Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall looked almost unrecognisable as she filmed her first music video since embarking on a solo career.
The singer, 31, swapped her signature brunette locks for a towering blonde wig as she was pictured in London on set.
She matched the outrageous wig with a similarly eye-catching outfit as she donned a flowing electric blue fur coat and fake nails so long she almost couldn’t hold her bottled water.
Jade completed the bold outfit with thick-rimmed black sunglasses, black heeled shoes, and dark-lined lips.
She was accompanied by her boyfriend, Rizzle Kicks star Jordan Stephens, while filming for her first single as a solo artist away from Little Mix bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards.
It has been revealed the singer will release her own debut album this summer, with Jade rumoured to be working on a collaboration with Grammy-winning artist Tyla.

‘Jade has taken her time with her new music because it’s important that her solo record stands out in a crowded marketplace,’ a source told The Mirror.
‘Her record label also wanted to avoid clashes with her bandmates’ releases and they agreed between them that Jade will release next.
‘She has been in private talks with several Little Mix fan groups and has taken their ideas on board and is producing music that pushes the envelope.’
The insider continued: ‘She is also angling for a duet with 22-year-old Tyla, who has a huge social media following. They are both signed to Sony and their respective A&Rs are trying to make it happen.’
It comes after Perrie, 30, finally released her debut single Forget About us after sharing a teasy 30 second clip.
She is set to release a full solo album but has yet to reveal its title or its release date.

Leigh-Anne is also set to release her debut album following the release of singles Don’t Say Love, My Love, and Stealin’ Love.
She previously hinted that the album – which also does not yet have a title or firm release date – will be coming this year.
Little Mix went on indefinite hiatus in 2021 following the departure of Jesy Nelson in 2020.
Many fans have wondered whether the X-Factor-formed band will return in the future, with Leigh-Anne sharing some positive news for fans.
‘We will definitely do a reunion. How can we not?’ she revealed.
She added on the Happy Place podcast: ‘Let’s enjoy this time now but in five years’ time we’ll get back together, make a load of money.’
