UPDATE: Jessie J has just released a powerful new song titled “Threw It Away,” where she seemingly calls out her ex, Channing Tatum, referring to him as a “beast.” The track, part of her upcoming album Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time, was previewed on November 25, 2023, and the lyrics hint at themes of heartbreak and karma.
In a sneak peek shared by The Sun, Jessie sings, “I put my heart out on the table / That’s when it got uncomfortable / But oh that karma is gonna come one day / ’Cause I gave you my love and you threw it away.” Later, she asserts, “Don’t you dare rewrite the story. I’m the beauty, you’re the beast.” This emotional revelation follows her on-and-off relationship with Tatum, which lasted from 2018 until their final breakup in 2020.
Jessie, 37, confirmed in a recent interview that she co-wrote this song with Ryan Tedder in 2020, a time when she was romantically linked with Tatum, who is now 45. The couple first sparked romance rumors six months after Tatum’s split from his ex-wife, Jenna Dewan. Their relationship included public appearances and a brief reconciliation, but ultimately ended for good in April 2020.
Following their breakup, Tatum moved on with actress Zoë Kravitz, who he dated from 2021 until they became engaged in 2023 but split again before the end of 2024. Meanwhile, Jessie has been in a relationship with basketball player Chanan Colman since 2021, and the couple welcomed their son, Sky, in 2023 after Jessie experienced a miscarriage two years prior.
In addition to her personal life, Jessie has been open about her health struggles, announcing earlier this year that she had undergone breast cancer surgery. In an emotional Instagram video shared in August, Jessie revealed, “So, as some of you may know, I just had breast cancer surgery eight weeks ago.” She later mentioned needing a second surgery, which forced her to postpone her tour until next year. “I’m living in the moment. I’m embracing the moment, and I’m flowing with the vibes,” she said, expressing her frustration and sadness.
As fans eagerly await the full release of “Threw It Away,” Jessie’s poignant lyrics are resonating with many, showcasing her strength and vulnerability as she navigates both personal and health challenges.
Stay tuned for more updates on Jessie J’s music and health journey as she continues to inspire through her artistry.
