‘I’m checking you out in your sweet desire…’
This week, Brit Pop wonder Rita Ora kicked off her ‘Radioactive Tour’, generating fresh steam for her debut album, ‘ORA‘.
Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Now, while we aren’t too keen of the show’s fashions, footage pulled from the show has us all too excited for what the coming year will see the star deliver conceptually. For, as you’ll see below, the show’s execution goes a long way in showcasing Ora’s creativity and overlooked durability as a live vocalist.

Video In-Article Ad (Desktop)Perhaps in pulling from older sister Beyonce, Rita‘s knack for making a live version of a song better than its recorded piece is why we’d put money on her US debut being far more successful than initially hoped.

That whole presentation screams LOW BUDGET H**

FLOP H**
With 4 #1 singles in the UK she can’t even sell 1 million copies of her album? FLOP &Low Budget Rih 🙂
“…is why we’d put money on her US debut being far more successful than initially hoped.”
Get ready to pay up because y’all bout to be bankrupt. Vocal performance of a song does not equate SUCCESS! Goddamnit Sam! Don’t you see!? Her material isn’t strong enough! I’m American and I obviously speak for the mass!!!! Literally unless you visit media blogs, this girl doesn’t exist! Her material is weak! And she needs to re-invent herself instead of churning out Rihanna post-Rated R B-Sides!!!!!
I am American too, and on America radio, THEY CUT HER VERSE OUT OF RIP AND REPLACED HER DRAKE VERSE. If you are getting cut out of your own song YOU ARE NOT IT!
B**** has t-rex arms nobody checking for this prostitute
I’m sorry, this girl does nothing for me, I just don’t see it.
Lmao! Her set looks like Party City Exploded.
I don’t think that was a great vocal performance, pretty disappointing in fact given she is only standing there like the proverbial lemon – the girl has no stage presence at all, and her clothes, don’t get me started on her clothes. Girl needs a style transplant badly ;o)
I wonder how much the tickets are going for they’re most likely buy one get two free..
Lol, they came as cut-outs in the Sundays Paper.
Bahahahahahahahahaha….. I just died grrrl
Are you serious?

I’m good! I got my Bey & RiRi, Im not checking for no other chick. She would have to be BEYOND amazing for me to even consider.
Rih can’t do s*** better lol she can’t even sing! Slayrita
I think she can sing,but she has is trying to mix so many artist styles in one and it doesn’t work. How is your album named after you and it everybody elsem on her stage show it looks like they only had a couple of days to rehearse.
They have only had a couple of days to rehearse. Though her tour started on JAN 28, she was out partying in NYC, Thailand and PARIS – twice. She only started rehearsing last friday.
one of the best entertainer Jennifer Lopez watch video one of the best Dancer she will perform superbowl 2014 : http://youtu.be/nzr7BZGHTTI via @youtube
she was amazing when i went to see her live on monday! its a shame that the album doesnt showcase her complete vocal ability, i hope she releases acapella versions of all her songs to show the masses that she is one of those rare artists that deserves all the success that is to come! people hating right now dont forget that this is Rita’s first album, look how long it took Rihanna to reach where she is now n Rihanna’s vocals only just beginning to creep up to the ”satisfactory” mark i think people need to recognise that Rita is the next big thing and give her the credit that she clearly deserves!
Rih album was never scrapped in France, USA etc.and it sold 1.5 WW with no hype or promo that this wack flop has had. Ha this wack b**** even had hit outside of the UK?
sHE IS WACK AND FLOP AND SHE WILL NEVER MAKE IT. I still stand by my claim, that, like Ciara ( who has sold more than her ) she will be dropped. She burns way to much money and sells no units. She had to discount her LP just to go platinum in the UK.
Stop comparing her to what rihanna done back in the day. Just cos rih blew up on her 3rd album means nothing to Rita. Rih would of blown up on album 1, if they had given 1/ 10 of the promo they gave this fat flop ugly wrinkly ass flop. LA reid played it way to safe with rih in day 1 – he should of thrown the building at her, anyway, she reigns now and that all that matter. God works in special ways, If rih had blown up at 17 and 18, she might of burned out by now. Her career is the way god intended it. Rita W**** is just a dirty industry h** who cannot sing.
Oh and the first album is no excuse h**, Look what happened with Britney first album, some people get dropped after album 1. This girl will be dropped, she will not even release a second album. I predicted that ORA will never come out in the USA. I predict she will be dropped, after they try and make some of the tens of millions of dollars she has wasted from Cony, Beyonce and ROC.
BIGGEST WASTE OF MONEY the music industry has ever seen. Her music does not even chart in the USA AND HER LP got caned in America, and people have the nerve to say she is talented and coming for RIH`?
If Rihanna hadn’t of gotten back with Chris Rita would still be collecting dust at Roc Nation. Jay tryna to push Rita to blow up to get back at Rihanna.
Paige thomos who sign to roc nation signing rihanna you da one lol (playlist): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8t5Pkwkk0n8&list=PL22A9408B32B73631 via @youtube
Ugh!.. It was worse than i thought when i saw that picture.
C’mon man… who pays to see someone boxed in a cheap prop, looking like crap and still sounding pretty damn bad during ALL of the first song (assuming that she would get more worn out and tired as the show goes on)? I honestly thought she could sing. Clearly i was wrong.
This did nothing for me. No energy, stage presence, nothing relates to a real ‘show’ i would be willing to spend my money on. I thought Jay was backing her, and that she would have at least a respectful intro for the show (one which doesn’t look cheap and slapped together) by the way they to sell her as a superstar.
This reminds me of a scene from one of my school plays many moons ago. I was waiting for the trap door to open and see Rita disappear.
A mess.
I can’t stop laughing at his mess. Honey, girl, rita YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO DANCE, PROJECT YOUR VOICE, AND SHOW CASE THAT CONFIDENCE THAT YOU CLAIM TO HAVE. because this performance was almost as lifeless as Rihanna’s Loud tour. *sips tea* LOOK TO THE BEYONCE KNOWLES CARTER FOR THE ANSWERS TO YOUR PREDICAMENT, just watch one performance at least, any will really suffice, and STUDY! please study.
Well rita is selling more than CI-ERROR!!
The same loud tour that grosses 90 million?! Your fave will never!!! *sips vita coco water*
No I don’t see what you mean..
it was cute
Ok so the ho wowed 5 people
