‘From strength to strength’.
Rita Ora continues to inspire any aware of her rise to the top this month, gracing the cover of Elle Magazine’s May 2013 ‘Women In Music’ issue.
Hitting the publication as part of the mag’s celebration of Pop’s most moving mavens, Rita dominates the mag with a light hearted but high fashion spread, now available to enjoy below!
Your thoughts?
I actually like it, I like the theme.
gives me gaga’s vogue photoshoot tease tho.
Yeah, that’s probably why I like it lol.
Those python peeks are ERRYTING!!!
🙄
Loved The Adele’s One More.
Stunning! U can hate her all u want but u can’t deny she’s looking gorg here. <3
Sorry, i can deny. I like the concept and the clothing but i really don’t find her attractive.
Stunning! U can hate her all u want but u can’t deny she’s looking gorg here. <3
Slay! She is doing big things. She’s not stopping!
I wonder how many black women are in this “Women in music” issue?
1.
“Alicia keys”
My question is WHY is she on this cover?? What has she done/doing to make me what to buy this?? You can’t shove a nobody down someones throat and make them interested in them, hence her album sales…
thought i was the only 1 asking myself the same damn question! WTF, of all people to place on a damn cover- why Rita Whora? Since when do mediocre people make it on covers?
DefJam/Jay Z / Live Nation Payola.
lol true
She looks gorgeous
Beautiful cover, she look Beautiful.
Anyways………..Does anyone like P***? 😀
Yes I do Like it, Squirt and all 😈
Yes, raunchy, watersports gay p*** featuring hairy daddies and p** young boys, as well as interracial gay p*** >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Squirters gets me off everytime! DP, College F**** and Bukkake (dirty little w****) 🙂
This is queen-like covers teas. Continue to make big movements while half of the haters on the post live off they mommas and welfare!
Ummmm how’d she get an Elle cover? No shade, just wondering….
SHUT UP!
GROW UP!
I cant even hate…. b**** looks good.
Mess….total mess.
But where is Rihanna’s name? Why are you commenting on it?
Everything!!! Hatersssssssssssssssssssssss!!! LMAO at yall. Calm down. She prayed for it and the lord blessed her. Some of yall should try it. Love it Rita!!
You really think Rita got on her knees to pray?? Rita got on her knees for ONE thing for this cover and it wasn’t to pray lol!
Not bad.
Mess.
No she looks good sis.
i love the pics xo
Hate her or love her but you’ll be seeing and hearing a lot from her. The pink dress and Mickey pics are very nice
I think the spread is BEAUTIFUL and so is RITA! I love her song…Hello, Goodbye. I hope she doesn’t allow Jay Z or Beyonce to change her style…because she came in the game knowing who she is Artistically….
She released one album that never did well in Europe and now she’s on the cover of ELLE for woman in music?? Like really??.. I guess jay z keeps paying to shove this girl done our throats. Where’s the music…and why don’t he sign black girls and promo them to the tenth power? the pictures are nice regardless.
this comment is just amazing roc nation sign only light skin girls or white girls it’s a shame because jay z mother is a dark skin woman with negro features like him .
i actually like the pictures.
Dead @ Jay-Z buying this Elle cover for Rita.
Outside of TGJ, nobody even know who this chick is.
She is a never have been.
So we can say Jay-z did the same for Rihanna….
Just be happy for Rita….She hasn’t done anything for me , that makes me go WOW, but I wish her the best.
No he did not. Beyonce got her 1st Elle cover in 2006 and Rih got her first in 2009. Both were already chartoppers. This girl has never had a hit and yet SHE GETS COVERS?
No shade But didn’t Rita have 3#1 in the U.K last yr. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Rihanna is right, blogs are places where ”BITTER” people stay. Why can’t it be she got the cover because she had an album that did very well internationally, a tour that did well,etc.
What type of hater would first think payola, Jay-z,etc as if Elle needs the money or Jay-z can tell a established magazine like Elle what to do.
“because she had an album that did very well internationally, a tour that did well,etc” LOL gurl stop
Her album is certified platinum in the UK and she had 3 number 1 singles. These are facts any c********* should be able to look up.
gurl just stop her album is not platunum…her singles and album sales combine only sold 1mil after all that promo. keep it cute.
Her album is platinum in the UK – Which is only 300k. One of her 3 number 1’s was DJ fresh song and that was her biggest selling single. Also she has not had hits in the USA. ELLE USA IS AMERICAN.
Her album flopped everywhere BUYT the UK, and even in the UK rih outsold her in a week. Her tour was 5 dates in nightclubs. Not a single arena.
