Rita Ora: 'I was a cheeky student'

Rita Ora has revealed that she was a trouble-maker during her school days.

The 'RIP' singer went to the Sylvia Young Theatre School in London, where she studied music. However, according to Ora, following the rules at the prestigious establishment was a constant difficulty.



She told more! magazine: "I was cheeky. I hated wearing a hairnet. Sylvia would come into ballet class and catch me without one. 'Rita, there are some rules. This is a serious matter', she'd say."

Despite her problem with rules, the 21-year-old still looks back at her time on the school fondly.

''[Sylvia] had a soft spot for me, though," she added. "I was never rude, I just wasn't great at listening.

''When I left Sylvia's at 16, I thought I'd be famous a week later. I got slayed... I got really confused and thought I'd messed up. When you don't know yourself, you think everyone else is right. So you cry.''

Ora recently did a stint as a judge on The X Factor, and has said that she would be thrilled to return to the show.
