'I will come back': Pop star shares bold declaration amid life-threatening condition

The entertainment industry is home to some of the quirkiest and most talented individuals.

Yet, in a world full of glitz and glamour, stories about hardships and struggles often gut professionals and fans alike.

Recently, a vocal powerhouse shared a massive life update, and she's facing it head-on.


Pop sensation Jessie J is famed for her infectious energy and her willingness to share her life's ups and downs.

In a candid message, the British singer revealed a deeply personal challenge and the reason why she has been away.

The 37-year-old singer revealed that she has been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.

She revealed that her diagnosis came just before the release of her recent single, 'No Secrets,' last April.

The 'Price Tag' singer broke the news on social media, admitting that she had been going back and forth with the idea of sharing the news.

'I'm a sharer. I've always shared everything that I go through in my life,' Jessie explained.

Despite the life-threatening condition, Jessie reassured her fans that she was doing well.


Since the diagnosis, Jessie J has been receiving medical treatment.

'I'm getting to keep my nipples… that's good. It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job!' she added, showing her signature sense of humour even during adversity.

Jessie J is set to perform at one of the United Kingdom's major music festivals, Summertime Ball.

After her performance on 16 June, she will be on a break to focus on her health.

'I am gonna disappear for a bit after Summertime Ball to have my surgery.'

'And I will come back with massive t*** and more music,' she declared.

Jessie's resilience is nothing new, as she was candid about her health struggles.

In 2020, she was diagnosed with Ménière's disease, a condition affecting the inner ear, causing severe dizziness and hearing loss.

In 2021, she bravely shared her experience of miscarriage.


Last year, she opened up about her mental health after being diagnosed with both obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

After her story, fans and fellow celebrities showed their support and solidarity towards Jessie J.

'You're literally my favourite person, and I'm praying for you,' pop star Rita Ora commented.

'You've got this. My mother had it, and I know the surgery and any treatment on this matter is mentally tough, so I'm here for you.'

Others also praised Jessie for being an 'open book and open heart.'

Through it all, Jessie has continued to inspire her fans with her honesty, humour, and determination.

Jessie's story is a powerful reminder of the importance of early detection when it comes to breast cancer.

In Australia, breast cancer is the most common cancer among women.

One in seven Australian women are being diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.

The good news is that early detection significantly increases the chances of successful treatment and recovery.

If you or someone you know is facing cancer, there are many resources available in Australia—including Cancer Council Australia and Breast Cancer Network Australia.

We wish Jessie J a smooth and full recovery.
