Jessie J: It's My Time 'To Shine' At The Brit Awards

February 15, 2011
Jessie J: It's My Time 'To Shine' At The Brit AwardsBrits Critics' Choice Award winner Jessie J has revealed that is finally her time 'to shine' at the awards tonight.

Jessie J, whose single with 'Price Tag' is still riding high in the UK charts, will receive the Critics' Choice Award at tonight's ceremony at London's 02 Arena.

"Finally it's my time to shine. The critics know I've worked my absolute butt off. I've been around for years. I was signed for four years before I even gave my first song away," Jessie J told The Sun.

She added: "Some say I was a writer first, which technically I was, but I'd always wanted to do what I'm doing now. This is my dream."

Meanwhile, Jessie J has brought the release of her debut album forward by a month.
