AFTER winning the “2018 Singer,” one of the top Chinese talent shows, Jessie J will kick off her tour of China.

Born in London as Jessica Ellen Cornish, the British singer and songwriter rose to fame after releasing her debut album “Who You Are,” the lead single of which, “Price Tag,” topped the charts in 19 countries including the UK. Other songs like “Nobody’s Perfect,” “Domino” and “Laserlight” all charted within the top 10 on the UK Singles Chart, which makes Jessie J the first British female artist to have six top 10 singles from a single album.

After that she released three albums: “Alive,” “Sweet Talker” and “R.O.S.E.,” serving up several hits such as “Wild,” “It’s My Party,” “Queen” and “Bang Bang.”

Before her debut, Jessie had written songs for various artists such as Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys. She is recognized for an unorthodox musical and performance style mixing soul vocals with contemporary R&B and pop elements.

Having served as the coach of “The Voice UK” and “The Voice Australia,” the versatile artist also supports various charitable causes and fights for gender equality.

After performances in cities like Wuhan, Beijing, Chengdu, Changsha, Tianjin and Shenzhen, Jessie is coming to Shanghai in September with her powerful and spectacular performance.
