Jessie J has announced that she is officially cancer-free, nearly a year after revealing she had been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer.
The 38-year-old singer shared the emotional update with fans on Instagram after attending a hospital check-up and MRI scan. In the video, Jessie admitted she was nervous ahead of receiving the results.
"So I'm back for my yearly checkup. I'm actually s---ing myself, I'm not gonna lie," she said in the clip. "Gotta go in for my MRI. Pretend I'm not claustrophobic."
Trying to stay positive before the scan, the "Price Tag" singer joked about the procedure and sang Bob Marley's "Don't Worry About a Thing" while waiting for the appointment. She later confirmed the life-changing news in the caption accompanying the post.
"RESULTS ARE IN AND I AM CANCER FREE," Jessie wrote. "I sobbed for hours and then exhaled for the first time in a year."
Jessie first revealed her diagnosis in June 2025 while promoting her album Don't Tease Me with a Good Time. At the time, she explained that she had been "in and out" of medical tests before learning she had early breast cancer.
She later underwent a mastectomy and additional treatment, which forced her to postpone and rearrange parts of her tour schedule.
Throughout the past year, Jessie remained candid about both the physical and emotional impact of the illness. During a performance at Irving Plaza in New York earlier this year, she reflected on how the diagnosis arrived just days before the release of new music.
"Having breast cancer 10 days before releasing [an album for the first time in years] was honestly the rudest thing that my boobs could've ever done," she joked, drawing laughter from the audience.
She also spoke about how the experience changed her perspective on life. "Jessica got Jessie J through and Jessie J got Jessica through," she said, explaining how she balanced life as a performer, mother, daughter, sister and friend during treatment.
