Rita Ora made a whopping 11 costume changes, and history as the first person to host the ceremony for a third time, at the star-studded MTV EMAs at Manchester Co-Op Live Arena on Sunday.

The singer, 33, showcased her jaw-dropping figure in the eye-catching outfits which ranged from dramatic gowns to skin-тιԍнт bodysuits. 

Rita first hit the red carpet, where she packed on the PDA with husband Taikia Waiтιтi, 48, in the light pink gown which was adorned with hundreds of feathers and featured a corset style top. 

She boosted her height with huge strappy silk heels and wore her brunette tresses in a wavy style while opting for a glamorous makeup look. 

The stunner then sent pulses racing as she went braless and slipped into a totally sheer cape look to open the show, with only metallic embellishments added to retain her modesty
