Andrew Lloyd Webber Discovered Jessie J Back in the Day and She 'Can't Wait to Do a Musical'

Singer-songwriter Jessie J began her career in musical theater and she's impatient to get back to the stage! “I can’t wait to do a musical. It was my first musical love,” the Brit recently wrote on her Facebook page after she visited Broadway's Book of Mormon. She also posted a clip of her singing her “back inna di day audition song” from Les Miz, "On My Own” on the stage of the Eugene O'Neill, where the hit tuner is currently playing.

The “Domino” diva was nine when she was cast in a lead role in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s West End production of Whistle Down the Wind, the musical he co-wrote with Meat Loaf legend Jim Steinman. (Remember “No Matter What”? That show!). She later joined the U.K.’s prestigious National Music Theatre.

Jessie J's obviously never forgotten her roots. Check her out in all her superstar glory paying tribute to Lloyd Webber, the “first person who ever believed in me” below. We’re thinking a beautiful collaboration could be on the cards…
