British chanteuse Jessie J is getting married to American singer Luke James after dating for only 5 months. The 26-year-old “Who You Are” singer came out as bisexual three years ago. Her preference for black lesbian studs was well known across the pond. But now she says all of that is a thing of the past.
In December, Jessie explained why she went public with her quickie engagement to James in an interview with JustJared blog.
“I think all of us women can agree, you go through so many different types of love growing up. I feel like at this time in my life, I’m nearly 27, I’m a grown woman and I’m famous,” she said. “I have to deal with that. So I felt like going public, it was like, I love him so why hide it or try and [make it] a secret.”
Jessie upset her gay fans when she said she is no longer interested in being a practicing lesbian. Gay advocates have long argued that homosexuality is not a choice and gays can’t stop being gay. But Jessie disagrees.
“I’m not bisexual anymore, I’m straight,” she tweeted. “I have felt under pressure since being famous to be what some people want me to be for them! I have learnt that the hard way. It’s too much!”
When a Twitter follower asked her to “get straight to the point,” she responded, “I only fancy/date/love men and only men. Is that ‘straight to the point’ enough?”
Jessie told the Daily Star she is madly in love with James, and that she knew he would be her husband before she met him.
“I am so in love with him,” she said. “He was booked to support me on tour before we even met. That’s how much I loved him as an artist.
“That’s before I met him and thought ‘I want you to be my husband one day’. It has only been five months but it feels right.”
