Rita Ora is planning a new album as well as a tour for 2026

The Anywhere hitmaker has explained that she wants to release and tour her fourth studio record next year after concentrating on other elements of her career – such as her acting work – in recent times.

Speaking to a Melbourne radio station, Rita said: “There’s definitely an album coming.”

She further mentioned, “I’m really focused on this record and I’m coming out to tour – I haven’t toured an album since 2018.”

“My career has been so interesting. I’ve done film, TV, so kind of outwards. In the new year, I’m going inwards – to clean up shop and lead with intention,” the For You singer mentioned.

Rita revealed that she plans to tour in both Australia and New Zealand as the region has become her “second home” since she married Kiwi filmmaker Taika Waititi in 2022.

“I’m 100 per cent going to tour Australia, then to New Zealand and then back again – it’s like my second home,” the 34-year-old singer confirmed.

Additionally, Rita also announced that she be releasing a fly-on-the-wall documentary that would have eight years’ worth of footage.

The Joy talent told The Sun on Sunday newspaper’s Bizarre column: “I’ve been filming myself for the past eight years and one day I’m going to have to use that footage.”

“I’ve had dressing rooms flooding, my outfit not arriving in time. Sometimes I’ve not had a make-up artist and I’ve had to hide under my sunglasses,” Rita Ora told the outlet at that time.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have released their first statement after Prince Andrew announced to relinquish his royal title –the Duke of York.

The California-based royal couple released the statement via their Archewell Foundation.

The charity shared the statement on its website, saying “For the second year, The Archewell Foundation is proud to support the George Zajfen Tennis Tournament in Los Angeles: a moving event that brings the community together in support of the Alliance for Children’s Rights.”

Prince Harry and Meghan attended the tournament, celebrating the Alliance’s remarkable impact and ongoing commitment to strengthening families across Los Angeles.

The annual George Zajfen Tennis Tournament raises essential funds to advance the Alliance’s mission of securing safe homes, quality education, and holistic support for children and families in need.

They said, “At The Archewell Foundation, we remain committed to uplifting communities, and are proud to support the Alliance for Children’s rights dedication to ensure children receive the support and care they need.”

Prince Andrew on Friday renounced his title of Duke of York under pressure from his brother King Charles, amid further revelations about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

“I will… no longer use my title or the honours which have been conferred upon me,” Andrew, 65, said in a bombshell announcement.

He said his decision came after discussions with the head of state, King Charles III.

A crocodile took a dip in a luxury hotel pool in northeastern Australia this weekend but failed to stir guests who relaxed in the sun a few steps away.

Video posted on social media showed the juvenile carnivore lying on the bottom of the pool at the Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort in Port Douglas.

“I don’t want to alarm anyone, but there is a crocodile in the Sheraton pool,” Instagram user Lisa Keller said in a video showing the scaly predator.

A handful of tourists could be seen taking it easy on sun lounges around the edge of the pool, though none ventured into the water.

“Not a single person cares,” said Keller.

The video matched images of the pool on the hotel’s website.

Hotel manager Joseph Amerio said the crocodile was spotted early Saturday morning and the pool was cordoned off until Queensland state wildlife officers removed it in the afternoon.

“At no time were guests and the baby animal in the pool at the same time,” he said.

More than 100,000 saltwater and less aggressive freshwater crocodiles are estimated to be living across northern Australia.
