The Grammy nominee took to Instagram to share the news because she "wanted to be open and share it” partly “because selfishly I do not talk about it enough.”

U.K. pop singer Jessie J announced her breast cancer diagnosis in a video on Instagram, saying she learned of it before her new single "No Secrets" was released.

Jessie J learned of her diagnosis two months ago, just before her single “No Secrets” was released in late April. During her statement, she emphasized how “sharing in the past has helped [her] with other people, giving [her] their love and support and also their own stories.”
