Jessie J on teaming with Ariana & Nicki on 'Bang Bang'...
The track got its FIRST play on Capital earlier today (29th July), and Jessie spoke to Capital before the debut about how the collaboration came together and how exciting it is to be working with two huge stars like Ariana and Nicki.
"I'm so excited to meet them and hang out and get to perform it," Jessie exclusively told Capital's showbiz reporter Kevin Hughes ahead of the first play. "I got played the song, loved the song, recorded the song.
"And then [my producer] was like, Ariana wants to do a verse," she recalled. "And obviously she's amazing. And then Nicki heard it and was like, 'Let me jump on it!'.
"It was like a real females, come together, empowering, supportive [vibe], and then Nicki jumping on it was like the icing on the cake," Jessie added.
We revealed the track this morning (29th July) on Capital airwaves for the first time - and from the reaction on Twitter, you guys LOVE it as much as we do.
