On Saturday, British pop star Dua Lipa criticized a Jewish organization that paid for a full-page ad in the renowned American "The New York Times" newspaper claiming the young star to be anti-Semitic for her support for Palestinians.

The rambling ad and newspaper piece of World Values Network, written by the American newspaper staff, alleged that Lipa is an anti-Semitic person.

In the rambling ad, the head of the World Values Network Rabbi Shmuley Boteach named Lipa, the models Bella and Gigi Hadid as three “mega-influencers” who have “accused Israel of ethnic cleansing” and “vilified the Jewish State.”

On this basis, she was furious at the frequent allegations by World Values Network and what they also have done to her.

In addition to this, Lipa got furious over using her name shamelessly to advance their ugly campaigns with falsehoods and blatant misrepresentations, according to international reports.

The popular star reacted on Twitter, denying the newspaper allegation, saying:” I stand in solidarity with all oppressed people and reject all forms of racism.”

Also in this regard, Liba said the World Values Network twisted what she stands for.

Last week, British pop star Dua Lipa joined the popular hashtag (#SaveSheikhJarrah) as she highlighted the recent Palestinian evacuation operation taking place in the occupied East Jerusalem neighborhood.

In this regard, the young renowned singer took to her Instagram stories to share a message of support for the Palestinian families in the ‘Sheikh Jarrah’ neighborhood, which has been home to 28 Palestinian refugee families who lost their homes in 1948.

In the same context, millions of social media users from around the world have shared videos and images about the Israeli attacks, using the hashtag #SaveSheikhJarrah

Lipa’s Kosovar-Albanian parents fled the conflict in the Balkans in 1992. Similarly, many Palestinians also fled a war-torn region and built a life for themselves in a new place.

It’s worth mentioning that lipa is a receptionist of numerous awards, including three Grammy Awards, three Brit Awards, two MTV Europe Music Awards, one MTV Video Music Award, and an American Music Award.
