Jessie J Is A Leggy Superheroine In Her New Pretty Polly Ad

Sat Oct 15 2011 by Idolator Staff
It's a bird, it's a plane... it's a British pop star? No, Jessie J isn't campaigning to give Catwoman a run for her money in The Dark Knight Rises. But thanks to to Pretty Polly, the MOBO award-winner looks ready to leap tall buildings in a single bound in her leggy new advertisement for their new line of Statement Tights. The comic book-inspired artwork features the "Domino" diva baring her endless stems (in tights, of course), looking back at us with a fearsome "don't mess with me" glare as people go flying backwards due to the awesomeness of her gams. "Wham!" indeed! (At least she isn't letting a broken foot keep her down anymore.) See the full-sized ad after the jump. More »

Jessie J’s Surprising Style From The ‘Demons Never Die’ Premiere (PHOTOS)

Mon Oct 10 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman

Jessie J arrived at the British premiere of Demons Never Die in London today is a devilishly daring ensemble. The 2011 MOBO Award-winner stepped onto the red carpet in a head turning (albeit head scratching) outfit. Check out the UK Voice judge as she sports a powder blue and nude-colored, sequined bodysuit. We sure hope that fur coat is faux, Jessie! More »


MOBO Awards 2011: Jessie J Wins Big, Amy Winehouse Tributed By Goddaughter

Thu Oct 6 2011 by Becky Bain
For you non-Brits who aren't aware of the MOBOs, they celebrate Music Of Black Origin, and last night's ceremony was hosted by Jason Derulo. Rihanna was named Best International Act and Adele was named Best R&B/Soul Act (wait, Adele is considered R&B now?), but it was Jessie J who was the big winner last night, picking up four out of the five awards for which she was nominated. The full list of winners below. More »

Jessie J Glams It Up For The 2011 MOBO Awards (PHOTOS)

Wed Oct 5 2011 by Erika Brooks Adickman

It seems Jessie J is finally on the mend! The newly named UK Voice judge was seen without the crutches she’s been toting around since suffering a foot injury earlier this year as she arrived at the 2011 MOBO Awards dressed in a lacy black gown. Although the pop star was well enough to strut the red carpet on her own, the 23-year-old did use a sassy little scooter for her trips up to the stage to accept her many awards. Do you think the “Who You Are” songbird’s award show look is old Hollywood or is the Q cover girl channeling Morticia Addams? Sound off below. More »


Nelly Dreams Away At The MOBO Awards

Fri Oct 22 2010 by Robbie Daw
The 15th MOBO Awards went down in Liverpool, England on Wednesday, and a rather (read: majorly) buff-looking Nelly jetted over to perform his current smash "Just A Dream" for the audience. He even managed to keep his belt around his waist! Here in the States, "Just A Dream" remains locked at #3 for another week on the Billboard Hot 100. Maybe Nell ought to get those biceps back on this side of the pond and hit up some talk shows to give the song a good push to the top? Watch his MOBO performance below. More »

The Sugababes Saga Enters The “Severe Exhaustion” Chapter

Fri Oct 16 2009 by Maura

Amelle Berrabah, currently the second-most-senior member of the British pop trio Sugababes, is taking an “unexpected short break away from the pressures of work, following some professional medical advice earlier this week,” according to a statement posted on the girl-group-in-tumult’s site this morning. She’ll be staying in a private health clinic for the next three weeks and taking a break from the group, which has been forced to cancel even more upcoming live appearances as a result of all this. (Remaining members Heidi Range and Jade Ewen will, however, travel to an Irish gig that the ladies were supposed to perform at in order to press some fan flesh.) Apparently there’s going to be a Sugababes tour once Berrabah gets out of the hospital, but honestly, maybe we should just have the new group play one gig—or even one song—before making any claims like that, no?

Please, Not Another British Award

Fri Sep 26 2008 by Dan Gibson

As if the Mercury Music Prize, the Q Awards, the Music Of Black Origin Awards, the Brits, the Vodafone Live Music Awards and whatever else I’m missing weren’t quite enough music-related adjudicating for the residents of the UK, the British music magazine Uncut has jumped into the awards business with the Uncut Music Award. It seems an awful lot like the Mercury Prize, except that it’s open to non-Brits.
