If you don't believe in yourself nobody else will believe in you.
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.
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?
I never complain that I'm tired, because I know as soon as I get a good nine hours' sleep, I'm cool.
Sexuality shouldn't define you. It should be part of who you are.
I love looking completely different and that my fans won't always know what I'm going to do.
I wasn't always someone who was talented. It was more that I was loud and loved a challenge.
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.
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.
We're flying free like birds in the sky, because we're ALIVE.
I guess karma comes back around 'cause now I'm the one that's hurting
I have become a bit obsessed with eyebrows. I used to never have any, and then I realised big eyebrows are good, and now I'm an eyebrow fiend. Everyone comes to me to get their eyebrows done.
You should never, ever apologize for anything that makes you happy.
I want everybody to think I'm a hard worker as an aunt, a sister, a friend, a daughter, a niece, everything. I want to be great at every role, because every role in my life is as important as being Jessie J.
