Jessie J has sent fans into a frenzy after dropping a brand-new single and unveiling the stunning official artwork for the track on Friday.
Following the release of her deeply personal and reflective song No Secrets last month, the singer, 37, has returned with Living My Best Life – a vibrant, feel-good anthem bursting with positivity.
Produced by GRAMMY-winning hitmaker Ryan Tedder, the new single is a celebration of joy and self-expression, serving as the perfect yin to No Secrets yang.
The exuberant throwback track came to Jessie while driving through LA, with the best of Whitney Houston and Prince blaring from her Jeep.
Speaking about the song, Jessie said: ‘I love the sense of moving upwards, so Living My Best Life has that same feeling. It feels timeless, classic, 80s. It makes you want to dance.’
In the newly released artwork, Jessie stuns in nothing but a brown blazer and oversized tortoiseshell sunglᴀsses.

This sold-out performance will give fans their first chance to hear her new material live, alongside a selection of fan favourites.

Despite not releasing new music in 2023, Jessie reportedly earned a staggering £7.6 million – equivalent to nearly £28,000 per day – following her decision to cut ties with record label Republic and manage her own career.
In September 2023, she announced her departure from Republic after 17 years, sharing the news in a heartfelt Instagram video.
Dressed casually in a hoodie and baseball cap, she told fans: ‘My lawyer said that I need to make a statement about the decision that I have made. I don’t want it to feel like a huge, big thing.’
She continued: ‘After 17 years, I have decided to leave Republic Records. I was about six months pregnant when I made this decision.
‘Monte and Avery Lipman, and Jason Flomm have been so gracious and kind in supporting my decision and letting me go. It’s been the most amazing high and low ride of my life.
‘I just feel so grateful to have been signed to the best record label in the world. I have to just be honest with who I am and what I want from my career now.
‘There’s no negative spin, it’s not dramatic. I just didn’t feel right being signed, and it hasn’t for years. So, I need to stop just trusting my instincts and ask for them… so now I am unemployed.
‘I am now in the process of doing all the legalities and sorting out the music so I can put out new music and do it my way. On my time and my terms.
‘Now I have had a baby, there is just no stopping me. Something happens when you have a baby and just start giving zero f**ks. But there is nothing but good vibes.

Captioning the post, she added: ‘Not me looking like Johnny Depp from Charlie and the chocolate factory for my big statement.
‘Thank you Monte and Avery Lipman, Jason Flomm, and everyone who I’ve worked with at Republic for the past 17 years. What a rollercoaster. Mic drop.’
