Rita Ora has turned heads in her most rebellious outfit yet, looking like a fun, fearless rockstar.

The singer stepped out in New York over the weekend in a bold leather outfit adorned with silver studs, grommets, chain detailing and tassels.

Never one to dress conservatively, the British singer left the pants at home, instead teaming her studded corset with a cheeky pair of hotpants that showed off her pert bottom.

The 34-year-old did try to cover up by wearing what looked like a black scarf as a sarong, which had the word “rockstar” emblazoned on the fabric.

She capped off her look with black knee-high cowboy boots decorated with edgy chains.

Ora’s New York outing comes months after she was dragged online for what was perceived as a “rich flex”.

The singer struck the wrong chord with her followers after joking about her decision to take a last-minute trip to Sydney after a night out, where on a whim she hopped on a plane and flew Down Under.

“P. O. V last night I drunkenly decided I wanted to come to Sydney in the morning,” she wrote on TikTok at the time.

While the video was meant to be good-humoured, it was not well received, with people quick to point out that it is privileged to be able to travel internationally at a second’s notice while most are in a cost of living crisis.

“I can’t relate because I’m poor,” one noted.

“Rich privilege,” someone else claimed.

“No need to flex like this to the poor,” one complained.

Not everyone was offended by her last-minute trip. Others praised her travel decision and said, “Yes, Queen,” and “I love you.”

Ora has spent a fair bit of time in Australia in recent years because she was a judge for two seasons of the singing competition The Voice.

She’s also married to New Zealand director Taika Waititi, who recently spent a lot of his time in Australia filming Marvel blockbusters. Ora credits Australia with helping her embrace a “healthy” lifestyle.

Ora has previously spoken to news.com.au and praised Aussies for knowing “how to party,” which she loves doing.

The pop singer went on to explain that she feels the most “free” when she’s in Australia and loves the laid-back lifestyle.

“I exercise, I know it’s boring … but Australia is where I discovered getting healthy. When I came to do The Voice, everyone was just on a really healthy thing. Now I’m obsessed with it,” she said.
