Introducing Jessie J

You may have heard of Jessie J before. Her latest single ‘Do It Like a Dude’ has been in the Top 30 and she’s recently been tipped as the next big thing winning BBC Sound of 2011 and the Critics Choice Award at this year’s Brit Awards.

Not only that but Jessie J is being tipped to be the British answer to the likes of Pink and Rihanna.


We love Jessie’s edgy street style, bold make-up and amazing sleek hairstyle. What do you think of Jessie, will she be a big hit this year?
