2020}} At its peak viewership, Studio 2054 had viewers in 150 countries. However, Lipa's team admitted that the stream underperformed in some territories. Following the concert, ticket sales for the Future Nostalgia Tour went up by 70%. The official revenue numbers for the show were not published, but Lipa's team stated it was a "profitable venture" and that she will probably do another livestream in the future regardless due to this.
