Jessie J: ‘glad’ at The Voice UK Tour axe

Jessie J has revealed that she is glad that The Voice UK tour has been axed.

Official Ticket suppliers for the tour confirmed earlier last week that the arena tour had been cancelled all together after some cancellations previously and a venue change to suit smaller audiences.

The show’s contestants would have performed at arena’s across the UK including Manchester, Birmingham and London’s O2 Arena.

Talking to BBC Radio 1′s NEWSBEAT, Jessie commented “It’s always disappointing but you know what it’s not a bad thing i don’t think”

“Personally, maybe I shouldn’t say this but I will, I actually think it’s a good thing.”

“Not that it’s been cancelled but that they’ve now got the opportunity to go out and do their own thing.”

Jessie also said that she thinks sending finalists on tours makes shows too similar to rivals such as X Factor.
