Singer Jessie J is going to have a metal plate removed from her left foot in December.
The 'Price Tag' hitmaker is in agony from an injury she sustained two years ago when she fell off the stage while rehearsing for a performance at London's Wembley Stadium, reported Contactmusic.
"I'm getting some time off at Christmas and I'm having surgery to have the plate removed. It is flicking against my bone and is causing a lot of pain. I hurt my ankle about two years ago and it's still causing me a lot of discomfort. The foot is still bruised and swells up because it won't heal, so I'm having the metal taken out," she said.
Jessie, 25, previously had to have a bone transplant as part of reconstructive surgery to heal her left ankle, who she broke in 2011, and was forced to wear a cast for two months while she recovered.
