She then spoke to Bobby, aged 16 in the front row РІР‚вЂњ asking her and the audience not to cover their faces with their phones, saying РІР‚СљI want to see your faces to see how you respond to my songs.РІР‚Сњ Now 31, Jessie seemed much more nostalgic last night talking a lot more between songs about where she came from and who she was, saying, РІР‚СљIРІР‚в„ўm just a girl from Essex who likes to sing to pay the rent,РІР‚Сњ before reflecting on who she was a person and giving advice to the young people in audience and singing NobodyРІР‚в„ўs Perfect. I was delighted to be invited back.РІР‚Сњ She asked the security team to be more relaxed and to allow the audience to be able to come up forward and dance in the aisles, adding, РІР‚СљI donРІР‚в„ўt think theyРІР‚в„ўll be much trouble.РІР‚Сњ Going on to say, РІР‚СљThis is one of my favourite shows. With the crowd up dancing, Jessie said, РІР‚СљStay standing weРІР‚в„ўre going to have a party tonight.РІР‚Сњ She then commented that she hoped someone was getting married as youРІР‚в„ўre all dressed up for one. She opened her set with two of her classics MasterpieceР’В and Dude.

The show started off well with Jessie arriving through the centre of stage on to a high podium with a huge silver ball above her head and large bank of stage lighting. However this year it was quite different and there definitely seemed a mixed bag of reaction between the younger and older audience. Jessie J opened Henley Festival in 2015, and in our review we said РІР‚Сљwith aРІР‚в„ў bangРІР‚в„ў on the floating stage with her big voice and raunchy performance sheРІР‚в„ўs renowned for, to the delight of the audience which ranged from 12 to 70+. Well that probably depended on whether you were a 15/16 year old in the first few rows last night in the front of the stage or much older to see Jessie J.

Greener Henley (formerly Henley in Transition).
