A new book written by Chloe Govan claims that Jessie J is a lesbian and that her record company told her to act bisexual. In the book titled Who’s Laughing Now Govan claims that Jessie J didn’t want to go ahead with the plan but was afraid of losing her contract, so she eventually agreed.
According to the Daily Mail, Govan wrote: “She was advised not to come out, though. Certain people thought being bi was trendy, exotic and a fashion statement. It would increase her allure… Being gay would alienate people. They knew how important image was and asked her to tone it down a bit.”
Last year Jessie J was quoted as saying “I’ve never denied it. Whoopie doo guys, yes, I’ve dated girls and I’ve dated boys – get over it… If I meet someone and I like them, I don’t care if they’re a boy or a girl.”
Who’s Laughing Now?: The Jessie J Story is available to purchase online now at Amazon.
Jessie J recently toured Australia as part of the Future Music Festival lineup. During the tour she was forced to cancel her performance in Perth due to illness.
