The 'Price Tag' singer, who also received three nominations for the BRIT Awards 2012, said Sheeran will win at least one award out of the four.

''I'm so happy. Me and him were on the circuit together a long time ago and I used to see him gig," Jessie told Capital FM. I remember going to all the underground events and being like, 'this guy is amazing'.

"I remember we were trying to get a deal in American at the same time, always crossing paths," she explained. "It's nice to see people that you not just respect their music but you genuinely like as a person and you see them as a mate. So I'm really really proud of him."

I know he's going to win at least one."

The Brit Awards 2012 will take place on the February 21 at London's O2 arena.
