On May 16th, Dua Lipa attended the Academy of Country Music Awards where she joined Chris Stapleton for a surprise duet. The pair sang Stapleton’s ‘Think I’m in Love With You.’

Speaking to ET, Stapleton said: “It was her idea, as far as I know. They kind of called us up and said, ‘Hey, she would like to do this.’ I was like, ‘Are you sure?’ And she’s like, ‘Yeah!'” Chris recalled. “So we got on the phone and talked about it and worked on it a little bit.

“We really only kind of put together what we did like two days ago,” Chris revealed. “So it was kind of a whirlwind of a thing to do — but it was awesome.”

Dua told ET why she wanted to do this: “It was a big dream of mine to work with Chris, and to have it happen tonight on the stage was really special.”

“I’m a big, big Chris Stapleton fan, that’s for sure, and I love country music,” she added. “I love the storytelling, I love the passion, and it was just so beautiful to be able to dive into that world a little bit just kind of see it first hand. It was really special.”
