Rita looked flawless as she donned a corseted top that left little to the imagination, paired with a connected flowy skirt.
The international popstar flaunted her incredibly toned abs in the ensemble, and added to the look with a chunky necklace and bracelets.
Speaking about her new album, Rita likened it to a ‘diary’, suggesting it would be her most personal offering to fans yet as she named it after her husband.
She said: ‘This album really means a lot to me. It’s like my diary of the last few years. It’s my sound and it just feels so true to me and who I am today.’
