Rita Ora pays tribute to a legend in a special performance tonight.

As part of Children In Need Rocks 2018, several pop favourites will be performing one-off covers and classic hits.

This will include Rita Ora performing a new version of George Michael's 'Freedom 90'. Watch a clip from the performance above.

When asked why she decided to cover the song, Rita said: "George Michael and the song 'Freedom' changed my life, it made me feel like I was able to do anything, take over the world. He is an icon, I hope my cover honours him and reminds people of his incredible talent."

All Saints, George Ezra, Jess Glynne, Nile Rodgers and Chic, Olly Murs, Tom Odell and Sir Rod Stewart will also take to the stage to help raise money for the charity.

George Michael has previously received tributes by the likes of Adele and Coldplay's Chris Martin in the past.
