Gordon Ramsay tries Dua Lipa’s bizarre viral Diet Coke drink and his reaction is priceless
'S***!' Gordon Ramsay hilariously yells after sampling Dua Lipa's viral concoction.
If you haven't seen the pop star's Diet Coke-tail, then you can count yourself blessed because, damn.
She may have a voice that could go toe-to-toe with the most elite singers in the world, but it certainly doesn't mean she could work behind the bar at TGI Fridays - although I'm sure she fancies herself as a mixologist.

Over the weekend, the singer took to TikTok to showcase her exotic Diet Coke mocktail. Speaking in the video, the 29-year-old said: “Step one, diet coke and then pickle juice, then a couple of pickles.”
Yes... she put pickles in her Diet Coke - I'm pretty sure that's an ingredient Coca-Cola thought would never be married with.
Has anyone on planet Earth ever thought that their drink needs pickle juice? Other than the 'Don't Start Now' singer that is... I honestly don't think anyone has.
Pickle juice is predominantly vinegar with a few other ingredients - but mainly vinegar, you don't drink vinegar!
But it didn’t stop there, in fact, it got worse.
Lipa continued: ”And then some jalapeño sauce. Then a couple of jalapeños."
The clip has garnered more than 5.6 million views in just four days - one of those was celebrity chef Ramsay, who may not be an expert in mixology but knows his way around a tongue's taste buds.
Of course, the 57-year-old had to respond once he saw the video, and credit to him because he actually gave it a try.
"Right, okay let's go. Diet Coke in, a little bit of jalapeño juice, a little pickle juice, pickles in, jalapeños in, and then literally top that up with some more coke and just a little bit more juice," Ramsay says in the video.
"Okay here goes."
Before sampling Lipa's potion, which I think is a fair enough description of it - shout out to all my homies who used to make 'potions' when they were little, he quickly says what has slowly turned into his catchphrase: "Seriously?"
Almost immediately after trying the drink he spits it out, before shouting: "Dua Lipa for God's sake girl! You'll ruin your vocal chords! S***!"
His hilarious response and reaction has been viewed over 2.1 million times since it was posted to his own TikTok account yesterday (October 8).
In Lipa's own video, she even touches on the fact that people were watching her... and I'm pretty sure it wasn't because she is a megastar.
“Everyone is staring at me. The lady in the back is like ‘What the hell is she doing?’," she said.
Lipa, I'm sure that is the standard reaction to watching a woman pour pickles and pickle juice into their drink.
