Jessie J has revealed how “proud” she is of fellow singer Adele by describing her as an “unstoppable character”.
The ‘Pricetag’ singer could see the star quality in the ‘Skyfall’ hitmaker when they went to school together as teenagers.
Jessie told Hello! Magazine, ''Adele is like this unstoppable character. She's amazing.
“I remember being at school with her and she had this aura about her that was a star and I'm really proud of her. It's like females UK, everyone is doing so well at the moment.''
Adele, 25, has become a global star with her 2011 album '21', which sold over 20 million copies.
The catalyst to her success has come from confessional tracks like 'Someone Like You', about lost love. Jessie, also 25, admits writing a similarly personal song for her second album, 'Alive'.
She added, ''It's very emotional, very personal. It's about a family member of mine who isn't themselves anymore. They're still alive but not themselves, in the sense that illness has taken them away a little bit.
“And I needed to write a song about it. I don't think I'd be able to sing it live, and I hope my fans respect that.
“But I gave my all in the vocals so that they have that, it sounds like a live performance.''
I don't know either personally but the impression I have always got is they aren't that close at all. The way they call each other 'babe' when they meet in that strange female way when you get the feeling there's some underlying tension lol.
