Jessie J had some wonderful news to share after a long and difficult battle with breast cancer. In an Instagram video posted on Thursday (May 21), the singer (born Jessica Cornish) revealed that she’s been tagged cancer-free after a recent checkup at the hospital.
Last June, in the midst of promoting her Don’t Tease Me with a Good Time album, Jessie announced that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a mastectomy a short time later.
“So I’m back for my yearly checkup. I’m actually s–tting myself, I’m not gonna lie. They told me there was no contrast but I think there is based on this,” J said in the video in which she was seated in a patient room in the hospital with an IV in her right arm. “Gotta go in for my MRI. Pretend I’m not claustrophobic.”
J then went on to describe the process of getting a breast MRI, saying, “you have to lay on your front and put your arms in the air like superman. I might have to have a bigger bucket this time for these big old b–ches but fingers crossed all good, all good. Good vibes,” she added as she sang the “don’t worry about a thing” refrain from Bob Marley’s “Three Little Birds.”
The caption to the post said it all: “‼️RESULTS ARE IN AND I AM CANCER FREE‼️ ????????????????????????????????????????. I sobbed for hours and then exhaled for the first time in a year ????????”
The singer got a lot of love from her fellow pop stars, with Lauren Jauregui commenting, “YAYYY!! Congrats mamaaaa!!!????????????,” Rita Ora writing, “What a joy. ???? ❤️” and Joss Stone offering, “Congratulations beautiful!!! Your an inspiration ???????????? so strong ????.”
Shortly after sharing her diagnosis, Jessie canceled all of her planned U.S. No Secrets tour dates and then postponed her U.K. and European shows. Jessie was back on stage in September for her first show since her surgery, performing at the BBC Radio 2 in the Park concert in Essex before a planned second round of breast cancer surgery last fall. “I’m just so grateful to be here,” she told the crowd. “You have no idea how grateful I am to see so many of you singing along after all these years. It truly feels like I’m a little kid. Still doing what I love.”
