Singer-actress Rita Ora has refuted reports suggesting that she was dating rapper Jay Z, who is married to R&B star Beyonce Knowles.

Ora, 25, took to Twitter to clarify the rumours, which surfaced after a picture of her wearing an outfit similar to the one worn by Beyonce, 34, in her music video of her latest album “Lemonade” and what looked like a “J” necklace appeared online, reported Aceshowbiz.

“I never usually address tabloid gossip but let me be clear, these rumours are false,” the former protege of Jay-Z wrote.

“I have nothing but the upmost respect for Beyonce. Let’s continue enjoying Lemonade,” she said.
