Rita Sahatçiu Ora (born Rita Sahatçiu; 26 November 1990) is a British singer and actress. Her debut studio album, Ora, released in 2012, debuted at number one in the United Kingdom. The album contained the UK number-one singles, "R.I.P." and "How We Do (Party)". After reaching the peak position as a featured act on DJ Fresh's "Hot Right Now", Ora became the artist with the most number-one singles on the UK Singles Chart in 2012, with three consecutive singles reaching the top position.[3] She was nominated for three Brit Awards at the 2013 ceremony.[4]

The first single planned from her second album, "I Will Never Let You Down", became her fourth UK number one when it debuted at the top of the charts in 2014.[5] Also in 2014, Ora featured on Iggy Azalea's single, "Black Widow", which reached number three in the US. In 2015, Ora became a coach on the fourth series of The Voice UK, and later that year, a judge on the twelfth series of The X Factor.

Early life

Ora was born in Pristina, Kosovo[a] to Kosovar Albanian parents. Her mother, Vera Sahatçiu (née Bajraktari), is a psychiatrist, and her father, Besnik Sahatçiu, is an economist and a pub owner.[6][7][8] Her mother is Catholic and her father is Muslim.[6] Ora has an older sister, Elena, and a younger brother, Don. She was named after the favourite film star of her film director grandfather Besim Sahatçiu, Rita Hayworth.[9] She was born as Rita Sahatçiu ("watchmaker" in Albanian), but her father later added Ora ("watch" or "clock" in Albanian) to the family surname so it could be easily pronounced.[1]

Ora's parents moved to England in 1991, when she was a year old.[6] Her family left Kosovo for political reasons, because of the persecution of ethnic Albanians initiated by Milošević's regime. They subsequently immigrated to England, settling in London.[10] She grew up near Portobello Road in West London,[11] and attended St Cuthbert with St Matthias CE Primary School in Earls Court, following which she graduated from Sylvia Young Theatre School and then St Charles Catholic Sixth Form College. She began singing from an early age.[12][13]

Music career

2007–10: Career beginnings

Ora began performing at open mic sessions around London and, occasionally, in her father's pub.[9] In 2007, Ora had her first music release when she appeared on Craig David's track titled "Awkward", and then again in 2008 on "Where's Your Love", featuring Tinchy Stryder, for which she also appeared in the music video.[14][15] She featured on two songs of James Morrison's album, Songs for You, Truths for Me, as backing vocalist.[16]

She auditioned for Eurovision: Your Country Needs You on BBC One to be the British contestant for the Eurovision Song Contest 2009 but later withdrew from the competition after a few episodes as she "decided this challenge wasn't for her".[17][18] Her manager, Sarah Stennett (who also worked with Ellie Goulding, Jessie J and Conor Maynard), later told HitQuarters that Ora had entered the competition because at the time she felt it was her only chance at finding success.[19] Her withdrawal followed her first meeting with her manager when she was reassured that she had genuine potential to make it as a solo artist and that performing in Eurovision would hinder rather than help her chances.[19] Stennett got in touch with Jay Brown of the American label, Roc Nation, and told him about Ora. Brown asked Ora to fly out to New York where she met with Jay Z, the founder of the label.[19][20] Ora signed with Roc Nation in December 2009, within 48 hours of her arrival to the United States.[19] The same year, she made a cameo on Jay Z's video for "Young Forever".[21] In 2010, Ora made a cameo on "Over" video by Drake.[22] After being signed, Ora recorded an album and wanted to release it, but her label advised against it and she started to work on other material for her debut album.[9]

2011–13: Breakthrough and Ora

Throughout 2011, Ora released covers and videos about working on her debut album on YouTube.[23] The videos caught the attention of DJ Fresh, who at that time was looking for a female vocalist for his song, "Hot Right Now".[24] Ora featured on the single that was released on 12 February 2012, reaching number one on the UK Singles Chart.[25] During February 2012, Ora was also the opening act on the UK concerts from Drake's Club Paradise Tour. Ora worked with Ester Dean, will.i.am, Chase & Status, The-Dream and Stargate on her debut studio album, and took two years to completely finish it.[26][27]

