Rita Ora didn't wear any underwear to the MTV Video Music Awards

Now Rita has revealed she had to be extra care not to suffer a wardrobe malfunction because she had gone commando.

The 'I Will Never Let You Down' hitmaker was asked during an interview on UK radio station Capital FM if she was wearing any knickers at the VMAs and cheekily replied: "Oh no, I didn't actually! I just literally knew my angles and I made sure that I did not move!"

Rita also revealed the Donna Karan dress had to be sewn on to her body because of the look she and her team wanted to achieve.

She said: "It took a lot of altering because it was made out of pure silk so it had to literally be sewed on to my body.

"I just wanted something really simple that looked like a slip, that almost reminded you of lingerie but still a dress, and it was a customised Donna Karan piece. My team and myself wanted a red dress because red is my favourite colour ... so we put a red dress on and we cut it really accordingly and it just kept getting shorter and shorter and the thigh just kept getting higher and higher! Until I thought, 'OK, we have to stop now!' "

Rita's dress was one of the most talked about fashion statements at the ceremony - which took place at The Forum in Inglewood, California - along with Katy Perry's denim homage to Britney Spears, Charli XCX's tiger catsuit and Miley Cyrus' black leather boob tube.

Rita performed at the VMAs, taking to the stage with Iggy Azalea for a version of their new single 'Black Widow'.