From the 1 million sold.most came from the DJ fresh track hot riight now.
DEAD at you on a blog yourself. And the list of so called “achievements” you think she earned for this cover have not happen though..Album was a flop, tour was a flop and there is no etc…
I’m not a hater like you though. 90 percent of the people on sites like these are haters.
And again, you still visit. Leave b*tch! But opinions will be given in abundance 🙂
And is Rita part Asian? Cus that look like a straight up Asian chick on the cover.
Excessive make-up and photoshop hun….
Their worst edition IMO.
I think she looks cute. I like the Micky Mouse cover best.
I won’t lie. She.looks really cute in these pics.
She looks a mess as always
Girl stop hating …Rita looks good
She looks lovely….Werk Ms Rita boo, you did this cover NO shade, she killed it.
She has had more promo in the USA than any singer. Why do u think she flopped_?
HOUSTON
Stay has just passed 100 million views on youtube. Bye beyonce and Rita Whora. Catch up heaux
BALTIMORE
Also,
When in April does beyonce album cone out? She told GQ her LP will drop in april.
It is April 17th now.
BOSTON…….AND NOW DALLAS.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Still outselling your fave.
Chris has drop that A$$ again ….. What show will be next to get canceled? ……SHE DON’T CARE ABOUT Y’ALL.
Chris Brown, 24, also performed. Brown, who was booked to host Akon’s birthday bash at REIGN Nightclub this coming Monday, canceled his appearance because, and I quote, “he didn’t want to be in the same city with Rihanna.” Meanwhile, Rihanna has cancelled her 4th show — tonight’s show in Dallas, TX. Her last 3 cancellations were reportedly due to health reasons.
Chris browns comeback song flopped. I am so happy. Another career shut down by Rih
Ciara, Chris brown, Rita Whiora and Beyonce all got shut down by Rih. Bo down
Looks a trashy cheap mess as usual. Rihanan already done a photpshoot like this in 2008 and she wore the micky mouse ears in her ‘ hard ‘ video in 2009. Catch up heaux! HA HA HA HA HA Beyonce DID NOT drop her single as I predicted and her album was meant to come out in April, as reported in GQ in FEB.
I called it right! I told u beyonce is on her ‘ goodbye tour ‘ and will retire- As for Rita Whora her LP came out in the USA last month, it was available at best buy and failed to chart. LOL LOL Rita whora cannot compete with rihanna and neither can beyonce. Both of them are on the outside looking in.
Rih shut down beyonce, ciara and rita whora once and for all. We all know Jayz bought this cover for her…..shame he cannot BUY HER HITS!
Rihanna is not the new face of Chanel, we can confirm. A spokesperson from the fashion house told Vogue.co.uk that the Vogue cover girl has not been photographed for one of its campaigns – despite a succession of reports to the contrary.
Online speculation first emerged back in January, when the singer shared a picture on her Instagram account – in which she appeared to be wearing Chanel jewellery – alongside the comment: “And that’s a #wrap on my shoot for my new #topsecret ad campaign!!! #2013?. The post was quickly followed by a number of reports suggesting that she could be the new face of the brand’s accessories line.
The singer is a loyal customer of the fashion house, and is often seen wearing Karl Lagerfeld’s designs – further fuelling the rumours that have been circulating for the past two months. It still remains to be seen as to which “top secret ad campaign” Rihanna was referring to in her original post – although her upcoming collaboration with MAC Cosmetics is a likely contender – but it’s definitely not Chanel.
Oh well, she still has Givenchy, Tom Ford and Stella Mccartney. Who does beyonce have? Her fat old body is not wanted by any one in the fashion world.
HA HA HA poor beyonce and Rita Whiore. Even when Rih is sick she still shits all over h***. She has no competition.
In 24 hours since she was announced sick: Stay has been certified 100 million views on youtube
UNA is 30k copies away from Platinum in the USA
Stay is still in top 5 on BB 100
Pour it up remix is number 1 on Hip hop airplay chart
Right now is now being used as NBA play off finals track
Your’re mad beyonce and rita? Even when she is sick, she is shutting beyonce and rita down. No one – and I mean no one can STOP RIH. Not even Gaga.
Beyonce just is not GOOD enough to compete with Rihanan. Even if Rih is sick or does not do promo, BEYONCE has not got what it takes to shut rih down.
Bow down b****.
Somebody be LYING

Richard,
Chanel have never had a black model walk for them or use a black woman to sell their products. Not even Naomi Campbell or Iman. Karl has just hired Diane Kruger and Gisele. His loss!