The first UK single from her debut album, "R.I.P." (featuring Tinie Tempah), was released on 6 May 2012.[28] Produced by Chase & Status, the song debuted at the top of the UK Singles Chart, becoming her first solo UK number one.[29] On 12 August 2012, "How We Do (Party)" was released and reached number one in the UK and Ireland. It was Ora's second UK number one as a solo artist, and third overall in 2012.[30]

Whilst supporting Coldplay on their Mylo Xyloto Tour, she later announced that her debut album would be titled Ora.[31] It was released on 27 August 2012 and debuted at the top of the UK Albums Chart.[3] Ora was nominated for Best UK/Ireland Act, Best New Artist, and Push Artist at the 2012 MTV Europe Music Awards.[32] In September 2012, it was announced that Ora will be the opening act on the UK concerts from Usher's Euphoria Tour set to start in January 2013. Eventually, the tour was postponed due to Usher's "professional and personal commitments".[33] From 23 October through to 30 October 2012, Ora embarked on her first headlining tour, Ora Tour, a five-date US tour supported by MTV.

"Shine Ya Light", released on 4 November 2012, became Ora's fourth consecutive top ten single in the UK, peaking at number ten.[34][35] On 28 November 2012, Ora performed as a special guest at the concert held in Tirana, Albania for the 100th Anniversary of the Independence of Albania.[36] Ora embarked on her twelve-date UK "Radioactive Tour", from 28 January through to 13 February 2013, to support her debut album. She was nominated for three awards at the 2013 Brit Awards, including the Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act.[4]

2013–present: Upcoming second studio album

On 14 January 2013, Ora revealed that her second album would be clearer and have more direction than the first one.[37] On 26 February 2013, she revealed to Digital Spy that she had been working with Dev Hynes for the second album and that the record shows a different angle to a "party girl".[38][39]

On 23 March 2013, Ora performed as a special guest at Le Bal de la Rose du Rocher, an event organised by Karl Lagerfeld in Monte Carlo in aid of the Princess Grace Foundation.[40] On 24 May 2013, Ora was the headline act on 1Xtra Arena/In New Music We Trust stage at Radio 1's Big Weekend.[41] On 28 June 2013, Ora performed on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury.[42]

On 30 January 2014, she announced the lead single from her second studio album would be called "I Will Never Let You Down", produced by Calvin Harris.[43][44] On 18 May 2014, the song debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart, making it Ora's fourth overall single to reach the apex of the chart, and third as a solo artist.[45]

Ora featured on Iggy Azalea's single titled "Black Widow", from her album The New Classic.[46] "Black Widow" peaked at number four in the UK, and became Ora's first top ten song on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, peaking at number three.[47] On 14 December, Ora performed at the 2014 telecast of Christmas in Washington, filmed at the National Building Museum.[48] On 22 February 2015, at the 87th Academy Awards, she performed the Academy Award-nominated song "Grateful", which appears in the film Beyond the Lights.[49]

She released the song "Poison" on 28 June 2015 as the first single from her second studio album. The song debuted at number three on the UK Singles Chart becoming her sixth top five single in the country.[50] A new single featuring Chris Brown titled "Body on Me" was released on 7 August 2015.[51]

Personal life

"My parents brought us [my elder sister and younger brother] to this country with the hope and the dream that we could get a decent education, which is so important for our aspirations and for what we want to achieve in our lives. I grew up in Britain, a country that has given me so much for which I am grateful, but I will always have a special place in my heart for my home town and Kosovo."

—Ora speaking in 2015 on her move from Pristina, Kosovo to London.[85]

Ora is of Albanian ethnicity and speaks Albanian. Asked about her religion, Ora stated: "I believe in God and I’m of Muslim culture, but my parents never forced me. Above all, they raised me with the idea that I could make my own choices and have my own beliefs."[86] She considers herself a feminist.[87][88]

On 10 July 2015, Ora was named an honorary ambassador of the Republic of Kosovo from the country's president, Atifete Jahjaga, at the Embassy of Kosovo in London.[85][89] Ora, who was joined at the ceremony by her parents, Vera and Besnik Sahatçiu, and former British Prime Minister and his wife, Tony and Cherie Blair, stated she was "overwhelmed" by the honour and pledged to help the youth of Kosovo.[85]
