Rita Ora has taken a swipe at ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris after he denied working on her scrapped second album.
The Masked Singer judge, who dated the Dumfries-born DJ between 2013 to 2014, has since tied the knot with director Taika Waititi.
The former couple's split turned bitter as Rita, 32, claimed Calvin, 38, blocked her from performing I Will Never Let You Down - which he wrote and produced - at the Teen Choice Awards. Soon after that incident and their split, Rita second album was scrapped prompting many fans to speculate it was because Calvin refused to sign off on several songs.
Rita touched on the row in a recent interview with British GQ after interest in the spat resurged following her appearance on Louis Theroux Interviews... this past November.
Following the episode airing, writer George Griffiths, who works for the Official Charts Company, described Theroux's interview with Ora as his “own personal Princess Diana Newsnight moment”.
He argued that “if rita’s calvin harris produced second album (i will never let you down was the first of MANY tracks) hadn’t been torpedoed she would have probably been one of the biggest pop stars in the world for like 2 years, i have never gotten over it.”
Wasting no time to clear up the rumours, the Calvin savagely responded: “Entire thing is a myth, there is one unreleased song i worked on and it isn’t good.”
Rita had told Louis she had been recording for “two or three years straight” before Roc Nation shelved plans to release her second album. She said: “There was a whole moment that was about to happen, I recorded a music video and they scrapped it. I felt really disappointed like I’d let them down.”

Spanning three time periods and two continents, “Past Lives,” the directorial debut of Celine Song (“Endlings”), tells the story of two childhood friends and sweethearts pulled apart by time, circumstance, and fate.

The word “romantic” doesn’t have much place in cinema these days, serving mostly as a modifier for “comedy”. The term “women’s picture” has also passed out of favor since its ’40s heyday, regardless of the fact that the films that exemplified it usually featured strong female characters and almost always pushed back at the pressures of male-run society. With her feature debut Past Lives, which screened to a double standing ovation this week in the Premieres strand at Sundance, playwright Celine Song has killed two birds with one stone, creating an elegant and unexpectedly mesmerizing character piece that speaks profoundly to the concept of love in the modern age while using an intelligent and ambitious, but still very relatable woman to do so.
