Joss Stone Asks: 'Why Don't People Like Me?'

Originally posted 11/14/2007 08:45AM

Joss Stone says her fellow Brits have turned against her. Why? Because she's spent so much time in the America!

"I felt kind of sad about it actually," she told the BBC during an interview with DJ Trevor Nelson Tuesday. "The only country that hasn't liked [my music] is my own."

The singer, who's promoting her most recent album, Introducing Joss Stone, said when she comes home, her countrymen generally respond, "Go away, we don't like you!"

She adds: "It's the whole country – and it's like they're mad at me for being in the U.S."

Joss Stone Plays Nice

It's not just her beyond-her-years voice and soulful style that set 17-year-old Joss Stone apart from other young pop stars: She also refuses to diss anyone (no matter how hard we tried to get her to). When we asked who she has met among the Britney-Christina-Lindsay Lohan-Avril Lavigne set, she demurred. "I usually meet people that are older and more into the soul thing," she told us at the recent Music Visionary of the Year Awards Luncheon in New York, where she performed a brief set. "But I have met some people who are younger, I guess." And does she, you know, like them? "Everyone's got different styles, you know? Everyone's on the same level. I respect everybody the same no matter what it is." Hmm. Don't look for her to try acting any time soon either: "Maybe in, like, 50 years, when I'm bored of singing. But I love singing so I'm not thinking about it." Also onstage at the event, which raised more than $700,000 for the Music for Youth Foundation, was Anita Baker, who is releasing her first album in 10 years in September.
