Jessica Cornish, aka Jessie J, was born March 27, 1988 in London, England. She wrote her first song, "Big White Room," at age 17. It was about being hospitalized at age 11 and sharing a room with a younger boy who eventually died. She signed a contract with the label Gut Records and toured with a number of high profiled pop, soul, and hip hop artists. However, Gut Records closed their doors before releasing any of Jessie J's music.
She went through High School and began channeling down her talent again when completing her study at the BRIT school and joining an-all girl group. Although she's in the entertainment business, she is far from the wild life full of drugs and alcohol. That is due to the health condition that she has. Irregular heartbeat and a minor stroke at the age of 18 forced her to hinder these things.
she came top of the BBC Sound Of 2011 list. In February, she received the Critics' Choice Award at the BRITs. Her first single, Do It Like A Dude went in at No.2 in the UK Singles Chart, while her second single, Price Tag, flew straight in at No.1. Meanwhile, her debut album Who You Are charted at No.2 and received rave reviews. In 2012, she was announced as a judge on the first series of The Voice. Jessie J is tee-total because of a heart condition she suffers from. She has also admitted to being a bisexual.
