What's Jessie J up to these days? Well, she just won a Chinese X-Factor style singing show
IT’S BEEN A while since we heard from Jessie J but the British singer has been keeping herself busy.

She was invited to take part in a Chinese show called ‘Singer 2018′ which is one of China’s most popular singing competitions and is similar to the X Factor.
The show pits the most talented professional performers from across Asia against each other. Jessie J became the first non Chinese performer to ever win the show over the weekend.
According to her Instagram Jessie was the first ever international star asked to compete in the show and she really defied expectations. She never came lower than 3rd in any of the rounds and took home 47.9% of the final vote.
She performed a few of her own songs throughout the show like ‘Domino’ and ‘Bang Bang’ and also paid tribute to Whitney Houston by singing ‘I Will Always Love You’ in the final which she said ‘make me want to be a singer when I was 4 years old’.
It won’t do her popularity any harm given that she now has over half a million followers on Weibo, the most popular social media network in China.
It sure beats advertising Tuc anyway.
