I am no diva: Jessie J

Pop star Jessie J feels since she does not have a bad attitude, she should not be known as a diva.

The 'Price Tag' singer, who is currently a judge on 'The Voice' UK, is furious that people believe she has got a big ego and a massive entourage waiting for her, reported Contactmusic.

"I don't think there has been any TV show where a woman hasn't had a diva stamp. I don't want anyone to think that's what I am because I'm not. I'm the total opposite. I have eight people in my team, not 50. You can't win. I realise that happens to women," she said.
 

The 25-year-old star has recently swapped her funky catsuits and trademark bob for a more sophisticated style and a shaved blonde crop, which she thinks mirrors her more grown up outlook on life.

"I'm more of a woman now. I'm having fun and still want to have fun. But it doesn't mean I have to wear a leotard now. I did that cartoony, crazy, dark-haired bob look and I loved it. But I have less make-up now. I feel like I've grown up.

"I was 17 when I got signed, 22 for my first single and now I'm 25. My album feels more mature," she added.
