“Jessie J Finally Breaks Her Silence on Feud With Mel B — Reveals the One Brief Meeting That Sparked Years of Shade and Why She Refuses to Fire Back”
Jessie J has broken her silence at last on her long-rumored feud with Mel B, years after the Spice Girl stunned fans by publicly calling her a “d—head” during a 2022 television appearance.
Speaking candidly on KISS FM’s Say It Or Shot It on September 10, the “Price Tag” singer revealed that the insult still baffles her — largely because she and Mel B have barely crossed paths. In fact, Jessie J says they’ve only met once, and that encounter was fleeting.
“We met at the Olympics, and I was too starstruck to say anything,” Jessie explained. “That’s literally the only time. So when I heard her say that years later, it was a shock.”
The unexpected shade left Jessie wondering what had prompted it. For a while, she even considered reaching out to Mel B directly to ask why.
“I thought about calling her and saying, ‘What’s that about?’” Jessie admitted. “But then I just thought, you know what, it is what it is.”
Instead of firing back or escalating the feud, Jessie decided to walk away from the negativity — a choice that reflects her growth and resilience, especially after a difficult year marked by major health struggles.
Earlier this month, Jessie J returned to the stage for the first time since undergoing breast cancer surgery. On September 6, she delivered an emotional performance at BBC Radio 2 In the Park — a moment made even more special because it was the first time her young son saw her perform live.
Her dignified handling of Mel B’s remark drew praise from fans online, many of whom applauded Jessie for showing grace under pressure. In an era when celebrity feuds often explode across social media, her choice to “let it go” rather than drag it out set her apart.
For Jessie, the focus now is not on settling old scores but on healing, family, and music. With her health on the mend and her career back in motion, she’s choosing to channel her energy into what matters most — and leaving the drama behind.
“Sometimes silence says more than words ever could,” one fan wrote on social media in response to her interview.
As Jessie J’s story shows, not every feud needs to be fought. Sometimes, the most powerful statement is simply walking away.
