Jessie J has cited her ongoing health issues as the force behind her successful music career, and claimed "being that sick made [her] Jessie J".
The 27-year-old singer - who suffered a minor stroke as a teenager - made the comments while promoting her stint on The Voice Australia alongside fellow coach Ricky Martin on Mornings.
"It's affected me my whole life," she told Sonia Kruger. "I had a minor stroke when I was 17. The weirdest thing is that being that sick made me Jessie J."
The star has a condition called Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, which can cause irregular heartbeats and shortness of breath.
