Being an internationally renowned pop star is all well and good, but it does come with some downsides.
One of them is having to be polite to complete strangers who approach you at random moments - but this time, it wasn't even for a selfie or an autograph.
Dua Lipa's patience was tested at Glastonbury over the weekend after she was cornered by a wannabe musician who started singing at her.
Lipa had turned in a stunning Friday night headline set, but was walking through a (presumably exclusive) area of the festival when she was stopped by a man with a ukulele, who introduced himself as 'Liam C'.

He asks her whether he can play '30 seconds' of his song for her, and her reaction as she stands there - forcing an awkward smile as she frantically tries to plan her escape - has already become a meme.
See some of the best below:

The clip of the guy with the ukulele going up to Dua Lipa is the worst thing since Brexit.
