'I’m a boy girl': Rita Ora confesses that she likes do it like a dude while remaining feminine

RITA ORA

There is no doubt that she's one of 2012's breakout musicians. However without her standout style it is questionable whether Rita Ora would have come as far as she has today in the industry. 

 Laying back wearing nothing but a tuxedo jacket, the 22-year-old told Harper's Bazaar that when it comes to her wardrobe she's not afraid to mix things up. Wearing a white trouser suit by Alexander McQueen, Rita stuns in a stunning portrait featured in the January issue of the publication as he wears a coating of scarlet lipstick. 

 Showing off her peroxide free natural locks, Ora holds her hand to her chest as she gazes at the photographer while sporting jewellery by Maison Martin Margiela. Speaking about her style, Rita told the fashion magazine: 'I’m a boy girl.

 I love my trainers and mixing comfort with sleek, clean lines.' 'I love flamboyancy and glamour and elegance. I love that over-exaggerated style.' In the second image, Rita shows of her enviable figure in an elegant optical illusion white jumpsuit by Stella McCartney. Holding one hand to her head as she cuts a seductive figure, the Yugoslavia-born star shows off the inkings on her inner arms. 

 Rita also spoke about her influences in the music industry when she growing up, noting Beyoncé Knowles and No Doubt's Gwen Stefani as her main influences.

Love rat Jermain Defoe spoke of how in love he was with Alexandra Burke... just days after cheating on her with model

She nay have been pictured looking happy surrounded by hunky dancers, just days after allegations of her boyfriend cheating on her emerged, but things are about to get a whole lot worse for Alexandra Burke. It has emerged the 'love rat' footballer, who has cheated on girlfriends before, spoke brazenly of their relationship on a football show, just days after meeting model Laura Brown, 23, in a hotel room. 

On Sky1 sports panel show A League of Their Own, he said his relationship with Alex was going well and his new girlfriend was giving him vocal lessons. The Sun reported that the Spurs striker said: 'Things are good. She’s been giving me some vocal lessons', on the show which was recorded weeks ago. 

Now bosses are frantically trying to edit the show before it airs in May with panellist Jack Whitehall even saying to Defoe, 'You’ve had more a*** than the Big Brother diary room chair'. As Alexandra, who won X Factor in 2008, tried to put on a brave face by gyrating against her male backup dancers, Defoe has remained strangely silent on his alleged cheating. 

 She kept her Twitter followers updated with her movements and cryptically uploaded a photo of her sipping red wine with her team, saying 'wine helps'. It was alleged today that her English footballer beau Jermain Defoe enjoyed a hotel fling with Geordie model Laura Brown, 23. She claims to have had s*x with the Spurs striker in Newcastle, having met him in person only twice previously.

I cant pay that much:Adele refuses to pay £75 for her helicopter to land in hotel field

She has millions in the bank, but singer Adele refused to land her helicopter in a hotel field - because the £75 fee was 'too expensive'.

Hotelier Peter Hands says he was stunned when he got a call asking if Adele's chopper could use his helipad in the heart of the Forest of Dean, Glos.

But he was even more shocked when the caller told him the £75 fee was too much and they would look elsewhere.

'We had a call last Sunday morning asking if her helicopter could land on our helipad by the hotel and how much it would cost,' said Peter, who runs the historic Speech House Hotel near Cinderford.

'When I told him there was a standard £75 fee he said that was too much - which is a bit rich coming from one of today's most successful multi millionaire pop stars.

'They also asked about arranging a taxi to take her to Mitcheldean for 10am. It was a mystery as to what she was doing in the Forest.'
