Jessie J proudly displayed her physique in a black swimsuit, sharing a mirror selfie on Instagram after successfully overcoming cancer.

Oh my gosh, you guys, Jessie J just posted the most incredible picture! She said she’s feeling ‘spicy’ again, and honestly, she is. She’s rocking this one-piece swimsuit, and it’s seriously amazing. I’m obsessed! She shared it with all 14.2 million of us, and I’ve already screenshotted it like five times. She looks absolutely incredible!

In June, Jessie shared that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. She then had a mastectomy followed by reconstructive surgery.

She shared a photo with the caption: ‘After having a baby and battling cancer, this Aries mom is finally starting to feel like herself again.’

It comes after the mother-of-one compared her cancer surgery to an episode of Black Mirror.

The singer revealed she had cosmetic surgery but dislikes being completely anaesthetized, describing the experience as feeling like something from the science fiction series on Netflix.

Jessie described the experience to The Guardian, saying she dislikes being put under anesthesia. She explained that unlike emergency surgery where patients are wheeled down on a bed, she simply walked to the operating room wearing a gown, feeling exposed and vulnerable. She compared the feeling to something out of the dystopian television series, Black Mirror.

Dealing with cancer is awful, but I’m so grateful it was detected early. It’s been four months since my mastectomy, and my right breast now has a noticeably different shape – it feels a bit like a grapefruit under a fitted sheet.

The new implants are noticeably different in size from my original one. It felt really insensitive of them not to use a smaller size, especially since I’m already going through a difficult time. It almost felt like they were intentionally trying to make me feel worse.

That’s awful! It’s ironic because I previously said I wouldn’t consider breast augmentation due to my OCD – knowing I’d always find something imperfect. But then cancer took that choice away from me.

Jessie shared that she feels like health problems consistently arise whenever things are going well for her.

Jessie began her career as a child performer in London’s West End. While working, she was diagnosed with a heart condition called Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome. Shortly after signing a record deal with a girl group at age 17, she also experienced a minor stroke.

A car accident in 2020 injured her vocal cords just as she was preparing to launch new music, and it took a year for her to regain her ability to sing.

Jessie recently became emotional onstage while performing new, deeply personal songs at the London event for her album, ‘Don’t Tease Me with a Good Time.’ This marked her return to music following her fight with cancer.

The singer commemorated the four-year anniversary of her miscarriage with a new song called “Comes In Waves.” She then performed “I’ll Never Know Why,” a song dedicated to the memory of her friend and bodyguard, Dave, who passed away suddenly in 2018.

Jessie experienced a heartbreaking loss in 2021, but found joy again when she and her boyfriend, basketball player Chanan Safir Colman, welcomed their son, Sky, in May 2023.

She recently shared with the audience that it has been four years since she lost her baby, and asked if anyone else could relate to that experience, either personally or through someone they know.

It’s incredibly heartbreaking to go through something like this, and it’s impossible to truly be ready for it. This song is meant for anyone who needs a little comfort, and I hope it brings you as much peace as it has brought me.

The song featured heartfelt lyrics, including lines like ‘And I hate / How much I miss the future we never had / Holding onto hope ‘You’re with me everywhere I go’.

She explained that songwriting helped her cope with difficult times, turning her sadness into something positive by allowing her to express her feelings and connect with others through her music.

Jessie had a mastectomy in June to treat her breast cancer, but she recently shared that she’ll need another surgery.

She became overwhelmed with emotion after performing “I’ll Never Know Why,” a deeply personal song she’d written about Dave, whom she considered like family, following his passing.

Jessie shared with the audience that she feels Dave continues to watch over and protect her, like he did during the many years he acted as her security. She described his presence as a comforting and safe feeling.

She described how Dave supported her through difficult times, including anxiety attacks and frightening stalking incidents, after she became famous.

After every performance, he’d always take me for a walk, and he was the first person I’d see each morning. I’ve known a lot of people who’ve been in and out of my life, and many have stuck around, but he felt like an older brother to me.

He wasn’t universally loved, but I adored him, and I still do. I wish he could be here to see his children and family, and to witness everything I’ve accomplished. That’s why I want to honor him through my music, share his story, and hope that if it’s too late to help him, it’s not too late to help someone else.

In a heartfelt tribute after his passing, she wrote about his deep love for their children, saying it was his everything. She fondly remembered how they often laughed together until tears streamed down their faces, almost every day.

We built a world together with Penelope and her blue Shetland pony, sharing our hopes and deepest fears. You’ve been more than just someone I could rely on – you’re truly family. Four years, just you and me.

I’ll never forget when you surprised me with that amazing blue Shetland pony cake after The Voice Australia! And remember how much fun we had seeing Fifty Shades – we couldn’t stop laughing throughout the whole movie!

I’ll always remember your texts during breaks while I was filming The Voice – they always made me laugh. And those late-night walks we took, just to clear our heads. It was fun seeing who could yell ‘banana’ the fastest!
