Walsall's Jorja Smith named among top 50 'Movers and Shakers Of The Moment' by Elle Magazine
Walsall's Jorja Smith has been named among the top 50 'Movers and Shakers Of The Moment'.
The list, compiled by Elle Magazine, is 'a celebration of the next generation of game-changers and hell-raisers who are reframing the world of fashion, beauty, culture, politics and technology – and inspiring the Elle woman in 2018', says the publication.
Singer Jorja, aged 20, stars on the Movers and Shakers list, which Elle describes as 'a curated list of emerging talent from around the world', alongside actors, artists, athletes, activists, and photographers.
"Every person on The Elle List has enormous talent, dazzling style, and is disrupting the status quo in 2018," says the magazine.
"This list marks Elle’s commitment to using our platform to shout about a brave and brilliant new generation who are pushing the needle and changing the world to make it a better place."
This is just one in a long list of accolades achieved by the young singer/songwriter of late, with Jorja winning the 2018 BRITS Critics’ Choice Award in December which led her to perform alongside chart-topping artist Rag 'N' Bone Man at the music awards ceremony in February.
Jorja also performed at US music festival Coachella and sang her single Blue Lights on ABC's popular American show Jimmy Kimmel Live back in April.
She has also collaborated with the likes of Drake, Stormzy and Maverick Sabre.
Jorja is set to release her debut studio album, entitled Lost & Found, this Friday.
