Jessie J reflected on her recent breast cancer battle whilst she received the prestigious trophy at the Silver Clef Awards. In May 2026, Jessica announced that she was cancer-free.
During an interview with The Mirror, “I think I won all my awards in 2010 in the space of three months. It’s been a while since I’ve given a speech, so bear with me”. She further said, “The last 18 months have been the most incredible, the most magical years of my life, and also the hardest. I believe that we find the truest parts of ourselves in hard times. So when you’re faced with them, it’s life trying to teach you something.”
She also mentioned in her interview, “And to become a mum after not thinking I would, having one t*t just get chopped off out of nowhere – you never know when your t*t is going to be taken from you, so enjoy your t*ts”.
In the end, she added, “I just love life, I love music, I love telling stories, and it feels good to be celebrating what I love to do. So thank you so much”.
The 38-year-old singer, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2025, took home the award for Outstanding Achievement in Music on July 9.
