Rita Ora continued on in her international promo efforts last night, when she wowed fans on the first day of the 2012 ‘Atlanta Pride‘, in support of National Coming Out Day.
Performing numbers from her #1 album ‘ORA‘, her arrival at the event precedes the launch of her new single ‘Shine Ya Light’, armed with a video shot in her homeland of Kosovo.

This is personaly adressed to KELLY.I was disturbed and disgusted when kelly in one of Rita’s post stated that rita was cheapning her brand by performing in this event,with someone that. Is H** postive!am suprised that in this age and tim e someone can imply that peoiple living with H** a*** are inferior.
Now is either kelly is heartless or has allowed her hatred for Rita becloud her sense of reasoning.Let me educate your hateful and ignorant soul by stating that ppl living with H** a*** are normal ppl and as such should be treated with love and not scorn and also Ppl living with a*** have dreams and aspirations and as such should be allowed to pursue it regardless of their condition.Kelly dis you take time to reason b4 u made that disgraceful comment?
and a real tho, do you guys do anything eles other than spending your entire life commenting on blogs about people who don’t give two dime about you. like do you guys have goals, aspiration, job, hobbies etc.
KELLY is disgutinging she makes me feel sick with her comments she need mental help.

Another single?
THey will heavily promote with tons of name dropping, Beyonce has already name dropped this song on her blog. It is the only way she can sell. Remove the name dropping and forcefull promo and she is non f****** factor.
With all due respect to this girl,what exactly is she promoting?is it that album that she doesn’t even know its release date here in the U.S?I really hate using the word “FLOP” on anyone but seriously,the amount of FLOPPAGE oozing outta this girl is beyond prayers….@slimsexy,i feel you..we’ve made commendable progress these past few yrs trying to eradicate stigma on people with H** & encouraging +ve living,i make time to visit my home country Kenya from Chicago time to time and i’m impressed so far.the negative elements in the war against H**/A*** must never be condoned
she’s promoting what every artist promotes, their music…how do u know she doesn’t know when her release date is? Just b/c you don’t know doesn’t mean that she doesn’t know…like damn, give her some time to promote herself and her music before she drops an album here in the states, duh…How is she flopping when she’s only seen nothing but success so far, especially for a new artist?1?! You sound bitter for no reason. If you’re not a fan of hers, that’s fine…but to make ignorant comments is just plain stupid…she’s doing a lot better than lots of US artists, but I don’t see you complaining about anyone else…
She told the media, back in the summer, that she would drop on 25 / 09. We are on OCT. Jimmy Kimmel failed to mention when her LP comes out and on her twitter is say’s coming soon to USA. They even moved the date of 25/ 09 from wiki. Rihanna never had to push an album back to an unknown date. She is flopping. HWD peaked at 62 and RIP has not charted even though it came out in august. Diamonds went top 10 that day and everyone said it was flop. Time to promote herself? She started her promo 8 months ago. cher lloyd is new and she dropped a dingle and album that went top 10.
You are the one who is bitter and ignorant. She is the most overpromoted act in history. She doing better than who?
Success in the UK and even then Emelie Sande and Lana del ray slayed the hell out of her. In fact, her LP sold 40k in its 1st week and is now out of the itunes chart. Loud and TTT are still there. She flopped all over the world. She has only had number 1 in the UK and a lot of crap goes to number 1 in teh UK.
I can give you a list of her 8 month promo :
Tv shows
magazines
made in america festivals
MTV unplugged
MTV awards
MTV after parties
MTV commercials
Shows
radio tour around the whole country
name dropping
the kardashian family
Getting take to z100 by jayz – something Rihanna never had.
And her biggest song peaked at 62?
It was not juts gay pride in ATL, She also done a radio tour in the state of Tennesee.. nashville, chattanooga etc. She has visited every city in every state, every radio statio, from urban to pop. She is an xfactor contestant at best. Even some of kids on Xfactor outsing. She needs to find a new job, because being a pop star like Rihanna is not it.
She has done Good morning America, Jimmy Kimmel and GQ USA. If flop with that. Go home and get another job.
No Rita……
I know you think that if you get the Gays on your side, you’ll start to sell. But NO…….
YOU’RE A FLOP B****. HANG IT UP ALREADY!!!!!!
what exactly did she flop?? her #1 album?? u’re pressed..
Check the global cHARTS. She is a flop. She went to japan to promote her album. It not chart in japan. Even in the UK, Emelie and Lana del ow her ass.
