Jade Thirwall, the lead singer of Little Mix, made a dramatic entrance at the BRIT Awards 2025 tonight (Saturday, March 1) with the ‘Simon Cowell’ figure from her first solo music video.
After being accused of being slating the music mogul after her appearance on the 2011 X Factor, the performer, who now goes by JADE, earned fans’ suspicions with her first solo album.
Some fans claimed that the lyrics to the song, Angel of My Dreams, referenced Simon selling her “soul to a psycho” and that it was referring to SyCo, Simon’s now-defunct record label. The video also features the lines “Got you a car, got you a house, got you a suit, it’s Gucci/If I don’t win, I’m in the bin,” which sparked much rumors about the actor’s real-life identity. It also features Jade, who is performing at this year’s Awards, marrying a large male figure.
Jade, 32, was standing next to the larger-than-life figure at this year’s glittering BRITS, wearing a white head to toe ensemble and a bouquet of flowers in her hand. The Newcastle-born actress has won two awards, including Song of the Year for Angel of My Dreams, which she released in July of last year and is based on a piece of Sandie Shaw’s Puppet on a String, and Pop Act, which Capital promoted and is nominated for.
Jade explained that she had taken inspiration from her early years of fame as a member of Little Mix when she described the song’s release and how it wasn’t “as glam as it seems.” You may think you’re a puppet at the beginning of your career, but that’s not the case because we wrote a lot of our songs and contributed a lot to what we sold. That was a statement that I disliked. So it seemed only natural to demonstrate that it can be both true and false at once.
Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, and Jesy Nelson were joined by Jade in Little Mix in 2011. The remaining three announced they were taking a 10-year hiatus to pursue solo projects in 2021, one year after Jesy left the group.
Jade refuted the claims, saying that the connection was not “specifically” about that. However, I wanted the song to be my journey from when I first started making music and how it felt. The song has a very chaotic feel to it. After you’ve won and you’ve been thrust into the industry, the opening is like that montage from The X Factor.
