Rita Ora on female empowerment: 'I love women who are proud of who they are'

'I Will Never Let You Down' singer Rita Ora has revealed that she's a great admirer of strong women and she takes a lot of inspiration from the likes of Madonna and Beyoncé, because they both embody that spirit. 

Speaking to Britain's Daily Star newspaper, the hitmaker explained that self-confidence, strength and inner beauty are all traits she values, and she sees them all in two of the world's biggest female solo artists:

"I’m a female who loves empowering women and obviously Beyoncé is one those women. I was her biggest fan, I loved everything she stood for. Same goes for Madonna for having incredible confidence – I couldn’t speak when I met her. I love women who are proud of who they are.”

Ora, meanwhile, features in the upcoming film adaptation of 'Fifty Shades Of Grey' and added that taking that role might open up a different world to her: "It will probably lead to more sexy parts. But I want to play a super hero – Wonder Woman she’s my favourite.”
