Rita Ora

Singer-actress-model Rita Ora was born in Kosovo in 1990 and moved with her family to the U.K. within the year. She began singing at a young age and started her career at 16 by appearing on Craig David’s track ‘Awkward.’ She was discovered singing in bars and clubs around London and was signed to Jay Z’s Roc Nation label. Her 2012 debut album, ‘Ora,’ topped the British charts, as did three of its singles. One of those, ‘How We Do (Party),’ introduced her to audiences stateside. Her brash-glam style endeared her to the fashion world, and she has starred in campaigns from DKNY and Madonna’s Material Girl line. Acting credits include a cameo in ‘Fast & Furious 6’ and a role in the ‘50 Shades of Grey’ movie.

The icing on this 'don't-call-it-a-comeback' cake is that the show will feature one of the original pop stars from the ultimate boy band era: Nick Carter (arguably the cutest of the Backstreet Boys). And joining Carter is Emma Bunton, a.k.a Baby Spice (but why tho?) via revolutionary '90s/'00s girl band quintet Spice Girls.
