Jessie J says charity head shave is a career highlight

Jessie J has revealed that shaving her hair off for charity was one of her top career highlights to date.

The British singer was at the mercy of the hair clippers in March as she had her head shaved for Comic Relief's Red Nose Day.

Speaking to Glamour magazine, Jessie J - who raised at least £500,000 through shedding her locks - said that the move was one of the best moments of her career so far. She said:

"Obviously, shaving my head was a massive highlight. I've been wanting to do it for a long time but I wanted to be famous enough that it would raise a lot of money."

The 'Wild' star added: "The Olympics last August were unreal, it feels like yesterday and it was the most exhilarating feeling to be part of Britain's history. The [Queen's Diamond] Jubilee, obviously, was a huge moment, too. Being back on The Voice [has also been a highlight], and writing my second album has been a huge thing. It's been really challenging but I'm really proud of myself."
