Jessie’s life update last week got her in a bit of a tight spot when fans misconstrued her statement for a recovery announcement. As reported by The Blast, the singer responded to the circulating reports, clarifying that her cancer was not all gone.
Instead, Jessie emphasized that she only implied a positive ending to her story with cancer with the tone of her post. She stated that no official report had been provided regarding her surgery.
Jessie took responsibility for sending mixed messages with her post, writing: “I added the [fingers-crossed emoji] in thinking people would understand, and clearly a lot didn’t. A weird situation. My fault for not being clearer.”
