Jessie J has confirmed plans to shave her head for charity live on TV

As previously reported, the singer will shed her locks in aid of Comic Relief's Red Nose Day on March 15.

She is set to shave her hair down to 0.5mm as the 'Domino' star fundraises in striking fashion.

Jessie J, who features in a new photo for the charity initiative, has now revealed that the shaving will take place live on air. She said:

"Shaving my head for charity is something I've promised to do for a long time and Comic Relief has given me the opportunity to try and raise as much money as possible for good causes by doing it. I've loved watching Red Nose Day since I was a kid and I'm so excited to join this year's team of celebrity 'fun raisers' and help support the campaign."

The Voice UK coach added: "So this Red Nose Day I'll be shaving my head live on the night on TV! I won't deny that I'm nervous but I am also honoured to be part of this year's campaign. Together with help from the UK public, we are on a mission to raise more money than ever before for Red Nose Day. So come on, let's do it!"
