JESY Nelson has revealed she almost got a boob job after a doctor told her she “needed” it.
The former Little Mix star opened up about how she deliberated over going under the knife while battling with her self-esteem.
She candidly spoke about her experiences after former Love Island star Anna Vakili and her sister Mandi posted a video in which they said they regretted ever having cosmetic surgery.
Sharing the video on Instagram, Jesy, 33, wrote: “I absolutely adore these two for being so real about this s***.
“I was actually going to get a boob job two years ago because a doctor once told me I needed it.
“I was in a very insecure stage of my life and just wanted to feel loved.
“But I didn’t really know that about myself until I did real work on my inner self that I realised no boob job would fix that.”
The Boyz singer, who is currently on a hiatus from music, went on to say that she is relieved she didn’t go ahead with the procedure.
And it sounds like she is in a much better place than she was at the time.
She continued: “Anyway what I’m trying to say is I’m so, so thankful I never got them done because I know I would have regretted it.
“I’m not against anyone having things done if it genuinely is going to make you happy and feel better because everybody needs to live their life how they want to.
“But please, please, like these two are saying, really think about it because these things can’t be reversed and could cause you to feel worse about yourself.
“We are all born different for a reason and that’s f***ing beautiful.”
Jesy quit Little Mix in 2020 and was the first member of the group to go solo.
Earlier this week, her former bandmate Perrie Edwards opened up about the breakdown of their friendship, after it was revealed they no longer talk.
Perrie, 31, told Fearne Cotton on her Happy Place podcast: “I wrote a song about a friendship I had that I no longer have.
“When you’ve been in that person’s life for years and they’ve had your back, you’ve been through highs, lows and everything, all these experiences, it’s a wild ride but you’ve gone through it together – then poof they’re gone – that’s hard to deal with.
“I struggled a lot with that. It’s really sad, but at the same time these things sometimes happen.
“It does make you think ‘do we try to rectify the situation? Should I reach out? It doesn’t feel like I should, it feels like I should just stay away.’
“It’s a really horrible dynamic to be in.”
HOLLYWOOD and Broadway big-hitter Hugh Jackman is becoming a rock star.
The Aussie actor has announced a 65,000-capacity gig as a headliner at BST Hyde Park in London next summer.
Accompanied by an orchestra, he will perform songs from musicals including Les Miserables, The Boy From Oz, The Music Man and The Greatest Showman.
Tickets for the July 6 gig go on sale on Wednesday and are sure to sell out.
I’ll keep my fingers crossed he covers blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, too – in or out of his Wolverine costume.
MOST people like to dress up for Halloween, but Kylie Jenner decided to dress down by posing nude – just like Demi Moore in 1996 comedy flick Striptease.
Plenty of celebs vied to outdo each other, with Paris Hilton copying her pal Britney Spears from her Baby One More Time video.
Former tennis champ Andy Murray was probably the most menacing as a miserable clown, while Jade Thirlwall attended a bash in London as Bo Peep from Toy Story.
And with the movie version of Wicked, starring Ariana Grande, out this month, Halloween will be with us for a while yet.
THEY say life can change in the blink of an eye and that couldn’t be more true for rising music star Grace Bridie.
The estate agent went viral after posting a TikTok video of her singing Sinead Hartnett’s Unconditional at her dad’s wedding.
And not long afterwards, she was tapped up by producers at US TV singing contest American Idol.
They flew her out to New York to audition in front of the judges, including Lionel Richie.
Speaking to me from her Brighton home, Grace says: “When I got the message, I thought it was a scam.
“But I eventually replied and from there I auditioned on Zoom and they then flew me out to New York.
“Singing for Lionel was crazy. I think it’s just weird because you kind of walk in and you think they’re like play figures. They don’t look real.”
If you check out Grace’s singing voice on her account @GraceBridieMusic, it’s not hard to see why the show is so taken with her.
“It’s so surreal,” Grace adds. “I know this TV show can change my life.
My boss is really supportive of me and allowed me to chase my dreams.
“I guess if I get an opportunity to make it through to the next stages and go on to have success like (2002 American Idol winner) Kelly Clarkson, that is the goal.”
We’ll have to watch the show when it airs to see how Grace gets on, but I suspect the future will be very bright for her.
