“I’m very excited to be working with Range Media Partners,” stated Ora. “I’ve always approached my career with a 360 viewpoint on the industry. It’s been an integral part of my vision, and it was essential to partner with a team that is fully aligned and experts across music, film/TV, and branding. We have been off to an immediate great start, and I’m really looking forward to all the things we will do together.”
Ora’s film and television credits also include co-hosting “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” and the “MTV EMAs”; serving as a judge on “The Voice Australia”; and acting roles in the “Fifty Shades of Grey” franchise, “Pokémon: Detective Pikachu,” “Twist” and “Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight”.

Her latest album “You & I” follows previous releases “Bang,” a collaborative EP with Grammy-winning DJ and producer Imanbek; “Phoenix,” which amassed more than four billion streams and spawned four platinum singles in the U.K.; and “Ora,” which entered at No. 1 on the U.K. charts and was certified platinum there. This summer, Ora debuted the single “Ask & You Shall Receive” and she’s currently in the studio, working on new music to be released in early 2025.
Ora recently launched the haircare brand brand Typebea, which she co-founded with Anna Lahey, and celebrated the one-year anniversary of her multi-season collaboration with Primark with the release of the Rita Ora x Primark autumn/winter 2024 collection.
