Jessie J's breast cancer diagnosis has made her realise that "life is too short"

Jessie - who has son Sky, two, with her partner Chanan Colman - said in a video posted to Instagram on Saturday (16.08.25): "I want to write books. Do a kids album. Get all my tattoos taken off. Take my family on holiday.

"I want to learn to ride a bike. I'd like to learn another language... but I know that's not going to happen.

"I want to see if I can sort out some medication or some cognitive therapy or something for my ADHD and OCD."

The 37-year-old star added: "When you go through something like cancer people are like 'you've changed'.

"But I think I always had those thoughts, cancer just makes us actually act on them because you're like, 'life is short, I want to do it now.' I've always wanted to do that so I'm going to do it."

Jessie revealed recently that she has a "one in two chance" of her cancer returning, even though doctors managed to remove all of the abnormal cells.

She told The Sunday Times newspaper: "People think, once you've got the all-clear, now it's done. But I've got another surgery [to improve the symmetry of her implant with her other breast] and I need to heal, so I have to figure out the rest of this year ... There's a one in two chance [of the cancer returning]."

Jessie also recalled how she broke down in tears as she looked at her scars in a tender moment with her mother.

The Domino hitmaker said: "The other night, Mum was massaging my boob for me, because I can't touch the scars.

"And I started sobbing: 'I can't believe this has happened.' She was like: 'I wish it was me,' and then I'm crying, she's crying ... I'm so glad it's not her."

Meanwhile, the star revealed that she is planning to release new music even as she recovers from surgery.

In a post on social media, Jessie explained: "I am 7 weeks post breast cancer surgery. I'm still in the thick of recovery and my body is still finding its way.

"But I LOVE music and I LOVE my life and I want to LIVE in the moment.

"Instead of stopping and disappearing and waiting for the timing to be perfect to release music again. I am choosing to carry on.

"Life is layered and has highs and lows and we just have to keep living through all of it, the best we can.

"So here I am. LIVING ... And I just want you to have the music ... Deal? (sic)"
