She continued, "To get diagnosed with this as I'm putting out a song called 'No Secrets,' right before putting out 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."
Of her decision to share her diagnosis publicly, Jessie J said, "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," she added. "It breaks my heart that so many people are going through so much similar and worse. That's the bit that kills me.
Jessie J reveals she's pregnant: 'Happy and terrified to finally share this'
Later in the video, Jessie J, who has a performance scheduled in the U.K. on June 15, said that after that performance, she's going to "disappear for a bit to have my surgery," promising that she will "come back with massive t--s and more music."
"It's a very dramatic way to get a boob job," she joked.
The singer's post quickly garnered supportive comments from fans and fellow musicians alike, including Katy Perry, Rita Ora and Leona Lewis.
Over the years, Jessie J has been open about her health, speaking publicly about the heart defect with which she diagnosed as a child, as well as experiencing a miscarriage in 2021. She has also been diagnosed with an inner-ear disorder, as well as with obsessive compulsive disorder, or OCD, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD.
Notably, studies show that the five-year overall survival rate for early-stage breast cancer is over 90%.

‘Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake' Continues To Look Really Lovely
The upcoming Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake still continues to impress and look lovely in its latest trailer. While the Western version of the Nintendo Direct omitted any mention of Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake, the Japanese version covered the game quite a bit. Thankfully, Square Enix uploaded the trailer to their channel and in English, too. Unlike the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, this new instalment combines the first two games into one package. This makes sense, as the first two games were a lot shorter than the third game in the series. Moreover, Dragon Quest III was the narrative start of the original Erdrick trilogy, before Dragon Quest XI came along at least, and it makes sense storywise that the first two Dragon Quest games would follow the third for these remakes. It's also important to point out that in the first Dragon Quest, you only play as one character, that of Erdrick. Or, more accurately, the descendant that gets to use that name. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder The second game includes more characters for your group, but the first Dragon Quest is a more solitary endeavor, and it will be interesting to see how that plays out in this new remake. I am also loving the very British voice acting and dialogue. It fit really well for the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, and this looks to be just as good, if not better. The other big news is that Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake will also be released on Switch 2, as well as the original Switch, which I think is great. Dragon Quest has a very Nintendo-specific heritage to it, and it just feels right that Nintendo's latest console would also be supported for a game like this. Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake will be released on October 30 for Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, via Steam. Follow me on X, Facebook and YouTube. I also manage Mecha Damashii and am currently featured in the Giant Robots exhibition currently touring Japan.
