Fame is hard, feels Jessie J

Singer Jessie J says people can't understand how hard it is to be famous unless they have been there themselves.

The "Bang Bang" hitmaker likes to offer support and advice to other artists because it isn't "easy" being in the public eye.

"We've all been there. And I know how hard it is. Until you're famous and you go through what we go through, you can't understand. No one understands," contactmusic.com quoted Jessie as saying.

"I think that it's important for people that are in a similar situation to help each other out, when it's tough, so that's how I am as a person.

"And all my friends understand that about me and sometimes I put my hands out. And if people want it, then great. It's really important that we support each other because its not easy," she added.
