Ever wondered why Jessie J always seems to go for trousers with waistlines high enough to make Simon Cowell wince?

The star will be seen spilling the beans on tonight's episode of The Graham Norton Show - revealing that a misspelled tattoo is to blame.

She explained that she had the ink applied after she first found fame, but that her mum later pointed out that it was wrong.

"I did it ages ago and had 'Don't lose who you are in the blur of the star!' tattooed on my side," she began.

"Not long after I had it done my mum said to me in tears, 'I don't know how to tell you this but it is spelt wrong.'

"I have 'Don't loose who you are in the blur of the stars!' It's really big which is awful."

And she confessed that she had gone to great lengths to keep the cock-up concealed, until now.

"It's the reason I always wear high waisted stuff. I'm not going to put a spelling mistake that close to a camera!

"I'm going to get it covered and I'm not having any more tattoos."

You can see Jessie telling all at 10.35pm on BBC One.
