She’s not used to losing.
But Jessie J had to again settle for second place for a second week in a row of “Singer 2018,” a Chinese reality singing contest that pits famous singers against one another.
On Friday, the British pop star placed behind the Philippines’ very own KZ Tandingan, who performed a more jazzy rendition of Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.”
Her moody, eclectic cover featured a rap part in Tagalog in the middle, which she nailed as Jessie J watched.

Jessie J sang “Ain’t Nobody.” The result had her finish in second for two consecutive weeks after finishing top in the first three.
The “Price Tag” hitmaker was seen applauding the Filipina singer following her stunning turn on the stage.
The rankings were based on votes from the studio audience.
She and Jessie J will both return on the show next week for another round of performances.
According to Tandingan, she’s been a big fan of Jessie J and was elated to finally meet her idol.
