Jessie J reveals she is cancer free

Jessie J has revealed on Instagram that she is cancer-free, having being diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer last year.

The Price Tag hitmaker, who underwent a mastectomy after revealing she had been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer in June 2025, shared the joyful news on Instagram following her annual hospital check-up.

In a video posted to the platform, Jessie said: "So I'm back for my yearly check-up, I'm actually s******* myself, I'm not gonna lie. They told me there was no contrast, but I think there is based on this (pointing to the cannula in her arm)"

The 38-year-old continued: "Gotta go in for my MRI, pretend I'm not claustrophobic, and if you haven't had a breast MRI, you have to lay on your front, put your arms in the air like Superman. I might have to have a bigger bucket this time, for this big old b*** but fingers crossed, all good, positive vibes, don't worry about a thing."

She then revealed she had been given the all-clear, writing: "RESULTS ARE IN AND I AM CANCER FREE!! I sobbed for hours and then exhaled for the first time in a year."

Previously, Jessie detailed how much she hated going under the knife, likening it to appearing in the Netflix show Black Mirror. She told The Guardian: "I hate being put under. They walk you down. You know when you have emergency surgery you roll down in a bed, but this time I just strolled down with a gown on and my bum hanging out. You feel like you're in an episode of Black Mirror... Cancer sucks, man, but you know what? Thank f*** I found it early."

Stories like this also highlight why cancer support and awareness remain so important.

The ANZ Donation Station, a major annual live broadcast event run in partnership with NZME and ZM, helped raise vital funds for the Cancer Society ahead of Daffodil Day. 

The 2025 event, held on August 29, featured live music, celebrity guests and powerful personal stories to encourage donations.

Together with ANZ we raised $103,472! 🌼

She also spoke candidly about her recovery: "I had the mastectomy four months ago and my right breast now looks like a grapefruit under a tight bedsheet... They didn't do an implant as small as my original. How rude! I thought, no need to bully me, I'm already having a rough time. It's funny because I said I'd never get my boobs done because I've got OCD, and I know they'd never be perfect. Cancer ruined that plan."

Jessie also opened up about how her diagnosis affected her time with her three-year-old son Sky, whom she shares with partner Chanan Colman. She told Jamie Laing's Great Company podcast: "Yesterday I sobbed. I feel like cancer has robbed me of memories with my boy. I have missed stuff with the treatment and stuff moves so fast when you have a toddler. Some days are awful."
