Montell Jordan Says His Cancer Has Returned After Having Prostate Removed
Montell Jordan, diagnosed early through screening, will undergo proton therapy and hormone blockers after his prostate cancer returned and advanced to Stage 2, highlighting risks for African American men.
- On September 3, Montell Jordan revealed his prostate cancer has returned during an appearance on the 3rd Hour of TODAY; the 56-year-old singer disclosed the news to viewers.
- After a routine PSA test in early 2024, doctors diagnosed Montell Jordan with Stage 1 prostate cancer and performed a prostatectomy, which he initially recovered from well.
- At his nine-month follow-up this summer, doctors found tiny amounts of cancer in left-side lymph nodes and the prostate bed, upgrading Jordan's diagnosis to Stage 2 prostate cancer.
- Jordan will begin proton radiation therapy five days a week for seven weeks and take hormone blockers to inhibit testosterone production, describing it as a temporary but necessary interruption to preserve life.
- Jordan has teamed up with the nonprofit ZERO Prostate Cancer and is documenting his journey in the film Sustain, premiering next year, urging Black men to get screened per American Cancer Society guidance for ages 40 to 45.
