Leigh-Anne Pinnock looked amazing in a vibrant green bikini while on a girls’ trip to Malta, following her performance at the Hoopla festival.
I saw the singer, who’s 33, just chilling with her friends after her amazing performance at the event. It was so nice to see her really relax and enjoy some sunshine on the beach. She deserved it!
In a post on Instagram, Leigh-Anne relaxed on a boat, sporting a snake print bikini.
She was also seen partying with her pals on the island and catching up with Spice Girl Mel C.
Leigh-Anne captioned the update: ‘What a PERFECT way to end my festival run!
Hoopla Malta, you were amazing – you gave me everything I could have asked for and then some! I promise to always give you a fantastic show, darling!
She also said: ‘I’m so thankful for my wonderful dancers and band – you are all amazing! P.S.…we’ll be performing for you again before long.’
This follows Leigh-Anne’s recent statement that the intense pressure and high expectations of being in a popular girl group prevented her from fully appreciating her career as a solo performer.
The singer, formerly of Little Mix, began her career as a solo artist in 2022 and shared that she first struggled with feeling overwhelmed by unrealistic expectations.
After becoming a member of the group on X-Factor, the singer-who previously worked as a waitress at Pizza Hut-achieved significant success with the band, releasing 19 songs that reached the top ten and five that hit number one.
She told Capital XTRA Breakfast: ‘The pressure is what stopped me enjoying it as much.
It’s understandably difficult to immediately match the success of a large, established group, especially with the expectation to perform at the same level. It simply can’t happen overnight.
‘That took 10 years. It takes work. And also, I’m not doing music like the group did.
I took a different approach, and I believe those expectations really held me back. It just became unenjoyable – it felt like, “This isn’t fun at all!”
The singer explained that she wanted to create music as a solo performer without the same intense pressure she experienced when she was in a girl group. She desired more creative freedom and less expectation than she felt previously. Being a solo artist allowed her to explore this.
In 2022, Leigh-Anne began her solo career with Warner, and in 2023 she put out her EP, No Hard Feelings.
However, her work as a solo artist didn’t gain much traction after Warner reportedly ‘wouldn’t pay for a music video’ for her final single, following reports that her other songs ‘failed to impress’ listeners.
Over a year after taking time off, Leigh-Anne announced she’ll be releasing new music this summer. In a TikTok video posted in June, the singer shared that the beginning of the year was ‘a weird one’.
She explained to her followers: ‘It was a complicated situation. I wasn’t able to share details or clarify what was going on.’
Well, I definitely moved on from my previous record label, and now I’m working with Virgin. I’m still completely independent, but to be honest, it’s been a fantastic experience for me. I really think this was something that needed to happen, honestly.
How long have I been working in this field? I believe it’s important to approach things according to my own principles – if I can’t do it my way, there’s really no point. Everything is looking up now, and I’m feeling really excited and really good about things. It just makes sense.
