Christmas is coming and, before she performs on Saturday Night Live this weekend, Dua Lipa warmed up with a special holiday song alongside Jimmy Fallon.
The singer, 25, was seen walking down a hallway in a segment on Thursday night’s The Tonight Show, when she ran into Fallon, 46.
While Lipa said she wanted to ‘save her voice’ for SNL, she recreated an iconic scene from the 2003 holiday classic Love, Actually with Fallon.

Through the use of some white posterboard, she asked Fallon to sing with her, mirroring an iconic scene between Andrew Lincoln’s Mark and Keira Knightley’s Juliet.
‘Hey while I’m here… Since it’s Christmas… And Christmas is the time we sing Christmas songs… Want to sing a Christmas song with me?’ Lipa asked through the cards.
Never one to turn down a song, Fallon enthused, ‘I’d love to,’ as they broke into Christmas Is All Around, performed in the Love, Actually movie by Bill Nighy’s Billy Mack.

Lipa sang at a seemingly safe distance from Fallon, rocking a white and powder blue checkered coat with gold buttons.
She also rocked a matching skirt with white leggings and white pumps, with shots of the singer and talk show host heading outside into Rockefeller Center to have a snowball fight.
They were also seen marveling at the massive Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center before wishing each other a very Merry Christmas.
