Jessie J sold glass house due to fame
Jessie J had to sell her glass house because of fame.
The 26-year-old singer was forced to sell her home in Surrey, south east England, after fans started to flock outside her plush pad in a desperate attempt to catch a glimpse of the star following her two series stint as a coach on talent show ‘The Voice’.
She said: »I bought a house in Surrey. It was all made of glass.
»But after ‘The Voice’ I had a new, weird level of fame and I had to sell it as I couldn’t be famous and live in a glass house. »
Jessie admits she has a degree of sympathy for the new owners when she spotted a group of supporters outside the home singing her 2011 hit ‘Domino’, after she had moved out of the abode.
Speaking on tonight’s (26.09.14) episode of chat show ‘Alan Carr: Chatty Man’, she added: »Six months after I sold, these kids were outside singing ‘Domino’.
»I felt so sorry for the people who bought it. »
While the raven-haired star has a huge fan base in the UK, she recently revealed she was planning to move to Los Angeles after selling her London home because she feels more »appreciated » across the pond.
She said: »In America they see me as a singer whereas here I feel that people don’t appreciate my voice. I’ve dedicated my life to singing and I want it to be taken seriously.
»Here it seems that all people want to know is what I’ve had for breakfast and who I’m sleeping with. »
