Rita Ora Fights Back Tears On Stage During Avicii Tribute

Singer, Rita Ora fought back tears while performing her song with late Avicii, Lonely Together.

Rita was performing in front of thousands at 538Koningsdag Festival Friday night in the Netherlands when she stopped the show to pay tribute to the DJ, who passed away last week in Muscat, Oman.

Ora warned the crowd that her next song would be difficult for her to sing. She also said that the DJ had “changed her life” before putting her mic and hands behind her back and holding a moment of silence.

It’s pretty incredible … there were some 40,000 people there and they all got very quiet, so there were definitely some Avicii fans in the house.

“Lonely Together” was the last track Avicii released before his tragic passing. He was only 28.
