Zeynep Oktay and Dua Lipa Photo Ignites Turkish Beauty Talk at Kosovo Festival

Turkish girl group Manifest performed a 45‑minute set at the Sunny Hill Festival in Pristina, Kosovo on July 31, 2026. During the event, international pop star Dua Lipa met with the group backstage and posed for photos, the most shared image featuring Manifest member Zeynep Oktay. The picture quickly went viral on social media, prompting Turkish users to celebrate the beauty of Turkish women and to repost earlier photos of Turkish celebrities alongside global stars, such as Merve Boluğur with Adriana Lima and Serenay Sarıkaya with Bella Hadid.

The festival also hosted performances by artists like Katy Perry, but the Zeynep Oktay–Dua Lipa moment became the focal point of online discussion, highlighting Turkey’s cultural presence on an international stage.
