Several Facebook pages with content in the Albanian language published a photo of Dua Lipa, the famous singer from Kosovo, on October 29 and 30.
The photo was accompanied by the caption: "Dua Lipa hits Rita Ora hard: Don't be a little too much...", claiming that Dua Lipa expressed this towards Rita Ora, another singer from Kosovo.
During the research by Hibrid.info, no facts were found that prove that the singer in question has stated anything like this.
Apparently, these pages, through this baseless statement, wanted to link it to the recent action of Rita Ora, who was seen sitting next to Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic during a Rugby match. (see here and here)

Hibrid.info has checked the official profiles of singer Dua Lipa on social media, Facebook and Instagram, but the statement claimed by the above-mentioned pages was not found in them. (see here and here)
While even in the search conducted by hibrid.info through the "Google" search engine, the search results do not show evidence that supports Dua Lipa's alleged statement from the above-mentioned pages.
Analyze:
Several Facebook pages have published an image of Dua Lipa with the caption: "Dua Lipa slams Rita Ora: Don't be a little too harsh...", claiming that the singer said something like that.
But hibrid.info has researched and found no credible facts or evidence that such a statement came from the singer.
Therefore, based on its work methodology, hibrid.info assesses the publication as "Fake News".
Reasoning:
The "Fake News" rating is given to media reports that are entirely the product of a medium that itself contains factually incorrect claims or information.
Content that is considered fake news can be reliably determined to have been created and distributed with the intent to misinform the public, i.e., to present a claim that is completely false as fact.
