Rita Ora missed another day of X Factor auditions to promote and perform at the launch of her new underwear line.
An X Factor spokesman said: “This is one of the new audition dates which we’ve added after having to cancel dates in Manchester and the first London date.
"Rita could not make today work because of prior commitments which she couldn’t move, so we are doing today’s auditions with the other three judges.”

The auditions were re-arranged following the death of Simon's mum Julie.
Rita joins Simon on this year's judging panel alongside Nick Grimshaw and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.
The 24-year-old singer was given permission from the ITV show's bosses - including Simon - to continue with her venture.
After Rita's underwear launch, the singer and brand Tezenis both shared a picture on Instagram of the singer performing.
Speaking on her decision to work with the brand, Rita said: “I chose to work with the Calzedonia Group when I discovered that all the brands are designed by women, so truly for women. Wearing Tezenis makes me feel confident, comfortable and beautiful.”
Meanwhile at Wembley Arena, Nick, Chezza and Simon looked like they were having an absolute hoot without Rita. Soz, love.
Nick poked fun at Rita with the picture above he posted on his Instagram, alongside the caption: “We are having such a miserable day missing Rita Ora." L-O-L.
This wasn't the first time Rita missed a day of auditions. Tut tut, naughty school girl. She skipped a day of the Manchester auditions to take a trip to Paris for a fashion show. Ooh la la.
Anywho, the clever editing people at X Factor are just going to edit around her "truancy".
