Dua Lipa stars in a playful new campaign for Nespresso, which features a cameo from George Clooney.
The “Houdini” singer, 30, was recently named Global Brand Ambassador for the coffee giant and poses in an array of colorful shots showcasing its products.
A video released Tuesday, April 14, shows the star enjoying several Nespresso varieties, including Altissio Espresso, Sweet Vanilla, Colombia, Melozio and French Lavender Vanilla Decaf.

As she tries each drink from various luxurious locations, she repeatedly asks “What else?” — the line the brand’s longtime ambassador Clooney is known for.
As she relaxes on a pool float, iced double espresso in hand, Clooney, 64, turns up next to her.
“George?” Lipa asks, to which he starts to reply “What else?” before getting interrupted by a parrot.
The famous pair are then seen back at a Nespresso store, where Lipa asks, “So what else?”

Clooney walks up behind her to point out, “That is my line!'
“At the heart of the campaign is a simple yet powerful idea: every cup of coffee is an invitation to explore,” reads a release Nespresso shared with PEOPLE. “This spirit comes to life through immersive, high-impact visuals that shift between unexpected worlds, each inspired by exceptional coffee, culture, and creativity.”
“As Nespresso’s Global Brand Ambassador and pop music’s favourite world traveller, Dua Lipa is the perfect guide,” the statement continued. “Celebrated for her fearless creativity and global outlook, she perfectly embodies the campaign’s spirit of exploration.”
In 2025, Nespresso released a campaign that starred Clooney as a detective tasked with uncovering the thief who stole the brand’s coffee capsules from an heiress — and Eva Longoria played one of the prime suspects.

Longoria told PEOPLE they spent three days shooting the commercial in Rome, and while the actor is known to prank his pals, he was “well-behaved” on set. However, the pair still spent the time “laughing and laughing and laughing.”
The Desperate Housewives alum offered the following description for Clooney, whom she’s known for more than 15 years: “Funny, easygoing, lifts up everybody, lifts up the entire crew.”
“Everybody loves him,” she added. “His energy, just to be around him is like... It's contagious. You just have to be kind because he's just the kindest human being.”
