For the past three months, Jessie J has been a contestant on the Chinese show Singer, the Chinese version of The X Factor.
And over the weekend, the singer was crowned the winner of the competition.
The Price Tag singer previously appeared as a judge on the Voice UK, but decided to participate as a contestant on the Chinese show.
Taking to social media to discuss the win, the singer revealed that she, “was the first international to ever be asked/compete.”
The singer competed on the show every week, performing a mix of her own songs as well as covers, but it was her final performance of Whitney Houston’s I Will Always Love You that won over the audience and judges.
Performing on the show gained the 30-yea-old a HUGE new audience, as the finale of the competition was reportedly viewed by A BILLION people.
She confessed that she competed on the show because she wanted to do something new, and hoped to bridge the gap between the two cultures.
“I said yes because I LOVE to do the unexpected and I LOVE to represent the UK and singing everywhere I go. I LOVE to sing. But also it was an opportunity to bridge a gap between two cultures. For them to see a western performer and hear music some had never heard before and visa versa,” she wrote on Instagram.
In another emotional post about her performance, she revealed, “I will always love you is the song that made me want to be a singer when I was 4 years old.
“Ihave wanted to sing this song for YEARS. Trust me, but I only ever wanted to sing it if and when I felt I had earned it and deserved it.”
Jessie J is set to release her next album R.O.S.E. in 2018.
