      Both Adele and Jessie J thrived in the relaxed environment of the BRIT School. Jess is famously bisexual and there has never been any indication she hasn’t been comfortable with her sexuality. Adele has surrounded herself with many gay friends and can be camp in a theatrical way, made charming by her persona as the cheeky chapette from Tottenham.

      A mutual gay friend explains, ‘It was all to do with making the space comfortable and safe. It wasn’t a big thing to come out at the school. There were just as many gay boys as there were straight boys – and gay girls as there were straight girls. For the first time, you were able to look around and think, oh, I could date you and I could date you.

      ‘You had the freedom to develop as a person and that is hugely important in creative arts. It was such an eclectic range with great personalities but no edge. Some of the people were suburban and some of them were real London urban kids with no money, did terribly at school but had an amazing singing voice or could draw like no one else could draw, an amazing graffiti artist or a brilliant actor.
