Jessie J is the latest celebrity to be the victim of a series of robberies against wealthy residents in the greater Los Angeles area, with several famous people affected.
More than $20,000 in jewelry was stolen from the English singer and songwriter’s residence following a raid at her Southern California home.
Police told TMZ on Thursday that the 36-year-old music artist notified authorities earlier this week when she arrived at her Los Angeles mansion and saw that it had been burglarized.
The thieves broke a back window of the Bang Bang artist’s home to gain access to the mansion, where they made off with the expensive jewellery.
Police said no one has been arrested in connection with the crime involving the Lantern frontman’s mansion, but the investigation into the case continues.

In August, ILaw enforcement officials revealed TMZ that Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson’s cliffside home was broken into over the summer, when thieves broke the glass to get into a guesthouse on their property.
The actors were outside their hometown when the security alarm was activated due to broken glass, but this did not stop the criminals from entering the Pacific Palisades residence valued at $26 million.
News of the break-in at the Hanks home came nearly a year after the couple’s son, Chet, 34, encountered an intruder in his own home. At that time, the suspect reportedly attacked the arresting officers at the scene, but Chet was unharmed.
Notable names such as Bhad Bhabie, Sarah Hyland and Marlon Wayans have also been the subject of a series of recent robberies in the area that have authorities concerned because the criminal operations are becoming more brazen.
In July, Bhad Bhabie’s home was targeted by burglars after thieves smashed her back door and stole items such as handbags and jewelry. Law enforcement entered the rapper’s home after the alarm was activated shortly before 10 p.m. on July 12.
Authorities discovered signs of forced entry, but none of those who broke into the property were found at the scene, although a man in a black hoodie was seen fleeing when police arrived.
Bhad Bhabie, 21, whose real name is Danielle Peskowitz Bregoli, is believed to be worth a good amount of money after she recently revealed that she earned a whopping $57 million on Onlyfans.

Hyland, 33, also had her home broken into last summer by intruders after she saw ‘two masked men’ leaving her property on her security cameras.
The Modern Family star’s Los Angeles home was burglarized on July 27, also in broad daylight, after suspects broke a glass window to gain access to her home.
Hyland had been out of town at the time of the incident, but became aware of the crime while watching live security camera footage from his mobile phone after receiving an alert. TMZ revealed that police were called to the property and conducted a sweep to make sure none of the criminals were still lurking nearby.
Actor and comedian Marlon Wayans, 52, was also robbed in his Los Angeles home on June 29 and shortly after posted a warning to potential burglars.
In an Instagram post he said: ‘Don’t waste your time. They didn’t really get much because I don’t have anything. I have nothing of value in my house except MY HOUSE. Sorry, I live a simple life.’
TMZ previously reported that the robbery took place around 2:30 a.m. while his brother Keenen Ivory Wayans was sleeping. An employee discovered in the morning that the house had been ransacked and a safe had been taken.
