Rita Ora gets "crazy anxiety" before a date. The RIP hitmaker has admitted she would prefer to be wooed over drinks than be treated to a sit-down lavish meal by a man because the thought of having to make small talk for an hour while they stuff their faces sends her nerves into overdrive.

Speaking in a pre-recorded interview on The Official Vodafone Big Top 40 with Marvin Humes, which aired on Sunday, she said that when asked why fans can never seem to find her on dating apps: "you've got to do a little bit more than swipe [on Tinder].

"Dates freak me out. I get crazy anxiety. I don't want any pressure. I'd rather have like a little drink. I just find it weird so a little drink is the easiest way."

Although she is not keen on dating, the 27-year-old singer recently admitted that she is constantly being hounded by men trying their luck on social media, and, although she usually ignores them, she sometimes entertains them if she is bored.

BeyoncE has been accused of using "extreme witchcraft" against her former drummer. Musician Kimberly Thompson is seeking a restraining order against the Formation singer after accusing the 37-year-old star of launching a campaign of harassment against her.

Court documents obtained by The Blast which were filed by the drummer - who has performed in an all-female band for the singer for seven years - alleged Beyonce murdered her kitten and used "extreme witchcraft, dark magic" and "magic spells of sexual molestation" against her.

Kimberly also believes the Crazy In Love hitmaker has been tapping her phone and controlling her finances.

She has been denied a temporary restraining order against the pop megastar on September 19, but there is a hearing on the matter scheduled for October 11.
