Ella Eyre had a crush on her own cousin
The 20-year-old singer admits it can be "weird" having a huge family as she doesn't know all her relatives, which led to an embarrassing incident of her finding a hunky relative attractive
21 July 2014
She said: "I've got a huge Jamaican family, some I don't know. I was walking on the beach one day with my dad thinking [about a stranger], 'He's good looking'. And my dad said, 'Yeah, that's your cousin'. Weird."
While Ella is flattered by comparisons to Rita Ora, she admits she doesn't understand them.
She said: "She's beautiful, so if people tell me I look like her I'm like, 'Thanks'. But I don't think I do.
"Rita Ora's been compared to Rihanna and they do not look the same."
The 'If I Go' singer used to be a fan of Rihanna but is put off now by her "sexualised" image.
She added in an interview with LOOK magazine: "I've gone through phases with Rihanna. I loved 'S&M', that's my favourite. Then I think the whole sexualised image put me off a bit. I'm not like that."
