Joss Stone


British vocalist Joss Stone was only 16 years old when she appeared on the universal pop/rock radar in 2003, ready to challenge the pop domination of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera with a grownup sound that belied her young age. Positioning herself among the more established and credible artists (Norah Jones, Jill Scott, Nikka Costa), Stone soon garnered a devoted audience at home and abroad, first for her reinterpretations of classic soul gems (The Soul Sessions) and, one year later, for her songwriting chops and sultry delivery (Mind, Body & Soul).



Born Joscelyn Eve Stoker in 1987, Stone grew up listening to American soul and R&B, particularly the throaty stylings of Aretha Franklin. It didn't take long for Stone to realize she possessed an impressive vocal style with both depth and emotion, much like her idols. In 2002, Stone left her family home in Devon, England (also home to Coldplay's Chris Martin), to attend an audition in New York City. The young vocalist wowed S-Curve CEO Steve Greenberg with her rendition of Donna Summer's "On the Radio," and a record deal was quickly inked between both parties. With her parents' permission, Stone dropped out of school and changed her last name and she primed herself for a career in entertainment.

Incoherent, virtually friendless and depressed - what is happening to Joss Stone?


Backstage at the Brit Awards, Joss Stone is in full flow, tossing her frazzled pink mane to and fro as she holds forth about her ‘amazing’ new record.


Utterly oblivious to the lateness of the hour and the fact that this is her umpteenth interview, the 19-year-old shows no sign of tiring at the sound of her own voice and is clearly enjoying the attention of the two men who are hanging on her every word.


Then, after a rambling five-minute monologue (delivered in that peculiar highpitched transatlantic drawl which betrays nothing of her Devon roots), she finally looks down for a moment and stops mid-sentence.


Her ‘interviewers’, she suddenly realises, are holding walkie-talkies, not tape recorders.


They are not journalists but a pair of security guards who were far too polite - and scared - to inform the singer of her folly.


Welcome to the random world of Joss Stone: teenage millionaire, self-confessed dope smoker and desperately lonely girl whose best friends are her mother, her dog and her hairdresser.


"It was absolutely hilarious and at the same time very sad," says a source who witnessed the Brits debacle.


"Joss had been running around making a fool of herself all night. Her bizarre psychedelic mini-dress, her hair, her ludicrous accent and her self-obsessed attitude were driving everyone mad.
