Rita Ora: “I Didn’t Expect My Success”

Published: Friday 4th Jul 2014 by David

Next February, the ‘Young Single and Sexy’ Rita Ora will storm movie theatres worldwide with her role in Universal’s film adaptation of ‘Fifty Shades of Grey.’

On course to release her US debut LP before that, this week saw the singer reflect on her success in music, film and fashion during an interview with ‘Europa Press’, revealing that she could not have prepared for the monumental winning streak she now fronts.

Her explanation below…

I didn’t expect anything. I’ve been raised to work at my own craft. My parents worked really hard to raise us, so our morals have always been that if you want something to do, do it yourself. I’m forever grateful for Jay Z, he gave me a chance to live my dreams and be a singer! I didn’t expect it, but I took it with both hands and I listened and I was a sponge, I absorbed it. I can’t believe it!

We know why we love her, so we ask you….

Why do you think Rita has been so successful?
