British singer, Jessie J, has said she is now “cancer free,” one year after publicly revealing she had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
In a video posted on Instagram on Thursday, the singer is seen waiting for an MRI scan as part of a yearly check-up.
The caption read, “Results are in and I am cancer-free!” followed by 10 crying emojis.
She added, “I sobbed for hours and then exhaled for the first time in a year.”
In June last year, the Price Tag singer revealed her diagnosis on social media and underwent surgery later that same month.
Two months later, in August, she rearranged and cancelled upcoming tour dates after revealing she needed further cancer treatment.
Jessie J said she decided to go public about her cancer in order to help process her diagnosis and show solidarity with others going through similar experiences.
The performer, who welcomed a son in 2023, said the diagnosis gave her “incredible perspective.”
“But honestly I need to process it and talk about it and, I need a hug,” she told fans.
“You have loved me through all my good and hard times. And I don’t want this to be any different.”
The singer has faced several health challenges throughout her life, including a heart condition diagnosed in childhood, a stroke during her teenage years, and temporary deafness in 2020 caused by Ménière’s disease.
In 2024, she also revealed she had been diagnosed with ADHD and OCD.
“Nothing has broken me”
In December last year, she told Women’s Health, “I’ve always had obscure health issues that [doctors] can’t figure out.
“Nothing has broken me. And I believe I’ve gone through all the things I have to help people. Even if it’s just to write songs about it.”
Jessie J has achieved three UK number one singles: Price Tag, Domino, and Bang Bang (with Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj).
In 2011, she won the Brit Awards Critics’ Choice award and has also received four MOBO Awards, including Best UK Act and Best Album for Who You Are.
She released her latest album, Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time, in November 2025.
