The singer-songwriter confessed that she is unfamiliar with the Mercury Prize winner, but vowed to listen to her back catalogue following her victory.
Jessie J told NME: "I didn't see the ceremony, no, I was jet-lagged after a flight back from America so I had an early night. I live in a bubble.
"Could I be up for a Mercury next year? Possibly. I should probably find out what it is before then, ha ha."
After admitting to not knowing who PJ Harvey is, the star asked: "Is she good then?"
Jessie J, 24, also revealed that she plans to cover Oasis' hit 'Don't Look Back In Anger' when she goes on tour later this year.
She added: "I love performing acoustically. I won't change the song radically. I'll be singing 'Don't Look Back In Anger' the way it should be sung."
It was recently revealed that Jessie J will join Tulisa Contostavlos for the Judges' Houses stage of this year's X factor.
