Little Mix’s Jesy Nelson shares her struggles with mental health in new 主播大秀 documentary
Jesy Nelson, a member of the world’s biggest girl band Little Mix, will explore body image and mental health in a brand new documentary for the 主播大秀.
I’m delighted to be working with the 主播大秀 on a documentary that will both challenge me personally and also highlight a hugely important issue affecting young people today
Jesy Nelson: My Story (w/t) will look at how growing up in a social media-fuelled age of selfies, body shaming and trolling is having a profound impact on the mental health of young people.
Having lived in the spotlight and under the intense scrutiny of the media for the past seven years, Jesy will bring this unique insight and passion to the documentary, as she shares her very personal experiences and talks to young people who have been affected.
