Jessie J: “I base my confidence on purity”

Jessie J embraces being a role model.

The singer likes being a positive influence for young people.

“You can be who you want to be without taking the path of cigarettes, alcohol and drugs. I base my confidence on purity,” she said. “It’s important for me to embrace being a role model, and that young people have someone to look up to who does that.

“You need to have self-belief, because if you don’t believe in yourself then nobody else will believe in you.

“When a door closes in your face, it’s not the end. It means there’s a bigger, more beautiful door around the corner. You just have to go and find it.

“I’m addicted to performing, I’m someone who craves the stage. For those who have seen me live, that’s where I’m most comfortable.”
