Rita Ora has revealed that she is flattered to be compared with Gwen Stefani and Rihanna.

The 'R.I.P.' singer, who recently admitted she takes her clothes as seriously as her music, told more! magazine that she has no problem with being mentioned in the same breath as such style icons:

"I love Gwen Stefani. She's so cool and her style is amazing. Clearly I'm influenced by her red lips and blonde hair! She's one of my idols. I love her a lot, and I'll wear the comparison high on my shoulder.

"I like anyone who can be confident with themselves. Also, Rihanna's hot, so to be compared to her is a huge compliment."

The 21-year-old, who releases new single, 'How We Do (Party),' in the UK today, went on to explain why she will never be seen wearing jeans:

"I hate jeans. I don't think they're flattering - I haven't worn them in years. I love clothes that make me look sexy."
