Jessie J slams ‘beast’ Hollywood star ex Channing Tatum in savage new track

The British singer took a very thinly-veiled swipe at her famous ex, Channing Tatum, as she promoted her new album.

Jessie J has taken a leaf out of Jennifer Lopez’s book and taken aim at her Hollywood ex on her new music.

Earlier this year, J-Lo slammed Ben Affleck on the track Wreckage of You after her marriage to the actor broke down, reports The Sun.

Now Jessie has let rip at Channing Tatum, who she dated from 2018 to 2020, on her album Don’t Tease Me With A Good Time, which is out on Friday.

On the not-so-subtle track Threw It Away, Jessie brands a former flame a “beast”.

She 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.”

She later adds: “Don’t you dare rewrite the story/I’m the beauty, you’re the beast.”

‘I’m a better person’

Taking to the stage at an exclusive listening party for the album in west London, Jessie did not mention the Magic Mike star by name.

But she left little doubt among fans who the track is about.

She said: “This next song I wrote in 2020 with Ryan Tedder, and you can figure out who I was dating”.

After taking time out over the summer to undergo treatment for breast cancer, Jessie is working at a full pace.

Opening up about her health battle, Jessie said: “I’m grateful for the lessons and grateful for the connectivity it’s given me with so many people having cancer”.

“And I’ve been a better parent, I’ve been a better person.”
