Nine’s Richard Wilkins Apologises After Pop Star Slams Him For “Talking Out Of Your Ass”

Entertainment reporter Richard Wilkins has issued an apology to UK pop star Dua Lipa for suggesting the singer had cancelled touring appearances Down Under to perform on a US talk show.

During his segment on Nine’s Today show yesterday morning, Wilkins noted that Lipa cancelled her appearances last weekend due to immediate surgery to have her wisdom teeth taken out, before running footage of singer performing on Jimmy Kimmel Live the night before.

“We were told that was live to air,” he said.

However, it turns out whoever told Dickie had their facts wrong, with Lipa taking to Twitter to slam the entertainment expert and Nine.

Wilkins was quick to apologise, tweeting back at Lipa and even sticking a “sorry” sticker on his butt during today’s episode of the Today show to highlight the singer’s comment that he was “talking out of your ass”.
