 She, of a leotard collection to rival even Lady Gaga's - JESSIE J - shall be flying in for a two-day visit to New Zealand, come the 6th and 7th of May. "But who is this 22 year old Essex songwriter they call Jessie J? She was a child theatre star, making her stage debut in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s West End Production of ‘Whistle Down the Wind’. She has had an irregular heartbeat since the age of 11 and after suffering a stroke at age 18 Jessie J turned to songwriting and teamed up with super producer Dr Luke, co-wrote ‘Party in the USA’ for Miley Cyrus, as well as writing for Justin Timberlake, Alicia Keys, Chris Brown and Christina Aguilera." I hope she busts out a leotard, or two, during her promotional visit here... I have high expectations. Also, because I know that you're wondering: in the lyrics of 'Price Tag', Coconut Man refers to Dr. Luke, Moonhead is Claude Kelly, and Pea is Jessie J herself. Collectively, all three co-wrote the song together. Watch Jessie J perform (my favourite song from her 'Who You Are' album) 'Nobody's Perfect' live below... P.S. Bonus! Jessie J performing (is it a cover if she originally co-wrote it??) 'Party In The USA' live... |
