By Georgia Bates, Press Association

Pop star Lily Allen has teased on social media that she will be collaborating with Jade on a remix of her track Beg For Me.

The Smile singer posted on Instagram that a new version of the song from her tell-all record West End Girl will drop at midnight on Thursday.

Allen, 41, shared a video which appears to shows half of Jade’s face as she sings: “Hey it’s me, just checking in I know there’s a lot going on right now, so how are you feeling?”

Jade, 33, commented with an emoji of a pair of eyes on the post, which she shared to her Instagram story.

The video on Allen’s Instagram includes a zoomed-in picture of the cover of the West End Girl album.

It comes a day after the singer announced on social media that she would be releasing a remix of the song.

Beg For Me is the 12th track on her fifth studio album West End Girl, which is said to detail the alleged infidelity of her ex-husband, US actor David Harbour.

Allen is set perform the album at Mighty Hoopla in London’s Brockwell Park on Saturday.

Jade rose to fame as Jade Thirlwall after winning The X Factor with Little Mix in 2011 alongside Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards.

Nelson left in December 2020 and the remaining singers launched solo careers in 2022.

The girl band scored five number one singles and a number one album in the UK, while Jade’s debut solo single, Angel Of My Dreams, reached number seven.
