Will.i.Am bowled over by Jessie J, wants to "make her a star in the U.S."

Hitmaker Jessie J has been praised by her fellow 'The Voice' judge Will.i.Am and he revealed that he wants to "make her a star" in the USA. 

Although the talented British songstress has already tasted success stateside with performances on Saturday Night Live and a collaboration with B.o.B on 'Price Tag' under her belt, the Black Eyed Peas mastermind said he's aiming to push her to new heights:

"Meeting Jessie has inspired me to really go, 'Wow!' Because, she's like that. She's bubbly, she's crazy. She's like raw, edgy. I would love to make her a star in the U.S. She's really fresh... she's dope."

Jessie J has been back in the studio recently working on new material, but took to social networking site Twitter earlier this morning (May 14) to tell her fans that rumours she reads about herself in the press don't get her down:

"Sticks and stones may break my bones but bull**** and lies written about me in the media won't hurt me! #justbetruetowhoyouare Goodnight my wonderful positive people :D xx sweet dreaming"
