Who You Are

There are no sources on this article claiming this is the name of her debut studio album; removing it. I am aware of the Amazon source; it does not mention it is a studio album, however. "Audio CD" could mean it is a CD single. Yves (talk) 09:37, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Just J?

Her name needs to shortened either "Jessie" or "J." See Lady Gaga and how only "Gaga" is used. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 19:02, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

This seems like a difference case, though, since it's one letter. Since the "J" doesn't seem to stand for anything in "Jessica Ellen Cornish", we can assume this is a stage name (like B.B. King) and not initials (like T. V. Carpio). In this case, I believe we should use the full "Jessie J". Using just the "J" would be quite confusing. [If you want an example, think of a hypothetical sentence like, "After supporting UNICEF, J had...".] Lady Gaga is often known as simply "Gaga", while Jessie J is not known as either "Jessie" or "J". I believe this situation is comparable to that of Karen O or Vitamin C. Yves (talk) 03:19, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Well, Yves's above opinion explains all! Silvergoat (talk∙contrib) 15:34, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

If you want to shorten it i would probably just say "Jessie"? --SATURDAYmight. (talk) 20:51, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

jakobs rite, i mean, is it that hard to say 'jessie j'? r u so lazy to simply use ur voicebox 2 say 'jessie j'? that is her stage name so call her by her stage name! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.182.55.107 (talk) 19:46, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

I just thought it seemed tedious to say "Jessie J released this. Then Jessie J did that. Then Jessie J made a this." But you have a point. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 21:15, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Clearly it doesn't really matter, Jessie J is the name she is under. Leave it as such. Jakob 03:19, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Charts

Dutch Singles Top 100: #95 Do It Like a Dude, #24 Price Tag

Dutch Top 40: #20 Price Tag

Songwriting

The article said she wrote songs for Rhianna , Christina Aguilera etc. I have removed these as I can find no evidence. Her Sony/ATV publishers page only mentions Miley Cyrus - Party in the USA and Chris Brown - I Need This. Darwin-rover (talk) 01:17, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Do It Like a Dude was meant to be for Rihanna though. And I believe she said in an interview that L.O.V.E. was meant for Christina Aguilera (later for Leone Lewis). So I agree those artists should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.87.105.16 (talk) 16:17, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Charts

Who You Are (single) debuted at No. 112 in the USA this week (No. 12 on Bubbling Under)... Please include! --79.216.168.105 (talk) 17:22, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. If you have reliable sources, please provide them here and change the "answered" tag from "yes" to "no". Qwyrxian (talk) 05:30, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

Name

Perhaps the article should read

"Jessica Ellen Cornish (born 27 March 1988), better known by her stage name Jessie J" instead of "Jessie J (born Jessica Ellen Cornish on 27 March 1988)"

The second form implies that Jessie J is her legal name while the first form is standard for most other musicians. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bagv (talk • contribs) 08:54, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Confused

< In late 2010, Jessie J released her first single, "Do It Like a Dude" which was wrote by George Astasio, Jason Pebworth, Jon Shave, Kyle Abrahams, Peter Ighile. Originally, she wrote the song with Rihanna in mind >

so: who did write it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.181.115.117 (talk) 12:33, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Random Text

This random bit of text popped up under the "discography"-section. I deleted it... that should be fine, right?! "''''more'''' Jessie J is a popular celebrity know mainly for children about 12+ as some of Jessies lyrics contain sexual script or rude language. Apart from that Jessie J is a born singer which everyone cleary enjoys as she won a brit award and hopefully will win another few in the future." Wiki934 (talk) 18:08, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

born in ilford not in romford
