I just love her! I love musicals but I'm not that musical but I've seen so many (an embarrassing amount) and I know for a fact that stage presence and charisma are just as important as a good voice. She has all three!
she'd done a lot of cabaret before she went for Nancy so she'd gotten in some bad habits. Cabaret singers often go a bit OTT she toned it down by the end of the series though, check out Send In The Clowns, that was her finest moment on the show!

What's with the quite insanely overdone eyes, eyebrows and mouth movements? She can sing fine - but it just looks so weird - so OTT.
Look's like she's trying to pack a complete lifetime of overacting into one minute, either that or she's just been released into the community without her medication!
hahaa seems harsh. but actually after watching it again its so true! :L by the time she got on the live shows she'd toned it down a bit though thankfully! haha love her.
Besides, if she was a fame whore then she'd be photographed in the Sun coming pissed up out of clubs. The reason she went on 2 reality shows is because she really wanted to succeed.

are we serious??? honestly, i don't think this girl would even get her equity card in the US. Her diction is awful, her voice is SOOO tense, she perpetually sings on a schwa, and she's overacting. I don't get it.
actually, not. i don't even k now who jessie is. i'm just an american theatre actor who read seth rudetsky's blog and was curious. i was so excited to see the nancy that was chosen in this overseas competition, and when this came up on my screen, i was genuinely disappointed... i see a LOT (LOOOOT) of theatre, and i'm entitled to my opinion.
Rudetsky has a dry sense of humor towards reality theatre shows so I don't take his comments too seriously. But I agree with musicthefirstlove. I'm an American fan of IDA who was unsure if Jodie could tone down her cabaret style. But she *did* make rapid progress without losing that bubbly personality. I eventually warmed up to her. I believe Jodie can handle the demands of the West End, will make a great Nancy, and deserves to be up there with Connie and Lee.
She fits the type & she's defintely got the right voice.
I do hope the public doesn't make the mistake of letting Jessie win just because she's beautiful, sweet & a good singer, because neither her voice or looks are a match with what the role of Nancy requires.
And that fight with Sam and Jodie, please Jodie has always stood out in group numbers! Plus if they want a mother figure, as they have constantly mentioned, Jodie is prime suspect number 1!
But she can do all three, she can sing, act, she was questioned on her dancing, she proved she could do that! The girl's got it all!
urg i dont like it,it was funny that the judges worst nacy's (jessie and jodie)got through on public votwe and their faves had 2 singoff! unbelieveable! sam 2 win!
she sang sam under the table in jesus christ superstar, and if you say she cant act sad..
her versions of send in the clowns and on my own were the most emotional performances of the whole series, to say Sam is better is just sheer stupidity, she smiles even when singing a song that requires a different emotion other than the... "aren't i pretty" bright eyes and smile..
I'm not dissing sam because i love jodie, i'm dissing her because she can't act, the girl can sing though :D
in the beginning she sounds exactly like idina menzel especially when she says its me and not you
