Jessie J asks her fans for help getting up due to a miscarriage

Singer Jessie J has suffered a miscarriage but told fans she will still perform a day after finding out the news. In an emotional Instagram post, she shared a picture of a positive pregnancy test and a quote from poet Seyda Noir, and tagged her location as "heartbroken". In the lengthy caption, she wrote: "Yesterday morning I was laughing with a friend saying 'seriously though how am I going to get through my gig in LA tomorrow night without telling the whole audience I am pregnant'. "By yesterday afternoon I was dreading the thought of getting through the gig without breaking down. She said she had gone for her third scan, only to be told there was no heartbeat. The Bang Bang singer said: "I decided to have a baby on my own. "Because it's all I've ever wanted and life is short. To get pregnant was a miracle in itself and an experience I will never forget and I know I will have again." Jessie has previously opened up about her fertility struggles and revealed during a 2018 concert doctors had told her at the age of 26 she might never be able to have children. However, she confirmed she would still perform her LA show, and said her "soul needs it". She wrote: "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 its best. She added: "I know myself and I know I would talk about it on stage because that's who I am. So instead of a tearful emotional speech trying to explain my energy. This feels safer. "I'm still in shock, the sadness is overwhelming. But I know I am strong, and I know I will be ok. "I also know millions of women all over the world have felt this pain and way worse. I feel connected to those of you I know and those of you I don't.

Everything You Need to Know About Adele’s New Album, 30.

It's time to emotionally prepare for the return of Adele. After weeks of hinting to fans across the globe by way of cryptic projections of the number 30, Adele has confirmed that new music is just around the corner. The 15-time Grammy winner released her first single off her fourth studio album Thursday. With "Easy on Me," fans have waited with bated breath to hear the star's first song in more than six years. Below, we answer all your questions about the superstar's new musical era.

What is the album about?

During an Instagram Live session with her fans, Adele was asked about the subject matter of her upcoming project. She promptly replied, "Divorce babe, divorce." You might remember that the singer finalized her divorce from her ex-husband, Simon Konecki, back in January.

When is 30 releasing?

With a moving message about how meaningful the project has become to her, the singer confirmed on social media that her fourth studio album will release on November 19.

Are there any collaborations on the album?

Maintaining consistency with her past projects, Adele's new album features no collaborators, the singer has confirmed.

A television special and interview with Oprah Winfrey are also happening.

According to Variety

The "Easy on Me" music video officially premiered on YouTube.

The "Easy on Me" music video officially premiered on YouTube in tandem with the single's drop at 7 p.m. ET on October 14—and it's just as tear-jerking and moving as we imagined.

Featuring vintage-inspired cinematography, the video shows Adele singing about forgiveness over her innocent past mistakes as she reflects back on a failed relationship. The mood is somber and nostalgic, and all too cathartic.

Watch the video in full below.

, a televised special titled Adele One Night Only will air on CBS five days ahead of the release of her new album, 30.

Set for Sunday, November 14, at 8:30 p.m. ET, the special will be filmed in Los Angeles, with the singer performing new songs from her upcoming project, as well as some of her greatest hits.

Adele will also sit down with media icon Oprah Winfrey "from her rose garden," where the singer will discuss "her new album, the stories behind the songs, life after divorce, weight loss and raising her son."
