Singer Jessie J has revealed that she almost lost her ability to walk when she broke her ankle in 2011.
The 25-year-old 'It's My Party' singer was on wheelchair after she fell from the stage during rehearsals for a performance, reported Contactmusic.
"That accident almost cost me the ability to walk. I've had a bone transplant, a fusion, a metal plate and four bolts put into my foot," Jessie said.
"I have a physiotherapist who travels around with me a lot of the time and it still causes me pain every day. I often have to have my foot popped back in as it pops off the bone. Plus it's pretty rare that I can wear high heels these days, " she added.
The singer had to cancel some concerts when she injured her foot, but later managed to perform at some festivals with a medical boot.
