Little Mix Star Jade Thirlwall Hints at Band Reunion During Solo Debut

Jade Thirlwall, formerly of Little Mix, hinted at a band reunion during her first solo performance at BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend in Liverpool by altering the lyrics of their 2018 hit "Wasabi" to say the group is on "hiatus" rather than broken up. She performed a medley of Little Mix's greatest hits and expressed deep gratitude toward her former bandmates, crediting the group for her success and acknowledging that she "wouldn't be here" without them. The band, which rose to fame on The X Factor in 2011, went on an indefinite break in 2022 following Jesy Nelson's departure in 2020. Jade's solo debut album, "That's Showbiz Baby!", is set to release in September. During her set, Jade also debuted unreleased solo material and covered Madonna's "Frozen." The remaining members have previously spoken about the emotional impact of Jesy's exit and the group's hiatus, emphasizing that the break has not been a permanent split.
