Wow. Because we've never seen her judging a live singing contest on primetime Saturday night TV before!!! For those unaware, Rita was one of the many revolving females involved in The Voice UK, after Kylie, and Jessie J.

Last night it was confirmed that Nick Grimshaw was going to be lighting up our boxes with his fabulous gnashers every weekend until Christmas. We were underwhelmed. Now, in light of the surpring (?) Rita Ora news, public reaction has been mixed - with one person lamenting the loss of Louis Walsh...
@TheXFactor @SelenuurrBieber @grimmers @RitaOra @CherylOfficial @SimonCowell no Louis :(

Speaking of Simon Cowell, this bunch of whipper snappers are bound to make him start feeling his age... Maybe that may motivate him to let this format have a little rest after this year. Please.
