Pop star Jessie J has compared her recent cancer surgery to an episode of Black Mirror admitting she hates being "put under" with a general anaesthetic.
Jessie J has compared cancer surgery to an episode of Black Mirror.
The 37-year-old pop star - real name Jessica Cornish - revealed in June that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and she subsequently underwent a mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Now the singer has opened up about going under the knife admitting she hates being "put under" with a general anaesthetic because it feels life she's in an episode of the hit Netflix sci-fi show.
Jessie told the Guardian newspaper: "I hate being put under. They walk you down. You know when you have emergency surgery you roll down in a bed, but this time I just strolled down with a gown on and my bum hanging out. You feel like you’re in an episode of Black Mirror ...
"Cancer sucks, man, but you know what? Thank f*** I found it early. I had the mastectomy four months ago and my right breast now looks like a grapefruit under a tight bedsheet ...
"[They are now] different sizes. They didn’t do an implant as small as my original. How rude! I thought, no need to bully me, I’m already having a rough time.
"So rude! It’s funny because I said I’d never get my boobs done because I’ve got OCD, and I know they’d never be perfect. Cancer ruined that plan."
