Rita Ora stops traffic in Times Square as the new face of DKNY

Rita Ora stops traffic in Times Square as she follows in the footsteps of her 'wifey' Cara Delevingne as the new face of DKNY

They're so close they have nicknamed each other 'wifey'.
But it appears that isn't the only thing they share after Rita Ora scored a top modelling job with DKNY after Cara Delevingne also posed for the brand.
English singer Rita looked flawless as she stopped traffic in New York City's Times Square on Tuesday as she posed up a storm for the fashion house's Resort 2014 collection.

Wearing a black dress and mesh jacket, she strutted down the street before hailing one of New York's iconic yellow taxi cabs.
She then slipped on her black sunglasses and gave her best pout as she worked it for the cameras.
On Tuesday morning, Rita admitted she was squeezing in a last minute workout to make sure her figure looked perfect for the shoot.

Rita's new modelling job comes a month after she performed for the American brand at a London party.
During the bash, Rita was joined on-stage by Cara, who danced around the singer and tried to grab her microphone.

Recently, Rita and Cara denied reports they had fallen out over the model's behaviour at the DKNY gig.
Rita tweeted: '‘I don't know what all these stupid stories are about but Im always going to have my best friend @Caradelevingne I love you!’'
Cara replied: 'It's mad @RitaOra the press will say whatever they want but they will never really know. They should start writing science fiction novels! X.'
Meanwhile, Rita was also recently unveiled as the face of Madonna's daughter Lourdes Leon's Material Girl clothing range.
