Jade Thirlwall has announced her first U.S. headline performance. Fans are buzzing with anticipation. The former Little Mix member, now known as JADE, will take the stage in Brooklyn in February 2026.

This announcement comes during her album release party in New York City. Notably, JADE led the crowd in a chant against transphobia and censorship at the event. That moment went viral as well. Speaking about the upcoming U.S. headline show, she told the crowd:

"I want to go home. If I can, you have to publish it. I can't even say it, it's a good thing. Well that's good news because I may be coming here next year. I am going to be here too. I'm going to be here too. But I will see you guys here. It's been a f**king long time for me."

Fans reacted, saying:

"Big moves for JADE! 🙌 Brooklyn is the perfect spot to kick off her first U.S. headline show — this is going to be special 🔥"

"The real controversy here is whether JADE can truly break through in the U.S. after building momentum overseas. Fans and critics will debate if her sound and persona are ready for this kind of spotlight or if it’s too soon.
