Dua Lipa largely garnered praise for showing off her killer swimsuit body during her ocean outing in Ibiza at the end of August, although the haters are never far away. Soaking up the sun in Spain as she enjoyed a paddleboard yoga session and spent time on a swanky yacht, the 30-year-old soaked up the sun in a teeny glitter bikini, showing off her insanely toned figure while getting cheeky in a thong. Making headlines for displaying her enviable body and for her double-effect bikini, Dua was front-page news for her aquatic day, but comments on X proved mixed. Some fans called the Versace ambassador "mid," with one user flat-out telling her that she isn't a "bombshell."

This Bikini Body Isn't A 'Bombshell' One?

Dua Lipa was called average by one user, with another calling her "bad" as they said that they don't understand the hype over her.

"I don't know if it's a campaign or just simp mania, but Dua Lipa is the middest of mids. Girl is not ugly by any measure, but not a bombshell either. I guess the West is impressed when a slim Balkan girl arrives since in the West you get mostly fat chicks," this hater wrote. Dua has spent most of this summer making headlines for her jaw-dropping bikini body, with July and August bringing swimwear action as she spent time in both Spain and Italy.
