Rita Ora has shot down claims that she is the subject of cheating allegations made against rap artist Jay Z.
The musician took to Twitter on Tuesday to set the record straight on reports that she was taunting his wife Beyonce over the cheating scandal, insisting she had ‘nothing but the utmost respect’ for the Lemonade singer.
Rita, 25, became the latest woman named in connection with Beyonce’s new track Lemonade, in which she appears to blame ‘Becky with the good hair’ for a tryst with her superstar husband.
Rita wrote on Tuesday night: ‘I never usually address tabloid gossip but let me be clear, these rumours are false.’
She followed up with: ‘I have nothing but the upmost respect (sic) for Beyonce. Let’s continue enjoying Lemonade.’
The previous evening she had been putting on a defiant display with pal Nick Grimshaw as Beyonce fans made the initial links between Rita and Jay Z.
And Rita has certainly been keeping them guessing by posting a cryptic Instagram picture on Tuesday that featured the official film poster for the Elizabeth Taylor-fronted film, Ash Wednesday.
The 1973 drama, directed by Larry Peerce, focuses on a middle-aged woman who is worried she’s losing her husband.
In a desperate bid to save her marriage, the protagonist undergoes extensive cosmetic surgery in Switzerland in the hopes her husband will be swayed by her youthful new looks.
Rita’s mysterious post was met by a mass of confused comments from social media users, many of whom referred to the cheating rumours.
The 25-year-old singer shared the official film poster on her account, which shows a glamorous Liz Taylor holding a pearl necklace up to her face.
Rita also treated her fans to several Snapchats as she partied the night away with close pal Nick in Hollywood.
