Jessie J shared an update on her breast cancer diagnosis in a video posted to her Instagram Stories on Monday.
"Good morning, I just opened my eyes," the "Price Tag" singer, 37, said from her bed. "I've just realized that everything I've posted since surgery, which makes sense, is old and nothing's real time because who wants to see this?" she said as she zoomed in on her face.
"But you know what? It's important for me to remember that I'm not doing it consciously. I just haven't actively been making content and feel myself, I've just been trying to rest," she continued. "I think people think that I'm like hanging on by a thread, which in some moments, has felt that way. Two or three days ago when I woke up, I couldn't breathe. I still have pain in my chest when I breathe, but it's not as bad, and I have very few other symptoms now. So I'm hoping it's just a viral p*** take."
Jessie J performs live at Espaço Unimed on April 30, 2024 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

WireImage Sydney recently participated in a jeans ad for American Eagle that sparked an intense public reaction. Left-wing critics users claimed that the ad — which features the tagline 'Sydney Sweeney has great jeans' — was full-on Nazi propaganda that promotes racism, eugenics and Western beauty standards. In one promotional clip, Sydney explains that genes are passed down from parents to offspring, 'often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color,' before declaring, 'My jeans are blue.'

American Eagle The ad included 'clever, even provocative language' and was 'definitely going to push buttons,' the company's chief marketing officer told trade media outlets. American Eagle responded to the discourse with a public statement in which the company defended its creative choices. 'This campaign is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her narrative. We will continue to honor the unique ways everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence,' the company said. 'Great jeans flatter everyone.' 8 Sydney Sweeney in her ad for American Eagle. American Eagle President Trump even weighed in on the ad, praising it as 'fantastic' after finding out that Sydney is a registered Republican voter.

Owner Who 'Needed a Break' Tries To Hide From Dog—Does Not Go To Plan
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman has shown the reality of life with a fetch-obsessed dog, where not even hiding behind the sofa can give you a break. Christa, who posts to TikTok under the username @christaniner, is the owner of mix-breed Basil, who is part Labrador retriever, Australian shepherd, and poodle. Australian shepherds are known to be a smart, active and work-oriented breed, according to the American Kennel Club (AKC), bred to excel as a herding dog, and with a strong work drive that can make them a handful as a family pet. In Basil's case, her herding and work drive shows up in her obsession with the ball—fetching and returning it to her owner. And she's not ready to take a break, even if her owner is tired. In a viral video posted on August 6, which has already racked up more than 600,000 views, owner Christa hides behind the sofa, her phone pointed upwards to show her hiding spot between the sofa and the curtains to the window. She wrote: "Hiding behind my couch because I needed a break from throwing her ball." But all of a sudden, Basil comes bounding up on the sofa, sticking her head over it with her ball in her mouth, as Christa lets out a cry of shock. Basil clearly thinks this is part of the game, as she begins pawing at and patting her owner, as though nudging her to get back and throw the ball again—which she stilll has in her mouth, and begins chewing excitedly. Christa can be heard laughing breathlessly at her dog's reaction, writing in the caption: "She found me so fast." Basil finds her owner and immediately starts patting her to throw the ball again. Basil finds her owner and immediately starts patting her to throw the ball again. TikTok @christaniner And TikTok users loved it, one commenter joking: "TAG YOU'RE IT," with Christa responding agreeing Basil has "tag skills." Another joked that Basil was saying: "We playing fetch not fetch and hide and seek!" "She said glad I won hide and seek so we can go back to playing ball," another laughed, as one put it: "She's like you're still on the clock get back to your work." Christa herself wrote multiple comments, describing her dog as running "a tight ship," adding: "I can't get anything past her," and "I need a better hiding spot next time." She also revealed that, after this video, she "had to give her an extra 100 throws to make up for hiding!" Newsweek has contacted @christaniner via TikTok for comment on this story.
