Rita Ora's Emotional Plea: Condemning Anti-Trans Laws
Rita Ora Condemns Anti-Trans Legislation: 'It Makes Me So Angry' London, UK – June 10, 2025 – Pop star Rita Ora has spoken out against recent anti-trans legislation in the UK and US, expressing deep concern and anger at the targeting of transgender individuals, particularly youth. In a recent interview with PinkNews, Ora shared her personal connection to the LGBTQ+ community, stating, “It’s everything to me. I always make time for Pride.” Ora's comments follow a UK Supreme Court ruling that interpreted the term "s3x" in the Equality Act 2010 to refer only to biological s3x, excluding trans women. She also addressed the Trump administration's policies in the US, stating, “It’s heartbreaking. It makes me so angry. I get so f**king angry.” The singer highlighted the sacrifices trans individuals make to simply be themselves, referencing the advocacy of stars like Hunter Schafer. Ora concluded by emphasizing her commitment to creating an inclusive space at her concerts, promising fans, “I promise when you come to a Rita show you’ll feel accepted and safe and free to be who you want to be with no judgement.” Her powerful message underscores the urgent need for continued support and advocacy for the transgender community.
