Jessie J has revealed that Whitney Houston was her inspiration since childhood and meant a lot to her.
Speaking on Houston's third death anniversary in a video, the 'Bang Bang' singer, 26, who's been covering Houston's emotional belter 'I Have Nothing' in her recent live shows, also talked about the moment she found that the late singer had tragically passed away, the Daily Star reported.
The song was also the one that Jessie had sang on her audition 10 years ago that resulted in her record deal, and subsequent global success.
Jessie explained that she was so close to meeting her musical idol in 2012 at a Grammys record industry party where she was to perform too, but she learned after her performance that Houston passed away earlier that evening.
