Born Jade Amelia Thirlwall on December 26, 1992, in South Shields, England, JADE is a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter who first lit up the stage as part of Little Mix. Formed on The X Factor UK in 2011, the group became the first to win the show, dropping six albums and five UK number-one singles like “Wings” and “Shout Out to My Ex.” After Little Mix’s hiatus in 2022, JADE stepped into her solo era, signing with RCA Records and releasing her debut single “Angel of My Dreams” in 2024, which hit number seven on the UK Singles Chart. Known for her bold pop sound and heartfelt lyrics, she’s also a fierce advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and racial equality, earning the Gay Times Honour for Allyship in 2021 and 2025. With a songwriting credit on over 50 Little Mix tracks and a growing solo presence on Spotify and Apple Music, JADE’s journey from a small-town dreamer to a global pop star, backed by 1.5 million Instagram followers, is all about resilience and realness.
