Jessie J has revealed a heartbreaking news on social media. The singer said she suffered a miscarriage ahead of her performance at The Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles, according to Page Six.
She posted the tragic update alongside a photo of her positive home pregnancy test on Instagram. Her statement began with a broken heart emoji, signifying the terrible news.
š Yesterday morning I was laughing with a friend saying āseriously though how am I going to get through my gig in LA tomorrow night without telling the whole audience I am pregnant.ā
āBy yesterday afternoon I was dreading the thought of getting through the gig without breaking downā¦ after going for my 3rd scan and being told there was no longer a heartbeat š
This morning. I feel like I have no control of my emotions. I may regret posting this. I may not. I actually donāt know.
What I do know is that I want to sing tonight. Not because Im avoiding the grief or the process, but because I know singing tonight will help me.
I have done 2 shows in 2 years and my soul needs it. Even more today. I know some people will be thinking she should just cancel it. But in this moment I have clarity on one thing. I started singing when I was young for joy, to fill my soul and self love therapy, that hasnāt ever changed and I have to process this my way.
I want to be honest and true and not hide what Iām feeling. I deserve that. I want to be as myself as I can be in this moment. Not just for the audience but for myself and my little baby that did itās best.
I know myself and I know I would talk about it on stage because thatās who I am. So instead of a tearful emotional speech trying to explain my energy. This feels safer.
I decided to have a baby on my own. Because itās all Iāve ever wanted and life is short. To get pregnant was a miracle in itself and an experience I will never forget and I know I will have again.
Im still in shock, the sadness is overwhelming.
But I know I am strong, and I know I will be ok.I also know millions of women all over the world have felt this pain and way worse. I feel connected to those of you I know and those of you I donāt. š«
Itās the loneliest feeling in the world.
So I will see you tonight LA.
I may crack less jokes but my heart will be in the room.
The āBang Bangā songstress said that she intends to perform for her fans later tonight despite the tragedy that has struck her. She noted that she knows āsinging tonight will help me.ā
