  1. I’ve always thought she is one of the best vocalists, dare I say, ever!!

    But I think people weren’t/aren’t ready to admit it.

  2. I love Jessie, I really do. But there’s just too much vibrato throughout the whole song. I wish she had controlled it a little bit more.

  3. Apparently she applied for the role it must have been the acting let her down but that is the best version of that song end of

  4. Don't forget that this strong and incredibly talented woman just found out she has cancer. Her emotional and psychological state is still shaken, and yet she delivers a performance of this level. It doesn't matter if the end of the song wasn't 100%; we all have good days and bad days… but Jessie J continues to be incredible. She sings this song live on Instagram, and the level is as absurd as Erivo's. She almost got the role, but as there are evils that come for good, perhaps it was a blessing in disguise. We all know how the cast looked, extremely thin and sickly. If it were Jessie, in the state that Ariana and Erivo were in, how would her body react to cancer, with the debilitated state she would be in, if she got the role?

  5. The queen jessie deserves so much more attention and recognition. She is one of the most talented singers of our time ❤

  6. This is why I say theater kids / Broadway folks just know how to sing. No shade to any other artists that tries to get into Broadway. Broadway people are just trained different.
