Rita Ora (GB)

About

Also known as: Rita Sahatçiu, Rita Sahatçiu Ora, リタ・オラ

Rita Ora made her first big splash when DJ Fresh tapped her for his 2012 track "Hot Right Now", which shot straight to number one in the UK. That momentum carried her debut album, Ora, to the top of the UK Albums Chart the same year, with "R.I.P." and "How We Do (Party)" both hitting number one. She has a knack for racking up chart hits: "Let You Love Me" from her second album, Phoenix, made her the first British female solo artist to land thirteen top ten singles in the UK. Her third album, You & I, arrived in 2023 and debuted at number six. Beyond music, Ora has carved out a solid TV presence, judging on The X Factor UK and The Masked Singer UK, and coaching on The Voice UK and The Voice Australia. She also played Mia Grey across the entire Fifty Shades film series. Signed first to Jay Z's Roc Nation and later to Atlantic Records, she has stayed a fixture in pop, electropop and contemporary R&B across more than a decade.
