    wait….shes gonna START recording the 2nd album in jan? wasnt it supposed to be released “early 2013”? guess they was gonna release uk versin of ORA with some rejected tracks added for the us version but decided that would flop worse.

    so…..like i thought, ANOTHER pushback to summer or late 2013. no way she gonna finish in enough time to release in feb or mar.

    meanwhile, the chick she was supposed to replace has her 12th #1 single and is looking to have a #1 album next week.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      This second album will not get released and she will be dropped. They want to drop her, but Beyonce is funding a second rihanna type unapologetic LP, to hang in there.

    • Queen Beysus November 21, 2012

      you never lied. even the beyhive can’t stand this gurl.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      You did say yesterday that they are scared of how well unapologetic done and with Lady Gaga and Kesha on their way, She will drop an album in fall of next year – IF! she ever gets a hit in the USA, and if not ( more than likely ) She will push bakc again and again till she is finally dropped.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

        Meanwhile, Rih is loaded with a at least 5 hits ready to go, plus two movies, new fragance and I guess, the new LP is being planned. Oh and jay brown wants to add more dates to the tour as the demand is going nuts for rih. LOL LOL

      • Lax November 22, 2012

        I Am happy that they are not calling that beautiful
        dark skinned girl names like they often call out
        all of the nasety names to You Know Who!!!!!!!!!!

    • HOTSTUFF November 22, 2012

      This just confirms Rihanna implication in her craft as a song writer and executive producer. Rihanna is IRREPLACEABLE. Rihanna brings those songs to life with her unique voice, accent, and ‘swag’ (yes RIRI sings with a unique ‘swag’).

  2. OMG (Celine Dion) November 21, 2012

    ALBUM#2 ALREADY?!!!!! OOKKKK AND ORA FLOPPED HARRRD. LOL

  3. RIHANNA WILL SOON BE TIED WITH MJ AND HATERS WILL DEAL November 21, 2012

    Was ORA(L S**) *that* big of a flopp?????????????

    Dis gurl will NEVA make it! She shuda STAYED on the shelf wit the rest of da RocNation acts!

  4. The Truth November 21, 2012

    Rita Ora does not have publishing credit on writing Radioactive with Sia…I wonder why she would say she does Lol. She seems more like a groupie, always talking about the “celebrities” that she has partied with–instead of being a real star. Poor girl. She needs some guidance and a personality change for her next album. Rita has a lovely voice, but needs to be marketed better with a revamp on her image if she wants to be a top international pop star.

    • Jeff November 21, 2012

      She learned from Mama Beyonce Knowles

  5. 12 MUTHAFUCKIN NUMBER 1S WHEN WILL BEYONCE?!!!!!! November 21, 2012

    ANYWAYS RIHANNA IS NUMBER 1 IN OVER 43 COUNTIRES!! WHEN WILL RITA FLOPA? NEVER!!!!

  6. CHUDDS November 21, 2012

    Totally Irrelevant.

  7. Mother November 21, 2012

    How is ORA doing, sales aren’t looking to great. And Shine Ya Light is a horrible song, don’t know why it was released.

  8. JAZMINE SULLIVANS FAN November 21, 2012

    Ops!

  9. Monstarebel (DIAMONDS IS NUMBER 1) November 21, 2012

    Well she is following in Rihannas footsteps so I expect her to release an album every year aswell….

  10. Monstarebel (DIAMONDS IS NUMBER 1) November 21, 2012

    wait so ORA isn’t being released in the states no more??! lmaaaaaao omg.

    • boopboop November 21, 2012

      seeing how poorly it did in the uk, they prob thought it’d do worse than nelly furtado in the us!

  11. BEYONCE’S WEAVE November 21, 2012

    LMAO I called it, I said that with the amount of money that was spent on this girl, they’ll take whatever they can to get their money back, including releasing a new album. She won’t see a royalty check until album #5 if she gets that far. By the end of her career, she’ll make Toni Braxton look like Donald Trump.

    • boopboop November 21, 2012

      i dont think shell make it to album #3. shes gonna be babysitting blue cheez whiz for the next 18 years after album #2 flops.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

        I do not think she will make it to album 2. They are gonna let her go after xmas.

  12. JOHNVIDAL November 21, 2012

    Wow I don´t care about this average girl but are Rihanna fans serious???? LMAO
    Where the hell do they think Rihanna came from??? It was just like this. Starting pushing and pushing, and even if she barely has decent chart success, more pushing and promo, and every year… till the thing works moderately well. They must be under 15 and they started to care about music when Rihanna was already famous and they think she raised to superstardom cos her greatness and cos people instantly loved her LMAO This is not Mariah, Alicia, Whitney, Xtina, even talentless Britney and their epic and impacting debuts, this is mediocrity pushed: Rihanna and Rita Ora for you 🙂

    • Queen Beysus November 21, 2012

      no no honey it wasn’t. rihanna debut single pon de replay reach #2 on billboard hot 100 and her album was release in the US which did ok for a debut act unlike Rita rihanna had that IT factor which propel her into superstardom after.

      • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

        Music on the sun went gold in the USA in four months and Gold in the UK. It sold 1.5 WW .

      • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

        MOTS was even the demo , those two guys who found her made. It recorded in only 6 months, and she was only 16. She had zero promotion and it slayed. This white girl was given three years and A lister writers and producers. for what? Where are the hits?

    • MelyB November 22, 2012

      ^5 @ Johnvidal – Rihanna was about to get dropped until her people snagged S.O.S. If Christina Milian has not passed on that single, Rihanna wouldn’t have had the chance to move forward AND if Brit & Mary J had not passed on UMBRELLA where do you think her career would be?

      You Rhi fans despise Rita because she was set up as a pawn to get Rhi “back in line” by her label. She’s a young girl just starting out and I hope she records a monster single so ya’ll can stop swinging off her tits hating her for no reason.

  13. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    And if this new album flops….then what? What a waste of three years and all that money. All those big names worked on this LP. The power of white skin. If she were black, she would of been dropped after HWD. Why is she even having an interview on kiss? She has already been there 4 times this year

  14. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    She is now going to make a cheap knock off of unapologetic. Beyonce, cut this flop lose.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      loose

  15. Give me it November 21, 2012

    Cute girl but her music sucks. Her voice is not suited for generic pop songs.

  16. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    All that Promo in the USA for what? THE LP to be scrapped – as I said and to make a new album and start the WHOLE PROMO again. Only this time – we are not checking for her.

  17. Jeff November 21, 2012

    She interviews really badly. The trainer shop story she seemed like she blatantly didn’t remember and a lot of her talk just seemed to be mumbling about nothing

  18. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    So, Rihanna is the biggest act of 2012. I thought Rita Ora was gonna take her out the game?

  19. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    Now she is trying to copy Rih album every year formula. Only thing is, Rih is has range and sing al genres. She cannot even sing ONE genre good, let alone others. Trust me! There will not be an album 2 and she will be dropped with little fan fare.

  20. SMH November 21, 2012

    Waste of $$$$. I agree with @Wrinkle Flop Ora. If she was Black, NO WAY would she keep being promoted this hard, or have the opportunity to record a second album after the first one tanked so badly. She would’ve been on the chopping block right after the first week sales figures came in.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      And it is shame that it is black people over whites, giving her a free pass. Like Jimmy Iovine, Tommy Motala would of dropped her after HWD, but blacks are treating her like royalty.,

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      A white CEO would never tolerate Rita Ora

  21. boopboop November 21, 2012

    keep having them 3somes with bey and jay rita! thats the only thing keeping you signed at this point! but after a while bey will get tired of pouring money down the drain and drop you!

  22. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    Beyonce give it up. Stop being scared of Rihanna. She is here to stay and you just have to deal with it. If beyonce is so talented, why is scared as f*** of Rih? Beyonce is too scared to release her LP after seeing what unapologetic done all over the world. So now she is sending Rita back into the studio to fund another attempt to copy rih. Trust me, Beyonce will drop in 2013. She scared that Unapolpgetic will bump all next year, so she going back to this Rita Thing. Rita IS NOT A STAR – SHE IS LOCAL GIRL WHO SINGS FROM THE UK AND THAT IS ALL. SHE DID THIS LAVISh SHOWcase ion paris, where is ORA in france chart?

    Why does Beyonce need to hide behind this white girl? Why is she so scared of Rih? SMH at Beyonce using Rita Ora .

    • KC November 21, 2012

      B**** STFU is Beyonce your life or something? Why you so bothered about her really, you mention her more than your fave. Beyonce? Scared of Rihanna? Ha i don’t think so hunny its more like the other way round, Rihanna better lick Beyonces ass if she wanna stay with Jay cos Rihanna would not be s*** without Jay behind the scenes. Beyonce hasn’t got nothing to prove to that non singing/dancing money making machine of her and Jays. You sound like an obsseive stalker REALLY know what goes on Beys brain. Jay is the one managing Ora not Beyonce you clown. Just remember this, why would a b**** be scared of someone who has said this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgC_STLhJ7w

      • wrinkle flop ora November 22, 2012

        F*** you h**. Jay needs Rih. What other star has he created? Rih owns her fame to the 2 white guys who brought her to the USA, let her live with them and got her a deal. Then LA gets credit for BEING THE ONE TO OFFER A HER A DEAL. F*** JAY, AND YES BEYONCE IS SCARED OF RIHANNA , THAT WHY SHE CANNOT GO HEAD TO HEAD WITH RIH ON THE CHARTS.

