Speaking to host Jimmy Fallon, Ora discussed her 2022 nuptials to director Taika Waititi, who she began dating in 2021. Fallon shared a photo of Ora with an Elvis impersonator at their wedding.
“I didn’t ask for this,” Ora clarified. “There was no plan. I got married off the cuff and it was so much fun, and then we were like, ‘Oh, now what?'”
“The Rise of Red,” streaming Friday, is the fourth installment in the live-action “Descendants” franchise, which follows the children of Disney villains.
“I had so much fun,” Ora said of her latest role. “It is all about being evil and I live for it. It’s original music and you get to really fall in love with the characters if you’re not a ‘Descendants’ follower you can still watch this because you’re introduced to a whole new set of characters.”
