Will, who starred in TV sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, sang new single Pretty Girls — which is out today — to Rita ahead of his appearance at Capital radio's Summertime Ball on Sunday.
Rita — also performing at the Wembley Stadium bash — sang her hit Hot Right Now as director husband Taika Waititi looked on.
Earlier this month Rita launched new single Heat which features some very raunchy lyrics.
Rita sings: 'Sex on sight, anywhere you like. Inside or outside.'
Another X-rated line goes : 'Only one thing I need. Your heat on me.'
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Rita explained the song's not just about getting down and dirty.
'It's the need of it happening right now, in this moment,' Rita said.
'It's the idea that I want it on right now or I don't want to hear about it.
'It's that simple. I think that comes from the excitement of the song.
'I wanted it to feel instant and to have an impact.
Rita Ora looks incredible as she strips off to thong bikini to enjoy an ice lolly by the pool
'It is a brave, straight-up demand that you can use in any way you want.'

Fans stunned as they spot Simon Cowell cycling around South London with no security as they quiz lost star on his safety
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SOUTH London locals were left shocked as they spotted Simon Cowell cycling by himself on a busy high street. The media mogul and BGT judge even had the gobsmacked fans panicking for his safety as he went without a helmet for the bike ride and admitted to being "lost" to passers-by.

She then questioned if he was "scared" travelling solo on the busy roads of South London. Looking bemused Simon then revealed how he'd actually got lost on his travels but appeared to be going in the right direction now. He said to the fans: "Well, I got lost but it [the bike] is quicker!" Wishing him well, the perplexed woman added: "Please just go with God, okay?! "We love you Simon, yeah man, bye darling." Watch the moment 'cocky' BGT singer claps back at Simon Cowell after dodgy Freddie Mercury tribute - leaving fans fuming- Simon then flashed the duo a smile and put his thumb up before biking off in front of their car. The clip went viral on TikTok racking up just shy of half a million likes. Fans were instantly left questioning his safety as they praised the woman in the clip for making sure to check if he was okay. One wrote in the comments section of the clip: "I love how nice the lady was in this video. It was just all about him and his safety." 6 He then sped off from the car as he could be seen without any helmet Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk 6 He also opted to wear a puffer jacket despite the 30 degree heat wave in London Credit: Not known, clear with picture desk As another asked: "Whys he just out? no security?"

Simon hasn't had the best luck when it comes to using bikes and has previously suffered a serious injury after taking a tumble from one just a few years ago. The Sun told how in 2020 he was almost left paralysed and was left needing surgery after hurting his back in a shocking accident. He crashed off his electric bike and broke his back in three places before undergoing six hours of surgery. He missed injuring his spinal cord by a centimetre. A source said at the time: 'He could have been looking at a life in a wheelchair.' Simon Cowell fell and broke his back after trying out a powerful new electric bike — and accidentally pulling a wheelie. His son Eric, then aged six, and his partner Lauren Silverman's teenage lad Adam watched in horror as Simon fell backwards and smashed down onto a concrete floor at his Los Angeles home.

English lido with heated swimming pool and Full Moon swims reopens after £120k upgrade
Plus, the UK's best outdoor water parks and lidos to enjoy this summer DIVE IN English lido with heated swimming pool and Full Moon swims reopens after £120k upgrade Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DORSET'S only open-air pool is open after renovations with some unique swimming session in the heated lido. Shaftesbury Lido has reopened after three months of upgrades worth £120,000, they celebrated with a nighttime swim and have more to come. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Shaftesbury Lido welcomes swimmers for evening Full Moon events Credit: Shaftesbury Town Council 5 The Dorset lido is one of the oldest pools in the country Credit: Getty After closing on March 13, the heated lido reopened on June 7. One of the more unusual sessions is their Full Moon swims celebrating the Strawberry Moon, with swimmers enjoying a late evening dip. While there are no more evening events in the calendar, the town council website tells swimmers to "keep an eye out for our popular Full Moon Swims" - so there are more to come. The renovations of the lido were to improve the pool for users and bring it up to modern standards. The origins of the Lido go back 170 years to the mid-19th century, so it's no surprise it needed a little maintenance. In fact, Shaftesbury Lido is one of the oldest pools still operational in the country. The money for the upgrades was raised by the community, council, local businesses, along with a grant from Sport England. Part of the fundraising came from the Shaftesbury Lido Ice Championship Extravaganza (called SLICE). Lido manager Harriet Green told the Bournemouth Echo: "It's just been amazing, it's so lovely to have the community get behind us and for the council to believe in the pool." Shaftesbury Lido is now fully open for the summer season and along with the classic lane swim, the it also offers other sessions like aqua wellness, parent and toddler, adult lessons, and even naked swimming. New £4million lido to open in UK next year 5 The lido recently opened after three months of closure Credit: Shaftesbury Town Council 5 The lido is in the beautiful town of Shaftesbury Credit: Alamy It's suggested to book as the pool has capacity for just 20 swimmers. During the summer, the temperature of the pool remains at 29C. It then gets turned off during autumn and eventually cools down for winter. In 2023, the lido held its very first trial of cold water swim sessions where the water temperature falls below 15 degrees. During this time, the website suggests that cold water swimming beginners wear a wetsuit to avoid cold water shock. Plus, the beachfront lido that's free to use is to close ahead of major renovation. And the UK's best outdoor water parks and lidos to enjoy this summer.
