Jessie J Comes Clean About Scary Health Diagnosis That Will Make Her 'Disappear' From The Spotlight
is opening up about a private health battle that has been plaguing her. The British artist took to social media to share the news of a cancer diagnosis. The heartbreaking announcement comes two years after the "Price Tag" singer welcomed her first child, son Sky, with her partner, Chanan Colman. Jessie J, who is returning to the music scene after a four-year hiatus, informed fans of her plans to leave the public eye while she undergoes surgery. In an emotional Instagram video, Jessie announced to her fans that she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. "I've been going back and forth a little bit on should I share it?" the singer candidly confessed. The 37-year-old admitted she was concerned about the "opinions" of others and was particularly worried that the media would "make this way bigger." However, pushing past her fears, she decided to speak up because she loves sharing her life with her fans. The United Kingdom native revealed that she got the news of the diagnosis in April 2025, shortly before the release of her comeback hit single, "No Secrets." "I was diagnosed with early breast cancer. I'm highlighting the word 'early.' Cancer sucks in any form, but I'm holding onto the word early," Jessie said in the clip. "I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period." She explained her decision to let the world in on her secret battle, admitting that she "selfishly" hadn't spoken about it enough. "I'm not processing it 'cause I'm working so hard," the mother-of-one confessed. However, Jessie understands the power of sharing her truth and how it has led to her receiving love and support when she needed it the most. She also believes her cancer story will help others speak about theirs. "It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much, similar and worse. That's the bit that kills me," she shared. Calling herself an "open book," the singer fought back tears as she declared that her cancer diagnosis wasn't something she "planned." She reflected on the journey so far and how it coincided with her music comeback, saying: "To get diagnosed with this, as I'm putting out a song called No Secrets, 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." Nevertheless, Jessie is soldiering on and focusing on defeating breast cancer. She informed fans of her plans to undergo surgery. "It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job," she joked. Using humor to discuss the sensitive topic, "The Voice UK" judge called her surgery a "weird topic." She concluded the heart-melting video, confirming that she would retreat from the spotlight in the meantime. "I am going to disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery, and I will come back with massive t-ts and more music, she said. In the post's accompanying caption, the London native poked fun at her recent song titles, writing, "No (more) Secrets and is it too soon to do a remix called 'Living my breast life'?" Putting the jokes aside, she acknowledged that while her diagnosis gave her "the most incredible perspective," she "needs a hug." Although the songstress might not be able to receive hugs from her fans worldwide, many surrounded her with love and encouragement in the comments section. "Open book and open heart. We love you and support you always. Sending you the best energy for a speedy recovery, warrior," a caring fan penned. "You are the strongest person, Jess. Sending you so much love and light for your healthy healing," another comment read. "You have been so brave and strong and, as always, hit it with humour," a third fan wrote, praising the Critics' Choice winner. Moved by the outpouring of support, Jessie took to her Instagram Stories to appreciate her dedicated fan base. "You have loved me through all my good and hard times." Jessie J's heartbreaking health news comes less than a month after her performance at the BAFTA TV Awards 2025 made headlines. It marked her first performance on stage in six years, and fans were thrilled to see the singer perform "The Award Goes To." Although the powerful rendition received praises online, the singer didn't think it was her best performance. She admitted in a statement shared on social media that acid reflux affected her vocals. "My acid reflux about 2 hours before my performance on the BAFTAs tonight said, 'HELLO JESS,'" she wrote, per the Daily Mail. "People who know how that is (or singers), I'm sure, could see me struggling, but I threw the mic stand and pushed through."

Jessie J opens up to fans about new breast cancer diagnosis
The Price Tag singer, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, was first diagnosed two months ago after spending a period of time 'in and out of tests.' English singer-songwriter Jessie J revealed to her fans on Wednesday that she was diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. The Price Tag singer, whose real name is Jessica Cornish, was first diagnosed two months ago after spending a period of time 'in and out of tests.' Jessie J made the announcement in an Instagram video after admitting that she had gone 'back and forth' on making her health condition known publicly. She has previously shared her ADHD and OCD journey with fans. She said that she had finally decided to share the news 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 want to share it with my fans and the people that care about me, and also I'm a sharer. I've always shared everything that I go through in my life,' she began her video by saying. '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.' Jessie J joked, 'You can't make it up' as the diagnosis comes sandwiched between her new releases, "No Secrets" and "Living My Best Life." While the news have been been difficult to swallow, the singer has maintained her sense of humor through the ordeal, telling fans: 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job' and promising to come back with 'massive tits.' She confirmed that she will be undergoing surgery after the Summertime Ball in June. Approximately 4500 women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year in Israel, and one in eight will receive a diagnosis at some point in their lifetime, according to the Israel Cancer Association. Annually, 900 die from the cell mutation. The association stressed that all women aged 20 and over should become familiar with their breasts so they can quickly detect any changes that would help ensure an earlier diagnosis. While breast cancer is more frequently diagnosed in women, men may also develop the condition. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns to watch out for these symptoms: New lump in the breast or underarm; thickening or swelling of part of the breast; irritation or dimpling of breast skin; redness or flaky skin in the nipple area or the breast; pulling in of the nipple or pain in the nipple area; nipple discharge other than breast milk, including blood; any change in the size or the shape of the breast; and pain in any area of the breast.

Singer Jessie J reveals early breast cancer diagnosis in video to fans
British pop star Jessie J has been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer. The Price Tag, Domino and Bang Bang singer, 37, shared the news in a video detailing her health situation on Wednesday, saying she plans to have surgery after her performance at the Summertime Ball in London on June 15. 'I have been in and out of tests throughout this whole period,' she said of the news she had 'been holding onto for nine weeks.' 'I just wanted to be open and share it — one, because selfishly I don't 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.' The popular entertainer said she had been weighing up when to tell her fans. 'To get diagnosed with this as I'm putting out a song called No Secrets, right before a song called Living My Best Life, which were all pre-planned before I found out about this — I mean, you can't make it up,' she said. Following her performance in just over a week, she will take a break to undergo surgery. 'It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job,' she joked. '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.' Fellow singer Rita Ora was among those who offered messages of support. 'You're literally my favourite person and I'm praying for you. You've got this,' Ora said. 'My mother had it, and I know the surgery and any treatment on this matter is mentally tough, so I'm here for you.' Jessie J, a mother of one, has been open about her health in the past — including a diagnosis of Meniere's disease, an inner ear condition that can cause severe dizzy spells and hearing loss. In 2021, she announced she had suffered a miscarriage, and in 2024 revealed she had been diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
