Rita Ora, interview |
There’s a thin line between love and rape.
And singer Rita Ora walks on both sides of it when talking about a
relationship she had with a 26-year-old man when she was just 14.
“It made me feel great, and I didn’t care what he did or how old he
was,” Ora said in a 2013 TV interview, adding, “It’s child abuse,
really, isn’t it?”
Ora’s revelation was unearthed by authors Douglas Wight and Jenn Wiley
while researching their unauthorized bio, “Hot Right Now: The Definitive
Biography of Rita Ora,” according to The Sun.
The book includes direct quotes from Ora’s 2013 appearance on the UK show “The Conversation with Amanda de Cadenet.”
The 24-year-old singer said her romance with an older man was her very
first relationship, and occurred when she was a student at the Sylvia
Young Theatre School in London.
