    Rita Ora turned her attention to the great outdoors as she joined the ultimate adventurer Bear Grylls to defy gravity. 

    The singer, 32, strapped herself in tight and faced a 15,000-foot drop while filming an episode for the 49-year-old wildlife presenter’s new TV show.

    Learning to overcome her fears alongside the British adventurer, Rita took part in Bear Grylls: The Challenge, which is due to air via National Geographic on Disney+.

    She joined a long list of famous names who tested their limits with Bear’s help – including Sherlock actor Benedict Cumberbatch, Natalie Portman, Marvel’s Simu Liu and Oppenheimer actress Florence Pugh.

    The Let You Love Me singer appeared in a new promotional clip for her upcoming episode and proved she was ready to fly as she dangled her legs over the clouds, out of an airplane. 

    Screaming in pure fright, the Masked Singer judge was shown with a terrified expression on her face as she readied herself to jump out of the air-borne plane at 15,000 feet.

    The surprising duo were filming over the Valley of Fire in Nevada and ultimately landed safely on the ground below. 

    Once they plant their feet back onto the dusty solid terrain, the episode appeared to follow Rita and Bear as he taught the star how to navigate her way towards food and water. 

    Keeping it very real, the Poison hitmaker was seen preparing a pigeon to eat for their evening meal over a campfire.

    Her feature in the new adventure series came after her husband and filmmaker Taika Waititi shared intimate details about their nuptials. 

    He revealed Rita proposed to him as the couple opened up about their private wedding to mark their one-year anniversary.

    The Oscar-winning New Zealand director first met the British singer at a barbecue he hosted in 2018 and they later began dating in 2021 while filming in Australia.

    Rita popped the question to the creative during their holiday in Palm Springs in the summer of 2022 and they got married a few weeks later on August 4.
