The recent reactions also resurfaced concerns from previous months. In November 2025, Jackson shared videos from a doctor’s office, explaining to her followers she was undergoing additional tests.
“Hi guys, I hope everyone’s doing well,” the Grammy Award-winning songwriter said in her video. “I’m here at the doctor again, so I’m hoping that everything goes well with me, and all results are good.”
A few days later, she posted another update, adding, “Guess where I am on this Monday morning? You guessed it, that place again. I'm constantly getting check-ups. Oh well. Have a great week, guys.”
While she never disclosed the reason behind the visits, the singer has also spoken about her diet in the past.
She told Daily Mail, “I'm strictly organic. I make sure that everything I eat is organic, and my diet is basically based on plants.”
“So it's a cruciferous diet basically, and that's what I stick to because this is what God put on the earth for us.”
Beyond Jackson, several celebrities have faced similar scrutiny over their thinner or more frail looks.
As reported by Bored Panda, Kelly Osbourne received widespread comments about her noticeably thinner frame, while Sharon Osbourne and Ariana Grande have also faced speculation about dramatic weight loss.
"She's getting so small," wrote one netizen
