She has definitely toned down the tan looking at her recent Instagram post.

 

I’m hoping she’s done a period of self reflection and can apologise and maybe start to build bridges.

 

I really hope so too.

 

She mentioned to the fan below today that she won’t be having her hair in tight curls or anything like that anymore like she had in the BOYZ music video and that she doesn’t want anymore drama. She said to him she was in a bad place around the release and the amount of hate comments she was receiving. The user didn’t share those parts of the conversation but Jesy regularly messages them and she comments/likes their posts. It seems like so far she is learning from it and trying to make a change.

 

In music news she said she has a big ballad she cannot wait to get out.

I just came to say pretty much the same thing - I think to get her back into the good of the public eye, at least somewhat, she needs to do a tell all interview and acknowledge what she did was wrong. I kind of get the impression she wasn't in a good place when 'Boyz' was released, I'm not excusing her behaviour at all at that point, I was her biggest critic, but she most likely had a lot of heavily influential people in her ear just to make some money.

 

I agree with all of this, hopefully she continues to try and tone things down. I think she’s definitely still going to be going down the R&B and hip hop route but hopefully after all of this she’ll be a lot more mindful and wary of what she posts/puts out there.

 

She’s definitely going to have a massive uphill battle after everything and the fact she is independent. But like what was said, the public does look a redemption arc. I think it’ll be extremely hard though and I don’t see it just yet.

 

I just want her to continue to tone things down, acknowledge what was wrong and hopefully build some bridges.

 

I think she is a good person but things severely f***ed up and I think she knows that now.

Well, hopefully this is an early sign that she's slowly changing. Even though it doesn't seem like an apology for previous behaviour is forthcoming. She's seemingly still putting the onus on other people for what she interprets as being hate, rather than seeing that they may have a point (when it comes to blackfishing). Like "I won't have my hair in tight curls because I don't want drama" shows that this decision appears to have been made just for an easier life, rather than properly understanding why said hairstyle is seen as inappropriate. Anyway, I'd say it's never too late to make better decisions, however they arise.

 

Obviously we've said this time and time again but I know Jesy has had an extremely rough time over years when it comes to her appearance and that it had a profoundly bad effect on her mental health. I'm sure many of us fully realise that her appearance modifications (big lips, big hair, tan) is a kind of armour for her, which she possibly believed is what was wanted and expected from her, and what she feels makes her feel and appear beautiful. Unfortunately when she achieved this standard of beauty she was striving for, she could only interpret further criticism about it as being the same kind of hate - and I do understand that kneejerk reaction from her, after what she's been through but that doesn't excuse her from accountability. It was a completely unfortunate situation that her reaction was to double down on it, with a darker tan, increasingly "black culture" appropriative stylings.

 

The "funny" thing is that from her Halloween post is that she's noticably whiter in facial appearance, and I truly hope that wasn't just for the costume. It would be kind of absurd if a white woman only decides to use her own skin tone for a costume, without realising that her exaggeratedly darker tan she usually wears is in fact more of a costume, an offensive costume.

 

I don't think there's a problem with her making R&B music but it needs to come from a more genuine place. Boyz was her trying to be something she really isn't.

Sorry Jay when I mentioned her not doing tight curls and drama, she didn’t say she’s not going to do them because of the drama. I probably wasn’t clear, she said she won’t be doing tight curls anymore as she didn’t realise how it came across. The part about drama was just in general that she didn’t want any drama/issues with anyone, sorry if I didn’t make it clear in my original post!

 

Her hairstylist, Chris also said a few months ago that Jesy won’t be having those right curls anymore as she is more conscious of why people may not be happy with it.

 

She seems to be rocking her natural loose curls on her stories lately.

Nice too see her embrace her natural curls lately, I remember on Odd One Out how Chris said she used to hide it as she was insecure about it. She’s also been posting a lot more on her stories with no make-up (not saying this story) another insecurity, we love baby steps.

She does not realise how beautiful she is. Jesy without makeup and with her natural hair is hawt!

Jesy got a tattoo for her fans, the fans came up with the idea and a few wrote a letter each to contribute.

 

I think it is very sweet.

 

 

"I wanted to get this tattoo to show my fans how much they mean to me. They have supported me through everything and always stood by me, I honestly wouldn’t be where I am today without them! I love you all so much. Thank you for creating this beautiful tattoo for me""

Is that your fan account Slayer/do you run it?

 

Jesydailyupdates? Definitely not me!

 

But I do speak to Jesy through DMs on instagram quite regularly having actual conversations, especially the past month or so. Not about music, just general things and speaking to her about mental health and honestly it was really nice to hear her words of encouragement.

Jesy posted a video of her home recording studio, it makes me happy/sad (in a bittersweet way) to see her and the other girls plastered all over the walls.

 

I wasn't sure if she'd put LM stuff up in there so it is nice to see she's embracing it. It must be weird seeing their faces everyday in her studio and them not talking, hopefully it'll push her to make amends one day.

There have been rumours ITV wanted her for 'Dancing On Ice', however Jesy's team have confirmed to DailyMail that she has not been contacted about it.

These pics are a reminder that I would HATE being famous.

 

(who is Zion? He’s hot)

He’s her boyfriend, they’ve been together for about a year. He’s a singer too, he seems like a nice guy and all about positivity.

 

He doesn’t drink, Jesy says she doesn’t now either.

Dresses Jesy recently designed.

 

 

The post was liked by Little Mix’s stylist Jamie.

 

Su has worked with Jesy/LM for years but recently revealed how jesy designs her outfit ideas and Su makes them.

 

She definitely knows what works for her and they look really good.
