A former pop star is opening up for the first time about the pain she felt over three painful abortions, sharing on social media that Jesus can “heal the pieces” and provide forgiveness.
Kaya Jones, 38, appeared on Students for Life of America’s “Speak Out with Christine Yeargin” podcast last week. The former Pussycat Doll opened up about her experience of being in the group and the painful cost of stardom, explaining to Yeargin that she often felt like she was a prostitution ring instead of a girl band.
“It feels like you are a slave to your dream, literally, and the powers that be are holding the keys to the kingdom. You have no access to personal thoughts, space, choices, decisions,” she explained. “You are an owned commodity…the level of control is like, ‘Who am I?'”
She added, “You are put into these positions that are very unscrupulous for any young woman.”
Her popular girl group sold more than 15 million albums and 40 million singles, but Jones sums up her experience as simply “selling a lie.”
“When you are doing things that are really incorrect and your body is up for grabs, this is where we have to take a hard look at ourselves and for me, I had to take a hard look at myself when I had two young fans in the audience looking at me,” she explained.
“When you see these two little faces and at that moment, I was going through an abortion. I’m losing my child in real-time…these two little girls are looking at me going ‘wow mom, she’s a Pussycat Doll’,” Jones recalled.
“Nothing in that moment was saying ‘caution, this is a lie’. Nothing was saying that and I was a lie in that moment,” she added. “I was tainted, I was destructive, I was destroyed, I was completely enchained and in bondage to the devil…I was not living in my purpose.”
Despite the false image of happiness she portrayed and the abuse and control she endured, Jones recalls some of her most painful moments lay at the abortion table.
