Storms out of show

Fight0 Comments

Goodrem has a verbal fight with fellow coach Jessie J and storms off the set of the The Voice, Australia, after a performance of Marilyn’s Monroe’s Diamonds Are A Girl’s Best Friend by O’Callaghan. Goodrem says O’Callaghan’s performance has a good vibe, despite it not turning any seats. Jessie disagrees and continues to critique her. Goodrem takes off her microphone and earpiece, swears and leaves the set.

I’m over this s**t. I’m out.

Later:

I can’t sit there and watch artists be embarrassed on stage. I think I had, had enough of the tough love. I want to be someone who wants to encourage people’s dreams.

Jessie J says she knows Goodrem was “genuinely angry” with her but she wasn’t going to change her tune.

Jessie J appears on the cover of the January 2015 issue of Glamour UK magazine. She talks about her song Bang Bang, moving to America and writing Party in the USA.

Party in the USA paid my rent for, like, three years. Actually it was longer than that. That’s where I get most of my money. I write songs. I’m a singer. I love doing endorsements and stuff, but that’s all added on.

Seacrest interviews Jessie J during On Air Wit Ryan Seacrest about her latest single Bang Bang ft. Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj.

It was his [producer Max Martin] idea. He called me and he was like, ‘I have this song called ‘Bang Bang,’ do you want to sing it? And I was like, ‘Um, yeah?’ I listened to it and went to the studio quicker than ever before. And then Ariana heard it and she’d recorded some of it also. So it was kind of a joint thing straightaway. And then Nicki heard it in the studio and she wanted to jump on it that day. So it was just natural.

Sweet Talker

url-1Jessie J releases her third studio album Sweet Talker. The record features her singles Burnin’ Up and Bang Bang with collaborations with Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj and 2 Chainz.

On this album, there’s everything from De La Soul, there’s an 80’s p-funk vibe, and then we’ve got Lindsey Sterling who’s an incredible violinist, there’s loads of different stuff. There’s acoustic stuff of just me and a piano, which is new for me, just me and a guitar. There’s big, kind of heavier production. There’s loads of different stuff. That’s one thing people have said. It’s eclectic. I like to make music for everybody so I hope that everyone can feel something for them.

Personal

0 Comments

Jessie J releases the third single, titled Personal, off of her album Sweet Talker.

It’s a constant cycle of inspiration so like, for example, when I heard Fire and when I heard Personal, these are songs that I have lived and so I added my input on the lyric and changed some of the things to really make it suitable for me, to feel comfortable to sing it. And it was an amazing experience to be able to let go like that.”

Bang Bang video

Jessie J. releases the video for Bang Bang ft. Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande from her album Sweet Talker. The video is directed by Hannah Lux Davis and features Minaj rapping and dancing on a rooftop helicopter landing pad.

Jesssie J:

I heard it and was like: “If I don’t record this, I’m an idiot.” I went in the studio that day and recorded it, sent it to Max Martin with some of my changes and obviously I put my vocal down on it. He phoned me and was like, ‘I want to get Ariana on it’, and I was like, ‘I think this is an amazing idea’. And then Nicki heard it and wanted to jump on it, so in an instant it was obviously the first single.
