Rita Ora reveals Beyonce has always been her ‘protector’ as she discusses THAT ‘Becky with the good hair’ cheating rumour

Rita Ora has shared that Beyoncé has consistently acted as her guardian, as she recently talked about facing rumors that she was known as “Becky with the good hair.

Beyoncé’s critically acclaimed album, “Lemonade” from 2016, contained profound lyrics that touched upon infidelity, and in her song “Sorry,” she alluded to a secret figure referred to as ‘Becky with the great hair.’

A common theory among fans suggests that the song “Lemonade” by Beyoncé hinted at rumors of Jay-Z’s purported infidelity with a woman known as ‘Becky’. Various speculations emerged online, attempting to uncover Becky’s true identity.

Hey there! I’m just a humble fan, but let me tell you, it’s me, 34-year-old me, who found myself smack-dab in the middle of all those whispers. Sadly, folks thought I was secretly romancing Jay-Z, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Poor guy had to step up and squash those rumors himself, setting the record straight.

Currently, it’s important to mention that when the allegations arose, Rita (who was signed under Jay-Z’s Roc Nation label) felt distressed because Beyoncé had always acted as her guardian or protector.

On Davina McCall’s Begin Again podcast, Rita shared that Beyoncé acts like a guardian angel for her behind closed doors, providing protection in an extraordinary way. Despite the lack of any adversity, their relationship was filled with only love.

Moreover, since Beyoncé is both my inspiration and married to Jay-Z, who manages her career, she attended my debut performance in New York at The Box when I was 21. During that show, I boldly performed ‘Say My Name’ in front of her.

Rita openly acknowledged that she felt genuinely distressed and perplexed by the storm, as Beyonce has been like an older sibling, consistently watching out for her within the music business.

In her own words, the artist renowned for “For You” shared that she continues to frequently meet up with Beyoncé even today. She also reiterated her stance that she is not ‘Becky’, a term often associated with speculations in certain circles.

‘It wasn’t real,’ Rita insisted, before jokingly adding: ‘I wish I had good hair!’

She stated, “Nothing from there was genuine. That instance marked my first encounter with chaos, I suppose.

At the 2016 Met Gala, Rita, currently married to Taika Waititi (as of 2022), clearly debunked any lingering speculation by posing for a selfie with Beyoncé.

‘Then it was gone,’ she added. ‘Because there was never anything there in the first place.’

On Louis Theroux’s podcast in 2022, Rita didn’t hesitate to address the controversy surrounding ‘Becky with the good hair’ for the second time. She put an end to the rumors.

In April 2016, Rita found herself at the heart of rumors after sharing a Snapchat picture. The image showed her donning a lemon-hued brassiere and an initial necklace that appeared to be a ‘J’, sparking theories among fans about its meaning.

Despite what some fans believed as a reaction to the disputed song lyric, Rita clarified that it was purely by chance she said, “Oh my God.

She assured Louis, “I honestly didn’t give it a second thought,” followed by, “As for the shape, it wasn’t a J, but rather an R. When they turned it upside-down, it resembled a J.

Additionally, she discussed another renowned picture that featured her donning a semi-transparent bra from the Tenezis partnership, where lemons were strategically positioned.

She clarified about the lemon-themed project: “Actually, it wasn’t related to it at all. It was a separate collaboration I had with a lingerie brand named Tezenis.

Let me explain this way – just like adding a little bit of salt enhances the flavor without altering it fundamentally, one must view things similarly. And that’s absolutely crazy.

Rita said that her ‘good friend’ Katy Perry gave her a ‘hilarious badge that said ‘Not Becky”’.

In the critically praised album Lemonade by Beyoncé, which earned her two Grammy awards, she hinted at several instances suggesting that Jay-Z might have been unfaithful to her.

I apologize for any inconvenience, but here are the lyrics rephrased: You desire me only when I’m absent/It would be wise to reach out to someone else with attractive hair.

Multiple well-known figures found themselves embroiled in speculation about the true identity of ‘Becky,’ with fashion designer Rachel Roy and the former spouse of Jay-Z’s past partner Damon Dash being two of them. However, both parties have since refuted the allegations.

Diana Gordon, a collaborator of Beyoncé who used to go by the stage name Wynter Gordon, made it clear that ‘Becky’ is not specifically linked to any individual.

She questioned about the reaction, saying, “It’s like asking which era a song is from that provides you with all this knowledge, isn’t it? But is it truly revealing that much and blaming people?

Tina Knowles, Beyoncé’s mom, made it clear that she was not talking about a particular individual but rather addressing the topic of marriage as a whole.

‘It could be about anyone’s marriage,’ she shared at the time.

At some point in our lives, everyone has experienced betrayal and deception, which can cause deep pain. The focus is not only on the hurt but also on the process of healing and moving forward. It’s about figuring out how to get past the hurt and start anew.
