Jessie J's cancer diagnosis statement in full
THE singer took to social media with a candid video where she revealed her news.
She said: "Before
No Secrets
came out, I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. I'm highlighting the word early.
"Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding on to the word early I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period, I just wanted to be open and share it, one because selfishly, I do not talk about it enough.
"I'm not processing it because I'm working so hard. I also know how much sharing in the past has helped me with other people giving me their love and support and also their own stories. I'm an open book.
"It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse, that's the bit that kills me.
"I just want to and just let you guys know it wasn't something I'd planned. But yeah, I'm getting to keep my nipples. That's good.
"It's a weird topic and a weird situation, and I know that the press are going to say crazy stuff, but you know, what to get diagnosed with this as I'm putting out a song called
No Secret
s right before, a song called
Living My Best Life
.
"Which was all pre planned before I found out about this. I mean, you can't make it up. It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job.
"I am going to disappear for a bit after summertime ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive t**s and more music."
"So I'm currently experiencing some delayed sadness and frustration by having time to process what IS happening."
The star continued: "A little disappointed in myself I didn't say goodbye to my old boob enough. Sounds silly but that's where I'm at.
"Again that's my journey. I'm sure others felt and did it different.
"But for me I didn't think beyond the surgery. I was just being strong.
"Well now I'm here and letting myself be angry and sad and all the things. Just for a few days. Then I will sew some padding in a bra to even them out order some t shirts and crack tf on."

IRISH music icon Daniel O'Donnell has blasted "fake stories" circulating online about him and his family, saying: "It is so ridiculous you'd hope people wouldn't believe it." Wee Daniel and wife Majella have been married for over 22 years, tying the knot back in November 4, 2002 at St Mary's Church in Kincasslagh, Donegal.