Rita does not need any more promo, she needs new material, new sound and new style. She is going on tour in the US (headlining), WHY? What is wrong with ROC NATION? How can someone with no fans headline a tour? who’s going to pay to see somebody that they don’t know? How big would the venue be, 5 people capacity ( For Jay, Bey, Tyty, Jay Brown and her sister)
Is she really? That’s the dumbest thing I have ever heard. How can she headline without an album out here? It would make more sense for her to go the Jessie J route and sell out club venues and do z-100, though Jessie J still has considerably a lot more fans here than Rita does. Her show in LA earlier this year, though only 200 capacity at the Roxy, sold out in like four minutes and people were pissed they couldnt get in. At Rita’s rate, I’m not even sure she could sell that out and Jessie already has people harassing her to do an arena tour in the US. I doubt she will, but there is demand for it.
She has done z100, 8 months ago. Jay Z took her to z100 to launch how we do. It peaked at 62.
How much more promo? What does she need to do to at least chart at 50?
No, you are wrong. MTV are sponsoring her headline tour next week. Beyonce the gig for her.
Thy say never say never, but I don’t see it ever happening for this girl. Where are the dancers? her perfomances are dry.
not everyone needs dancers…where were Mariah’s dancers? or even Whitneys? People actually tend to like her performances better than just listening to her music…she’s very energetic on stage and she has great vocals…refreshing!
Rita Ora is not mariah or whitney. She cannot even outsing there back up singers. She has a basic x factor voice. Even some on xfactor can out sing her.
Mariah and Whitney both had dancers!
She can sing! they just give all the songs to rihanna cuz thats who there cash ho is right now, the girl is working her ass off what r u doing?
They are wasting money, time and Rita’s energy by promoting material that is not worth the promotion. If Roc was smart, they would save all this promo for when the material is right.
It is not the material. RIP is a good song. HWD could of worked. IT IS HER. She is not a star, C list singer at best., If the have given ORA to Christina Millian, it would of been a hit. Millian has more xfactor than bland rita.
i agreerocnation DONT wnat to give her the songs! cuz they scared they will loose rihanna if they do!
I thought Rita Ora was gonna come on the scene and take Rihanna out? End Rih career, to a point that no one buys her s*** and she is reported on anymore. Rih has been selling all of 2012. TTT still sells, WHYB sold a million in the USA and is still selling; Diamonds is selling all over the world and she gets Angelina Jolie type media attention – the most for ANY black female. No black female had the media obsessed with them like Rih. Plus she has had 4 covers this year, not to mention more on the way. Movies; fashion deals etc. I thought Rita Ora was gonna end all that and reign.
Where is Rita hit?
Hapers Bazar USA
ELLE USA
Esquire UK
VOGUE USA – some supermodels cannot even book that amount of covers in less than 6 months.
There are more covers on there way. At least Vogue UK and GQ USA. So, This Rita Ora_? Look like her plan backfired…..she was screaming RIP to the girl you use to see her days are over. But she has MADE RIHANNA MORE FAMOUS.
The UK will ne tough for Rita Ora. People in the UK are sick of her, number 1 or not. n ow with Jessie J coming back, jade ellis from xfactor and Ella from factor….she will be a non motherfucking factor in the UK TOO. She should go back and do music in kosovo
wow ur dedicated ur whole name to hating someone for persuing there dream. pathetic
Rita Ora looks like a drag Queen, rihanna looks like a supermodel #next
I think we all know who reigns supreme here sam, from the last year of you saying how she would slay, fast forward to now and where are we, the comments say it all, RITA IS A FLOP and Rihanna has just somehow magically made herself over again, ohh and I stan for BEYONCE BTW
97% of the comments on this post are from Rihanna stans. Pressed much? I love how you all claim Rita is a flop but check for all of her posts
well, it is a public bog, h**! What do u expect? People will voice their opinion and if you dont like it…….f*** yourself!
So you agree that you and most of the Navy are pressed?
exactky they are pathetic and rihanna is on her 7th album you fools!
I just watched the video of her performing radioactive, her version of Only girl in the world by Rihanna…………..NAH: a cliched played out dance track, from a boring singer with bland vocals.
Lol @ you watching Rita Ora performances with your free time. Just like a real fan 😉
I bet she slayed that stage!
Drag Queen Rita! 😀
Beautiful
