Rita Ora Will Debut Her New Single Live at the EMAs
The 'Lonely Together' singer announced some VERY exciting news about her performance...
Rita Ora is hosting the 2017 MTV EMAs when they hit London next month and she just revealed part of her MAJOR plans!
Ever the multi-hyphenate, her host title is accompanied by nominee and performer because Rita doesn't ever just do one thing - and it sounds like her "surprise" performance is going to give us everything.
The star appeared on the revived TRL as a special guest host where she announced she will debut her brand new single 'Anywhere' live on the EMAs stage.
And I'm caught in the middle
I caught the edge of a knife
And it hurts just a little
And I know, and I know, and I know
And I know that I can't be your friend
It's my head or my heart
And I'm caught in the middle
My hands are tied, but not tight enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh lord, here we go
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Eyes wide shut and it feels like the first time (Oh)
Before the rush to my blood
Was too much and we flatlined (Oh)
And I know, and I know, and I know
And I know just how this ends
Now I'm all messed up
And it feels like the first time (Oh)
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
My hands are tied, but not tight enough
You're the high that I can't give up
Oh lord, here we go
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
At the bottom of a bottle
You're the poison in the wine
And I know
I can't change you, and I
I won't change
I might hate myself tomorrow
But I'm on my way tonight
Let's be lonely together
A little less lonely together
Let's be lonely together
(Let's be lonely lonely now)
(Let's be lonely lonely now)
A little less lonely together
A little less lonely now
A little less lonely now
A little less lonely now
NEW RITA MUSIC. AN AWARDS SHOW DEBUT. THIS IS GOING TO BE AMAZING.
"Well, it's actually something brand new that I'm going to give the EMAs," she told the TRL hosts, choosing New Song over 'Your Song'. Queen.
"I think it's gonna be fun because at this moment in time at the world that we're living in I think it's so important for unity and for everybody to come together, so the underlying [theme] of this awards show is celebrating each other's goodness and grace and happiness."
The 'Lonely Together' singer was spotted filming the super-fun music video for 'Anywhere' around New York this week, making her way through six (!) outfits and scenes in one day, wearing everything from a wedding dress to a stunning sequined jumpsuit in Times Square.
Judging from the pics we've seen, the video looks incredible so we cannot wait to see what she has in store for the performance!
Rita is nominated for Best Look at the EMAs, where Taylor Swift leads the nominations with six, while Shawn Mendes, Kendrick Lamar, Ed Sheeran and Miley Cyrus are all up for several awards.

But I can taste you on the tip of my tongue
Alarm without no warning
You're by my side and we've got smoke in our lungs
Last night we were way up, kissing in the back of the cab
And then you say love, baby, let's go back to my flat
And when we wake up, never had a feeling like that
I got a reason so man, put that record on again
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that
No fear, but I think I'm falling
I'm not proud
But I'm usually the type of girl that would hit and run
No risk, so I think I'm all in
When I kiss your lips, through my heartbeat thump
And now we're way up, dancing on the roof of the house
And then we make love, right there on your best friend's couch
And then you say, love, this is what is all about
So keep on kissing my mouth and put that record on again
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like I'm
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
I don't want to sing mad songs anymore
I only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm
I don't want to hear sad songs anymore
I only want to hear love songs
I found my heart up in this place tonight
Don't want to sing mad songs anymore
Only want to sing your song
'Cause your song's got me feeling like I'm (Got me feeling like I'm)
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love (I'm in love)
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love (I'm)
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love (I'm in love)
Yeah, you know your song's got me feeling like that
