Jessie J quotes - page 2

I had knockback after knockback before I got anywhere. After I got my first record deal I thought that was it, then Gut Records went into liquidation. I was 20. I had no idea what that meant. I had a few days to get myself out of that contract or my work would be owned by someone else. (Jessie J)
When I was 10 or 11 people started saying there was something special about my voice. But when I was 15 or 16 is when I really thought my hobby could become my career.

Sexuality shouldn't define anyone. It doesn't define me. Love should be at the core of what you do.

I have always been the first on the dance floor. Before fame, people thought it made me a good laugh; now, people point and call me an attention seeker! I'm very aware of the way people can view me, but I'm very aware that I have to just enjoy my life.
Jessie J
I think being nice and being safe is unfair to yourself when you have big dreams as a woman. I think you have to prepare yourself that not everyone in this world has the same personality... The one thing I've chosen to be great at in my life is singing - so why not be proud that I'm great at it?
Jessie J
When I turned 25, something changed in me. I see children in my future 100%. Soon. I started thinking I want my kids to look back and say, 'Wasn't Mummy amazing?' I've really started thinking about what I'm leaving for them.

I'm someone who'd never base how happy I am on how much money I have, or how good a restaurant is because of how posh it is.

I always wanted to be an artist; being a songwriter for myself was always a must but being a songwriter for others has been a bonus.

I've been in dance schools since I was four. I went to the Brit school. I did adverts and plays.
Jessie J
During my stage shows, I am so energetic. It's constant! I just don't stand still. I actually got given a mic stand from my team to say 'Just calm down. Stand still for at least two songs.' But now I just pick it up and walk around with it.
Jessie J
I used to live in a gap jumper, tracksuit bottoms and a fake flower in my hair. Shocking. (Jessie J)
I am a very honest person, and I can only say there are moments in my life where I really did think I was being me in the sense of my morals and beliefs and the way I acted. But when I look back at certain things that I wore and my hair and make-up, I was like, 'Whoa! That wasn't me!' But I didn't know it back then.
Jessie J
Sometimes you have to be a diva. All the artists I admire from Madonna to Whitney to Mariah have all been called divas. If you are strong, if you have vision, if you are an artist, you have to do what you believe in. And if you get called a diva for it, then so what.
Jessie J
I love cleaning, weird but true. It really relaxes me.
Jessie J
I am a dork in disguise; I love doing stupid stuff.

Look after yourself; remember that you only consist of your being, so make the best of what you have and look after it. Put good things into your body; eat well.

When I look back, I can see why people thought I was aggressive. My first single, 'Do It Like A Dude,' resulted in a lot of misconceptions about me. I'm confident - but I'm not arrogant.

I also surround myself with people who make me laugh. If I'm not laughing, it upsets my day.
Jessie J
My style is constantly evolving. Style has been something that I think has been the hardest thing for me to come to terms with. (Jessie J)
I can play the air guitar really, really well.
Jessie J
My attitude goes back to my childhood. I used to audition for theatrical roles, and you can't stand out in a room full of ambitious eight-year-old girls by acting the wallflower. I realised then that I couldn't do things half-heartedly.
Jessie J
Whoopie doo guys, yes, I've dated girls and I've dated boys - get over it.

I was obsessed with the Spice Girls! I always wanted to be Sporty. Or Posh, but I wasn't pretty enough.
