However, it isn’t all chart-topping hits and jaw-dropping fashion looks for Rita though as the 32-year-old singer has reportedly been involved in the odd row over the years.

As Rita puts on her detective cap for the latest episode of everyone’s favourite guessing show this weekend, the Daily Star takes a look inside her rumoured feuds.

Beyoncé

Beyoncé broke the internet back in 2016 when she dropped her sixth studio album, Lemonade.

On the record, Bey famously implied that her beau Jay-Z had been unfaithful with a mystery woman called “Becky with the good hair”.

Straight away, rumours started to speculate on who “Becky” was that led Jay-Z astray, with many pointing the finger at Rita.

Rita then fuelled more speculation after she posted a sizzling snap wearing a lemon bikini and J pendant necklace.

She later slammed the rumours though, telling Louis Theroux last year that “It literally was a coincidence”.

She added: “I didn’t even think about it, I swear. And it wasn’t a J, it was an R. They flipped it round and then it looked like a J.”

The Kardashians

Back in 2012, Rita dated reality star and brother of the Kardashian sisters, Rob Kardashian.

Things didn’t end too well between them and as a result and it is thought to have launched a feud with the entire Kardashian clan.

In a series of now-deleted tweets, Rob claimed Rita had cheated on him with “nearly 20 dudes” throughout their relationship, MailOnline reports.

What’s more, according to TMZ, Kim refused to sit near Rita at the MTV Video Music Awards and insisted producers swap her seat to one further away.

Calvin Harris

Rita and Scottish DJ Calvin Harris were the OG’s of a showbiz feud back in 2014 when they called it quits on their relationship.

Things turned sour for the former couple when Calvin refused to let Rita use any of the material he worked on with her for her now-shelved studio album.

He then banned the songstress from performing their number one hit I Will Never Let You Down.

However, it appears the two have finally ended their feud, after a source told The Sun in 2017 that they “got in touch and sorted things out”.

Rihanna

Rumours of tension between the Anywhere hitmaker and Fenty Founder Rihanna have been swirling for years.

Apparently, Rita was fed up with former label Roc Nation prioritising label-mate Rihanna over her, with insiders claiming RiRi got first dibs on new songs.

Things got even more awkward between the two when Rita reportedly went to war with Roc Nation in 2015 – Rihanna was also signed to the same label.

However, the singer recently set the record straight about their apparent feud, confirming she has no problem with Rihanna.

“I can’t speak for other people but I think publicly they always put women against each other.

“I’ve been nothing but a fan and respectful of her and I always will be,” she told Louis Theroux.

Dua Lipa

Rumours of Rita’s fall-out with Dua Lipa dates back to 2019 when it was reported they avoided one another at that year’s Met Gala.

Then in May 2021, fellow Albanian music star Bebe Rexha chimed in on their apparent feud.

She told The Sun in an interview: “I don’t know what’s really going on there or what the drama is. I’ve tried to always be the peace-keeper and bring the girls together.”

After the interview was published though, Bebe slammed its claims, saying her words were taken completely out of context.
