Service95

Global pop star Dua Lipa's editorial platform, featuring long-form author interviews for her book club and short documentaries on creative life.

The brief

This channel is the video arm of Dua Lipa's cultural concierge platform, Service95. It operates in two distinct modes: a serious, long-form book club where Lipa herself conducts thoughtful interviews with contemporary authors, and a slickly produced short documentary series profiling creative professionals and cultural preservationists from niche communities.

The primary distinction is the host: a reigning global pop star who engages in serious, long-form literary discussions. This juxtaposition of pop culture and high-brow literature, combined with the high production value of its documentary content, sets it apart from other celebrity or interview podcasts.
— What makes it distinctive
§1 · The host

Who hosts this show

Service95 is an editorial platform founded by singer and songwriter Dua Lipa. The YouTube channel features two main formats: the "Service95 Book Club," a video podcast where Lipa interviews authors like Kae Tempest about their work, and "The Way I Work," a short documentary series profiling creative professionals. The project, which also includes a newsletter, was inspired by Lipa's lifelong habit of making and sharing curated lists.

AI-extracted from recent episodes · help us verify
How the host interviews

Book Club episodes are polished, one-on-one studio interviews, with Dua Lipa leading a well-researched, empathetic conversation. The 'The Way I Work' series is documentary-style, using voice-over from the subjects themselves, cinematic b-roll, and title cards to tell a story without a visible host.

Questions the host keeps coming back to

  • Can you tell us in your own words what this book is about?
  • Can you start with a short reading from the opening chapter?
  • Does one creative form give you more freedom than another?
  • How do you feel about your work being part of school coursework?
  • Why did you choose [X] as the location/setting?
  • Can you expand on the idea of not reducing characters to their circumstances?
  • Can you tell me about the relationship between these two characters?
