The 24-year-old "X Factor" judge said she was hurt and put everything on hold, reported Digital Spy.
"This whole impression that my album hasn't been an easy process is really bollocks. It is not that it hasn't been, it's that I've put personal issues first because I'm a girl.

And now I'm back," Ora said.
"The reason why I say yes to identifying myself as a feminist is because the word 'feminist', people get scared of. That's not exactly the scariest part of being a feminist. The word sounds scary but all it is is being supportive of someone of the same sex," she said.
