Rita Ora - You & I Visual

 Rita Ora’s visual for
 ‘ You & I ‘ a real life short film of her nuptials to acclaimed filmmaker Taika Waititi in their whimsical home in the city of lost Angels last year. Many speculated on how mum the two have been since tying the knot but judging by the immense work Rita was putting in to her latest album, there is no question to what the power couple have been up to! 







Rita has expressed her frustration with album creation recently inking a deal allowing her creative control. ‘You & I’ was not about creating chart stoppers but creating a project from the heart. Authentic emotion outlining her love, devotion & heartache through heart stopping moments in life. An authentic ode to her reality of a beautiful young lady learning to humbly step into womanhood with grace and beauty. No longer chasing but receiving all the abundance life has to offer.  




 Rita is not only a singer, songwriter & producer but she is also an aspiring actress. Starring in several movies to date Rita’s latest role is in the fantasy film ‘ WONDERWALL ‘ acting  alongside Carrie Fisher. The June 2023 release is a fantastical tale of a 12 year old girl caught between two worlds. Rita Ora’s has proven she is a force to be reckoned with. I am sure she is not stopping anytime soon. Proving she has had all the ingredients to create a life she is surely proud of. 




No doubt ‘ You & I ‘ has become a chart stopper nonetheless. Re Rubbing Fatboy Slims ‘ Praise You ‘ Reinventing the track now titled  ‘ Praising You’ has reached #1 on American Dance charts catapulting her new album ‘ You and I ‘ to the forefront of summer releases. This is Ritas  moment.  Marrying a filmmaker is just the set up audiences needed to have a birds-eye view of her special day. Why not save it for the music video. No acting here. Rita is truly in love and we are happy to see it. Recently posing in Aussie Vogue with her new husband is all the power couple vibes we need! Congratulations Mrs. in order. Rita is IN FACT taking over the world and we are absolutely here for it!
