JESSIE J has revealed she has been diagnosed with breast cancer and will undergo surgery in days.
In an emotional post on Instagram she told fans: “I was diagnosed with early breast cancer.”
She added: “Cancer sucks in any form, but I’m holding on to the word ‘early.”
The 37-year-old said she would be undergoing surgery after performing at the Summertime Ball in London on June 15.
“It’s a very dramatic way to get a boob job,” she joked.
The singer told fans about her hesitation going public about her diagnosis but that she decided to be “open” for multiple reasons.
She said: “One, 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’m an open book.”