Tom Ford just gave an interview and said HIS CLIENTS WANT TO DRESS LIEK RIH. Simple, rih will be the new face of Tom ford fashion and makeup and BEYONCE WILL ROT.
Givechy said rihanna is the face of her generation- LOL LOL no one in fashion has ever this about beyonce at such a young age. Stella Mccartney based her collection on rihanna So, Tom ford, Givenchy and Stella Mccartney are all waiting to hire rih. No one high fashion house WANTS FAT BEYONCE LOL
Shame Rihannas not a fashion model then! Beyonce gets praised by legends like Stevie Wonder, Tina Turner, Diana Ross, Anita Baker, Bono to name a few. Not to mention a large number of her peers stan for her without just saying shes ‘hot’ or ‘dope’. When will Rihanna have that much respect in MUSIC?
RIHANNA WAS NEVER THE FACE OF CHANEL HOWEVER GIVENCHY WAS THE SECRET SHOOT. YOU DO KNOW CHANEL PAYS RIH TO WEAR THEIR CLOTHES AND ACCESSORY RIGHT? RIH IS THE FACE FOR GIVENCHY AND SHE ALSO IS DOING A MULTIMILLION DOLLAR PARTNERSHIP WITH MAC AS WELL
So she is still winning and she has till shut beyonce DOWN!
Rih dont give a f*** about Stevie wonder, or anita bake. She is only wanting approval from Madonna – the queen of pop, not these n**** singers who cannot outsell MADONNA.
like the micky mouse one more.
Mickey Mouse Ears S** Kitten Programming.
Old Illuminati Special.
Sold Your Soul Rita.
look at her! resembling an avocado n s***
YES WINNING…..even when sick. Rih is the Face and and voice of the NBA play offs. Right now is the official anthem for the nBA play offs. All that juicy promo; thanks NBA for giving rihanna her next number 1 in the USA.
Right now NBA play OFF and song of the summer
HA, wining!
Rih is the face and voice of the NBA play offs. Her song, right now and her image from her tour will be used in commercials and promo for the NBA play offs. The NBA picked Rihanan because she is the MVP of music who shuts down the competition with skill and talent and the perfect fit for NBA fans, due her youth and popular music.
HA HA HA HA BEYONCE STAY LOOSING…WHERE IS RITA WHORA?_
HA HA HA The other day she was supposed to be the new face of chanel? What happened to that? Oh they quickly DENIED it they were so embarrassed HA HA HA.
Lets hope she doesn’t get dropped from this.
She did NOT SAY CHANEL. WE ALL assumed it was, but CHANEL IS RACIST, THEY HAVE BLACK FACES. Even Naomi campbell has never done chanel. NO black models for for chanel too. So, think before you laugh.
I think It is Givency. Ricardo Tichi from Givenchy designed rih tour clothes; he called Rih the face of her generation; he is not racist, he hired naomi campbell last year and sends rih letters, free clothes and custom bags. He made rih a special Bob marley bag. The picture she took was a cover of vanity fair, with her wearing chanel clothes. Either way, Chanel do NOT HIRE BLACK WOMEN, SO BEYONCE STANDS NO CHANCE.
NBA is 100% confirmed. JUST SEEN THE COMMERCIAL ON THEIR WEB SITE. RIH looks amazing. HA HA HA HA HA Try harder hater. STILL WINNING
Yes YOU sure did say she was though looool. Looks like you got excited over nothing and they were quick to deny it. AND you said Beyoncé was loosing cos of it. How is she loosing when she has bigger endorsement deals never gets DROPPED unlike your fave.
Why would the NBA drop Rih from their commericial for the play offs? She hottest singer right now. Who did you think they were gonna hire?
Flop rita whora?
Beyonce and her wack songs?
Right now IS PERFECT FOR THE NBA!
I don’t know, the same reasons Nivea and Covergirl did? LOLOLOLOL!
Madonna got dropped from pepsi in 1988.
Madonna>>>>>>> Beyonce.
Beyonce is the face of H&M and pepsi. Why should she care?
Because she is not on the charts and seems to be scared to drop. Her LP was meant to come out in april, but she git scared. That is why she cares. After her tour raps in August, that will be the end. We will not see her anymore.
Rih was the face of H&M in 2008 as well as other brands. She has tom Ford and Givenchy sucking her d***. Why should she give a f*** about chanel?
Will beyonce ever release an album?
