Jessie J wants to be as big as Rihanna

Jessie J has said that she wants to be as big as Rihanna.

She told The Daily Star: 'I will be a British pop icon standing shoulder to shoulder with Rihanna, Pink and all the American girls.

'It's hard not to come across as cocky but you have to believe in yourself.

'You always think of US artists when you think of pop icons. Nobody has done that big pop thing from the UK, so I feel:'why not me'?'
