More quotes by Jessie J
Being perfect is boring. It's the imperfections that make us perfect.
Jessie J
I'm so hard on myself that when I'm in the studio, I'll write 10 songs and only use one. So those nine songs that are left over, I always think, 'Where could these go? Who could they be for?'
Jessie J
When I was nine, I was diagnosed with an irregular heartbeat and was prescribed beta blockers, which had the side effect of turning my skin green. Looking like Shrek's little sister at school wasn't the easiest thing.
Jessie J
I used to live in a gap jumper, tracksuit bottoms and a fake flower in my hair. Shocking.
Jessie J
Never expect, never presume, always work hard and always be true to who you are.
Jessie J
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
It's weird because when you initially write a song, you write it with no understanding that the world is maybe going to hear it one day. So when you go into the studio, you don't see the hundreds of people at a gig or the viewers on TV, you just write a song without any inhibitions or boundaries.
Jessie J
The journey is more important than where you end up.
Jessie J
They're not bullying you because of you,they're bullying you because of how they are
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
You should never, ever apologize for anything that makes you happy.
Jessie J
I guess karma comes back around 'cause now I'm the one that's hurting
Jessie J
I love getting dressed up, but I want to be remembered for my singing.
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
And that's the kind of thing people think, you know, that if you sign up to be a singer-songwriter you know how to deal with people setting up hate websites, or people being obsessed with you and crying when you touch them, but you don't, and you just have to deal with.
Jessie J
I wasn't always someone who was talented. It was more that I was loud and loved a challenge.
Jessie J
I've been in dance schools since I was four. I went to the Brit school. I did adverts and plays.
Jessie J
It's okay not to be okay... Sometimes it's hard, to follow your heart but tears don't mean you're losing, everybody's bruising, there's nothing wrong with who you are.
Jessie J
There are a lot of people holding on to the old Jessie J - whatever that means - but I think there's a lot more people realizing what I'm about. I think people like it.
Jessie J
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.
