LEIGH-ANNE Pinnock wowed in her first solo gig with high energy dance routines and equally as impressive vocals.
Bizarre watched as she performed to a sold-out crowd at Lafayette in North London two years after Little Mix took their final bow.
She belted out tracks from her EP No Hard Feelings as well as the band’s 2016 hit single Touch.
Keen to tell her story, most, if not all, of the tracks have been inspired by Leigh-Anne’s rocky relationship with now husband, footballer Andre Gray, who watched proudly from the crowd.
But during one spoken word interlude, as she got changed off stage, Leigh-Anne made no secret of the hurt he has caused her behind the scenes.

Leigh-Anne said: “Exciting but dangerous. Six months of bliss and hell. A stolen kiss becoming pure as us together. But how do you say serves me right?
“The images, the thoughts. The phone that once connect-ed us, now a constant reminder. What are you doing? What is going on? Why would you do this to us?”
She added: “All I could see was white from my bed’s mystery eyes. My duvet keeping me warm now. The patterns, the running, the crying? Our forbidden beginning.
“What I know is that I love you. That we are a whole made from two. So I chose to open my heart to forgive. Restart. We are sunshine and summer. Destined to last.
“I’ve seen who you have chosen to become as our two became four completing our circle. You chose us. You chose not to be a replica. You know how to be a dad, and I don’t know how you do.”
Awkward!
After the gig, Leigh-Anne said she felt like she was in a room full of friends.
She said: “I was nervous but when I got on stage it was like being with my friends. I loved it.
“You know what? I did like my own stage.”

Good on her.
Pink flips out over virus
PINK kicked off the UK leg of her summer tour feeling under the weather but honestly, Who Knew?
She was struck down with a pesky stomach bug ahead of the opening night but still took the risk with impressive acrobatics at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
At one point, the So What singer, seen here in a sparkling silver leotard, matching boots and neon pink jacket, belted out 2001 single
Get The Party Started while suspended horizontally above the crowd.
She said on stage: “Wales, I freaking love it here . . . a little food poisoning can’t stop us.
“Thank you guys for coming to play with us. You look amazing.”
I thought she was a professional before, but I am truly in awe of Pink now.
