Provides examples of:
- Adults Are Useless: All three adults in the "Who's Laughing Now" video are aloof to Young Jessie's actions.
- Alice Allusion: The tea party table in "Nobody's Perfect".
- Analogy Backfire: "Masterpiece" is supposed to be a positive song about accepting your flaws, but a few lines have the effect of discrediting her previous work as "not that great", specifically, "You haven't seen the best of me/I'm still working on my masterpiece".
- Apathetic Teacher: The teacher in "Who's Laughing Now" is shown at her desk rolling her eyes and showing lack of interest at the chaos in her classroom.
- Audience Participation Song: In live versions of "Wild", Jessie J has the audience sing back the "wild, wild, wild, oh-woah-oh" part.
- A Wild Rapper Appears!:
- B.o.B. spontaneously appears in "Price Tag".
- Taken to another level in "Wild". On the British single, both Big Sean and Dizzee Rascal do verses, with only a chorus separating them. In the American single, only Big Sean gets to rap.
- 2 Chainz in "Burnin' Up".
- Be Yourself: Don't lose who you are / in the blur of the stars ...
- Cloud Cuckoo Lander: She plays up this aspect of her personality in interviews.
- Covered in Gunge: In the video for "Who's Laughing Now", Young Jessie sprays her entire class of bullies with fire extinguisher fluid.
- Creator In-Joke: "Price Tag" starts with an ad-lib referring to "Coconut Man, Moonhead, and Pea", these being nicknames Jessie J and the co-producers/co-writers of the song gave each other: Dr. Luke was "Coconut Man" for his habit of ordering coconuts to the studio, Claude Kelly was "Moonhead" for his large head, and Jessie was "Pea" for her small head.
- Deliberately Monochrome: The music video for "Wild".
- Doing It for the Art: The message of "Price Tag".
- Double Entendre: While "Domino" uses several innocent similes, there's this line:You've got me breathing like I'm running 'cause you're taking me there...
- Flipping the Bird: Jessie J flashes both the middle finger and the inverted-V in "Who's Laughing Now".
- Female Empowerment Song: "Do It Like A Dude" is usually interpreted as one of these towards ladettes.
- Girl Posse: A younger version is shown tormenting Young Jessie J in "Who's Laughing Now".
- The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: The youngest of three sisters, Jessie J describes herself as the odd one out growing up with two academically minded sisters whilst being more inclined toward singing and arts.
- God-Is-Love Songs: "Thunder" is one of them, according to Jessie J herself.
- Hidden Depths: Before her debut single was released, she was getting praise from various other artists who described her as the "best singer in the world," " a musical genius," etc. Before becoming a solo artist, she wrote songs for Miley Cyrus, Chris Brown and Justin Timberlake.
- Her debut single "Do It Like A Dude" was written for Rihanna.
- Important Haircut: For the better part of two years, Jessie J continuously stated she would shave her head for charity. What's interesting is when she did finally get around to doing it, she was on the verge of a new album campaign...
- Intercourse with You: Under her real name of Jessica Cornish, she released a song called "Sexy Silk
", which is part of the Easy A soundtrack. It definitely fits the trope. In fact, this is basically her favorite subject — "Domino", "Wild", "Bang Bang", "Burnin' Up" are just a few of the songs about sex that she's made. - The Lad-ette: "Do It Like a Dude" is centered on the "man-dem."
- I Taste Delicious: Video for "Who's Laughing Now".
- Lingerie Scene: Jessie's in black underwear for most of the "Wild" music video, but in an artistic context. Ditto for the single cover.
- Melismatic Vocals
- Ms. Fanservice: She's known for her scantily-clad attire.
- Petite Pride: While she wasn't very pleased about the "Jessie J has no boobs" comments circulating around, Jessie did say that she is perfectly comfortable with herself, and that you don't need big breasts to be beautiful.
- Precision F-Strike: Although Jessie J already curses in both "Do It Like a Dude" and "L.O.V.E.," she drops an F-bomb in the otherwise clean "Nobody's Perfect" for good effect. In recent live versions however, she goes for a PG version.
- Self-Deprecation: Jessie calls out "video hoes" in "Price Tag". In the music video, that line is sung over a brief shot of Jessie in her thug outfit from "Do it Like a Dude".
- Self-Empowerment Anthem: "Who You Are" is about being okay to be hurt, as long as you Be Yourself.
- Singer Namedrop: "J-J-J-Jessie J!"
- Surreal Music Video: Nobody's Perfect has clear Alice in Wonderland influences, along with a room of clocks, Jessie in black glunk, and other surreal scenes.
- Take That!: The whole point of "Who's Laughing Now?" at former classmates. It's also directed at those who put her down as children and now act interested because of her fame.
- She also made a Take That! at Birmingham City Council on her social networking pages, although there is doubt over the authenticity of the Take That! at them.
- Three Minutes of Writhing: Downplayed because it's not as fanservice-y as most examples, but "Domino" features only Jessie, posing and dancing with various costumes in front of trippy green-screen backdrops.
- True Companions: She is best friends with fellow British singer Adele, with whom she went to school.