Beyonces H&M campaign is way bigger than Rihannas was. And she faced an Armani campaign before Rihanna. Why don’t they make her the face of their brands then? The shade is they wont. Beyonce has bigger endorsement deals than Rihanna. Deal.
Rih’s armani deal sold out – and it was for clothes too. This H&M deal with beyonce will flop. Beyonce is to fat for H&M consumers and she will never TOP lana del ray. Beyonce never modeled clothes for armani cos she is to fat for haute coutre. Chanel will not make her the face in the same reason they will never WORK with Beyonce.
Rihanna has bigger endorsment deals than Beyonce’
Covrgirl
Nike
Clinuque
Nivea
Armani FASHION
MAC
Vita coco water
Barbados tourism
River Island
NBA
H&M
Rumored Givenchy
Rih gets better bigger deal from many genre’s
Covergirl did not drop her. Nivea dropped her cos she was too s***. Guess what? Pepsi dropped madonna back in teh day too. Told you she was the NEW MADONNA, while beyoce is no one.
Madonna owns BEYONCE ASS. Rih is the new madonna.
WINNING! F*** cover girl – she is doing a better make up line with MAC where she will get more money. F*** nivea, she will NOT TURN DOWN HER S** APPEAL – SHE IS THE QUEEN OF POP AND QUEENS RUN S***.
Beyonce has had
Pepsi
H&M GLOBAL
Loreal
Vizio
Armani
Tommy Hilfigure
Nintendo
Japanese Water
Samantha Thavesa
And more…
So yeah, like i said, her deals are bigger, WHERES RIHANNAS TOUR SPONSOR LOLOLOLOL!
Beyonce’s handlers put strict restrictions on concert photography during the kick-off of Beyonce’s Mrs Carter Show world tour at Kombank Arena in Belgrade, Serbia on Monday. Only approved photos were allowed to be released to the media. Fans took to Twitter and other social media to comment on the cheap stage sets and the overall poor quality of the show.
Chris Brown, 24, also performed. Brown, who was booked to host Akon’s birthday bash at REIGN Nightclub this coming Monday, canceled his appearance because, and I quote, “he didn’t want to be in the same city with Rihanna.” Meanwhile, Rihanna has cancelled her 4th show — tonight’s show in Dallas, TX. Her last 3 cancellations were reportedly due to health reasons.
LIES the Serbian critics and celebs had nothing but praise for the show. Worry about Rihannas diamonds tour, shes getting dragged left right and center for being ‘sick’
Sybil got that info from Sandra Rose….A KNOW BEYONCE HATER.
Lol says it all. I wouldn’t mind, but shes boasting on and on about fashion, when Rihanna is not a model by occupation, and when beauty fades, whos gonna be praising Rihanna then? Because when Beyonce was Rihannas age she was getting praised by legends on the REGULAR and still is. Rihanna doesn’t get praised half as much in music like Beyonce does. Says it all.
And that was while she was still scooping up deals by people like Tommy Hilfiger and Armani at the same time.
Black dont crack, She is west indian like Naomi campbell ( naomi smokes and was on drugs, as did grace jones, who is also west indian) Rih will age well. Also, she is very creative like MADONNA so she will re invent herself while beyonce fades away like all other RMB divas.
Rih does get praised and even if she does not…..we all know she is the black madonna and will have a career like madonna, while beyonce will fade out like all other RNB diva’s
‘
Lmao please. She aint a model so sit down. She is NOT the black Madonna, not even close.
Rita looks extremely beautiful and ethnic on the cover. There’s no way she’s white. She definitely comes from an ethnic background of some sort.
She’s on the cover because Roc Nation paid a huge sum for her to be on it. Plus, she was successful in the UK. Roc Nation f***** up with her promo. Why the hell was she only heavily promoted, musically, in the UK and just a few other European countries?
Jay should have had her featured on songs with the biggest names in music in the US months before the release of her first single then dropped the single in the US. She also should have collaborated with successful and famous world Djs months before her first single then dropped it all over the rest of the world. Any fool would know that!
And Roc Nation tried to hard to make Rita into another Rihanna and being the young, needy young ladt Rita is, she fed into it. Funny how you immature b****** don’t remember when Jay tried to make Rihanna the next Bey and her hair color, style, and music videos were similar to Bey’s and everyone kept calling her out for copying Bey! Then they gave her Fefe Dobson’s and Victoria Backham’s styles!
Madonna got dropped from pepsi in 1988.
Rih got dropped from Nivea
YES! She is the black madonna, indeed.
Finally this b**** looks half decent.
I like the different clothing ensembles. Still don’t like her tho.
