Rita Ora is a British singer, songwriter, and actress. She is known for her songs “R.I.P.,” “How We Do (Party),” “Your Song,” “Anywhere,” “Let You Love Me,” and, in a featured role, “Hot Right Now.” She has also been billed as Rita Sahatçiu Ora.
She was born in Pristina, Yugoslavia, to a Kosovan Albanian family. She is the daughter of Vera (Bajraktari), a psychiatrist, and Besnik Sahatçiu, a pub owner. Her father is a Muslim and her mother is Catholic. Her family moved to the U.K in 1991, because of the persecution of Albanians in Kosovo, and she was raised in Notting Hill, London. Her surname, Sahatçiu, is derived from the Turkish word saatçi, which means “watchmaker.” Her family later added “Ora” to her full name; the word means “time” in Albanian. She is a citizen of the U.K. and Kosovo. In 2015, she was named Honorary Ambassador of Kosovo.
When asked about her ethnicity in an interview, Rita stated that she is “100% from Kosovo,” here. A picture of Rita’s father can be seen here. A picture of Rita’s mother can be seen here. Rita is married to New Zealand actor and filmmaker Taika Waititi.
Rita’s paternal grandfather was Besim Sahatçiu, a film and theatre director (the son of Adem Sahatçiu and Besa). Besim was born in Pejë, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, now Kosovo.
Rita’s maternal grandfather was named Osman Bajraktari. Osman was the Albanian consul to Russia, then part of the USSR.
She looks Romani gypsy and Italian.
The word “gypsy” is an ethnic slur.
Looks totally non-white.
She looks white. Black people don’t look like her.
this girl doesn’t look European in the slightest and nor is there anything in the Albanian genetic makeup that can explain this, average Middle Eastern girl looks whiter than her
She’s not black
the average Middle Eastern girl doesnt look whiter than her
She looks 100% Romani Gypsy. Ignorant blacks try to claim her but never saw a Gypsy in their life and never been to Albania in their life. There is no blacks in Kosovo and Albania. Not only blacks have those features. Melanesians and Polynesians can have those features also. If Rita Ora is black then Kylie Jenner is black now. Maybe her mom didn’t tell about her Gypsy heritage.
who the fuck said black people claimed her you bigot.no black person has ever said she was black. plus kylie jenner isn’t black either so get you’re racist ass out of earth
“Gypsy” is an ethnic slur.
She doesn’t look Black or Albanian. She looks like a Gypsy with dirty blonde, a tan and heavy makeup. White girls all over Europe have pale skin, thin lips and look white. White girls wished they look like that. You can tell she’s Gypsy by her wheatish skin and Asian features.

“White girls wished they looked like that.”
Like what? Rita Ora? Gypsies?
First of all that’s an extremely racist thing to say, and not true whatsoever. lol!!!
White girls don’t all have thin lips, a lot of white people have fuller lips.
Drea K, “gypsy” is an ethnic slur, hun.
You really need to stop using the word “gypsy”. It’s an ethnic slur. It’s not to be thrown around casually.
How do you know what Rita wishes she was? The Bible talks strongly about accepting who you are. Don’t believe it? https://www.openbible.info/topics/accepting_yourself
