Jessie J Bravely Carries Out Performance Hours After Revealing She Suffered A Miscarriage

Jessie J has bravely continued with a performance just hours after telling the world she suffered a miscarriage.

The British singer was super excited to play at The Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles, however was overwhelmed with sadness and loneliness when a doctor failed to find a heartbeat during a scan earlier this week.

Despite being heartbroken by the news, she vowed to perform for her fans because she said it would help her healing process.

She powered through her hits like 'Price Tag', 'Big White Room' and 'Bang Bang' during the intimate gig.

But in between songs she opened up about the pain she was going through.

"I was told a long time ago that I couldn't have children and I never believed it. I don't believe in lies," she said to the crowd.

"I decided to have a baby by myself. And then by a miracle it worked for a little while. And yesterday, yeah, yesterday was f**king s**t.

"I wanted to be here tonight because the one thing I believe in the most in this whole entire universe, beyond surface conversations and Instagram and the internet, is being human and being vulnerable and being real."

Jessie J explained how she recently lost her voice and she was terrified that she didn't know who she was without her incredible pipes.

"And then I lost my baby," she added. "I know I'm going to be okay because there is really nothing else to choose in the way I live."

Despite saying she never felt more alone in the past week, she felt incredibly loved by everyone who was at The Hotel Cafe to see her perform.

The singer broke the miscarriage news on Instagram, where she revealed how she was determined to raise her baby by herself after her recent split from her boyfriend.

While many would have completely understood her reasons for cancelling the gig, she vowed to carry on.

"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,' she said.

"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 hasn't ever changed and I have to process this my way.

"I want to be honest and true and not hide what I'm 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 it's best."
