Jessie J confirmed to her Twitter followers that she will be shaving her head in aid of this year’s Red Nose Day.

She will be one of many celebrities performing and encouraging us to perform dares as part of fundraising efforts for the event.

The “Fun Raisers” as well as Jessie J include Keith Lemon, Jason Donovan and The Muppets’ Miss Piggy.

Jessie J has been hinting for some time that she would love to shave her head for charity, as long as the right cause came along. Far from dreading losing her hair, she has been gushing with excitement to her followers tweeting:

"I am SO hyped for you all to be able to join me in doing DARES to raise money for @rednoseday."

The singer had been careful not break the news herself but instead spilled the beans when responding to questions from fans through the social media site. She ended up revealing that she would be shaving her head live during the Red Nose Day show on Friday 15th March.

She later tweeted the link to her sponsorship page and said: "56 days until I will be bald for @rednoseday...what dare will you do?!