    • King bey November 21, 2012

      B****, Beyonce Isn’t Scared Of Rihanna. When did she say she was releasing an album this year? B**** STOP THE F****** LIESSSSSS.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      THE HOTEL BILLS EVEN MAKING AND PROMOTING THIS LP COIME INTO MILLIONS. – JUST FOR THE HOTEL.

      • Britbutnotproud November 21, 2012

        Kelly is the truth even though she does tend to go over the top atvtimes, but girl you are on point

  24. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    Who noticed that Esther Dean and Makeba riddick were practically dropped from Rihäs new album, after bigging up Rita Ora on twitter. Poor dat. Unapologetic VS ORA? How stupid could those black women be? Know which side your bread is butter, before you run your mouth. Esther Dean and Makeba Riddick were all on twitter on Rita nuts, back in Feb, when they thought she would dethrone Rih ( they were secretly jealous ) But it did not work and now they are left without a job. Rih was how they paid their mortgage and they done p*** her off, by co signing a flop clone? I hope they enjoy not making money from unapologetic – her biggest LP.

    FOOLS

    RITA ORA IS THE BIGGEST FLOP OF 2012 – ALL THAT HYPE AND NOT A SINGLE HIT.

  25. the real xoxo November 21, 2012

    I dont like Rita at all, but Rihanna stans have no right to talk about rush-releases.

    • wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

      There is DEMAND FOR WHAT RIH WILL DO NEXT. THERE IS NO DEMAND FOR THIS OLD CLONE 30 YROL H** FLOP. WE DO NOT WANT ANY LP FROM THE BIGGEST FLOP OF 2012.

  26. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    GOOD for Rih for kicking makeba riddick and Esther deans ass to the curb. Well done stargate for being loyal. They are her jimmy jam and terry lewis-

    • Dossome November 21, 2012

      I have to agree with you kelly today….how i wish artistes like melanie fiona,jazmine sullivan,jojo or even solange knowles were given this amount of support

    • Monstarebel (DIAMONDS IS NUMBER 1) November 21, 2012

      omg!!!! RITA IS JUST JOCKING EVERYONES SWAGG

      • MEL November 22, 2012

        Rita looks better than Madona

  27. wrinkle flop ora November 21, 2012

    The album is not coming out. I do not care what ” industry ” excuses she uses. She is still getting dropped.

  28. let’s be real November 21, 2012

    Rita doesn’t have “IT”. Her face is painted like a clown, she doesn’t have a unique voice, her material is subpar and her videos are blah. I cannot believe Jay signed her. Why didn’t he sign a true talent like JoJo? He signed another non singing light skinned chick named Alexis too!

    • Britbutnotproud November 21, 2012

      Can someone enlightened me as to what happened to Alexis Jordan. IMO she can sing her pretty little socks off but no doubt wasn’t bringing enough dosh for the cash cow.

  29. SHA (F*** The Navy) November 21, 2012

    I cant with this FLOP and her trash music

  30. J November 21, 2012

    She has the talent, but she wastes it on overproduced generic crap.

  31. Jason November 21, 2012

    I like Rita Ora. I think the songs she has aren’t that good though. She needs to do something more soulfull, that would suit her voice better. I don’t understand some people’s obsession with hating her. She has a good voice and a great personality.

  32. Mark November 21, 2012

    You can tell that they cut her budget. Her style looks a mess and looks like a female Mac Miller on a bad day. People make fun of Rih and clams she’s a “singles artist”, well what are you when you can’t sell albums or singles? I know, a flop, a failure. Copy Rihanna again and drop an album in 6 months, just to keep your name out. BUT Rih had a #2 hit on her first CD. Jay is gonna Tearria Marrie this chick.

    • 12 MUTHAFUCKIN NUMBER 1S WHEN WILL BEYONCE?!!!!!! November 22, 2012

      Rihs albums sells too 37 million ww!!

      • Mark November 22, 2012

        I know, they clam she don’t sell albums but sold 37 when albums don’t even sell today.

  33. mindgames November 22, 2012

    stupid ass OBSESSED haters. get lives. for f*** sakes

  34. HOTSTUFF November 22, 2012

    This just confirms Rihanna implication in her craft as a song writer and executive producer. Rihanna is IRREPLACEABLE. Rihanna brings those songs to life with her unique voice, accent, and ‘swag’ (yes RIRI sing with a unique ‘swag’).
