Ora appears on the July cover of Marie Claire magazine:
I would rip my T-shirts and be really punk and not clean. And I would have blonde hair, really dark eyebrows, red lipstick, lots of fake rings that made my fingers go green. I wouldn’t be smelling that great…. But me and my friends, we were really, like, rebel-y. I feel like I lived a lot when I shouldn’t have.
Role in movie ‘Southpaw’
In her Marie Claire interview, Ora discusses her role as a drug addict who attempts to seduce a boxer played by Jake Gyllenhaal in Southpaw:
I arrived on the set, and the makeup artist said, ‘You’re kind of ready to go onstage.’ I’m like, ‘You know I’m playing a crack whore?’ Which shows: Don’t look at me when I’m waking up.

It was the best experience ever and it’s such a great kind of opener for me to kind of get into the Hollywood movies. It’s just a really, really fun experience, and the soundtrack is awesome.

Without complaining, without being moany, because this is what I have wanted to do all my life, I think it’s that people may forget I’m just a 23-year-old girl who wants to be in love. And even though I live and breathe my job, I still want someone to want me. That’s how every girl feels.

I’ve definitely grown up a bit, but I’m not a completely different person, I’ve just experienced a bit more: I’ve been in a relationship, I’ve seen what happens to people, I’ve even seen the drug life [around me]. Being around music is a scary place, you see how it really changes people, so I’ve experienced a lot of things – being around it all just kinda woke me up.

Rita Ora interview
Seacrest interviews Ora during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about the meaning behind her song I Will Never Let You Down.
It’s basically a love song you can dance to. I wrote this with a really special person, and it was the first time I ever kind of opened my doors up for somebody I knew personally. So, this song was written out of love and I [liked it], it was convenient for the time it was written. But you know, people move on and move forward, but the song still has the same message.

That’s why I was obsessed with it; learning what men don’t understand about women and what women don’t understand about men. I was obsessed with the painting a long time ago, and then I got it done six months ago.
