Jessie J says she will still be performing at Glastonbury despite finding out she has a broken foot.

The 23-year-old singer, due to perform at 3pm on the Other Stage on Saturday afternoon, went to hospital after continuing pain following a fall.

She was originally diagnosed with a ripped ligament in her left foot two weeks ago after falling from a platform on stage during rehearsals for a show.

The Essex singer revealed the news about her foot on Twitter.

She said: "I am back in the UK. I didn't tweet all day yesterday as I was at the hospital having scans on my foot! To get a specific diagnosis.

"Turns out I've been hobbling around with a broken foot. So will be in a hench grey darfaydar looking boot and on crutches for 6 weeks (cool lol)."

Jessie J is playing a number of summer festivals in the UK including iTunes, T4 on the Beach and V before starting her own headline tour in October.

She's then the main support act on Katy Perry's California Dreams US tour taking place between 15-22 November.

The singer went to number one earlier this year with her single Price Tag featuring American rapper B.o.B and also topped the 91Èȱ¬'s Sound of 2011.
