The world-famous Albanian singer, Rita Ora, is enjoying the success of her newest album, “You & I”, which she released on July 14.
She has been busy for weeks promoting her third album in various interviews, podcasts and TV appearances.
Among them, Rita took part in the famous podcast “The Diary Of A CEO”, in an episode entitled “I Lived With Constant Anxiety”.
The conversation started with her family moving to London from Kosovo, when Rita was only one year old, and her sister, Elena, was two years old.
“I am from Prishtina in Kosovo, from a country called Kosovo. It’s small, great. I came to the UK when I was one year old in 1991. I was born in 1990 and we were refugees from the war in Kosovo and I’ve been living in London ever since,” Rita told Steven Bartlett.
Afterwards, the performer of the hit “Lonely Together” showed how difficult the family’s beginnings were as refugees in England, when they were given a room by the state.
“It was a room given to us by the Government, and it wasn’t a council house – it was more like a temporary house, that’s what I remember. Then we moved to a council flat in West London, and then I’ve lived there for as long as I can remember,” said Rita.
She said that her parents, Vera and Besniku, have been so dedicated to raising and educating their children that they have taught them many things, without forgetting their mother tongue.a in the United Kingdom when I was one year old in 1991. I was born in 1990 and we were refugees from the war in Kosovo and I have lived in London since then,” said Rita in front of Steven Bartlett.
“There are many things that my parents taught me without knowing it, for example the Albanian language, which has always been spoken in my home, so fortunately I can speak two languages. I’m not great in Albanian, but I can understand, read and write”, said Ora.
In the same podcast, the Albanian singer talked about problems with anxiety and career difficulties, such as the famous trial with her former record label, ‘Roc Nation’, headed by the famous rapper Jay-Z.
