During her four-decade career she has regularly been referred to as the “Queen of pop” however Madonna may have actually lived up to that title when she apparently asked Rita Ora to kneel on the floor when they first met
At the Glamour beauty festival, which was held over the weekend, Ora described the moment she met her “idol” Madonna at a charity event.
“I was waiting for her [Madonna] and I was shivering. And my sister said to me, ‘Are you ok? You look really crazy.’ And I was like, “I think I am going to be sick’. And Madonna walks in with lighting all around her.
“I said, ‘Hi, it is so nice to meet you’ and she was like, ‘This is the lighting here [points to lights]. Can you just kneel down here on the floor?’” reports the magazine.
The 25-year-old said she happily complied with the 57-year-old’s request and they ended up having a conversation while Ora was on the floor.
“Can you believe that?” Ora asked the audience, “But that is Madonna and she can do whatever she wants. That was major. Everything is a learning curve.”
The encounter clearly did not go on to hamper relations between the pair as Madonna chose the "I Will Never Let You Down" singer to be the face of her Material Girl clothing collection in 2014. Ora also made an appearance at the Berlin leg of Madonna’s Rebel Heart tour last year, which finally comes to an end in Australia this month.
