Jade would ‘never’ collaborate with this chart-topping male artist

Jade has shared which male pop artist she doesn’t want to collaborate with and the answer may not surprise long-time fans of the former Little Mix star

“Plastic Box” singer Jade’s debut solo album, THAT’S SHOWBIZ BABY!, is due out on 12 September and will feature tracks including “Angel of My Dreams” and “IT girl”.

Jade, 32, recently appeared on KISS FM UK’s Say It or Shot It, where guests have a choice of answering questions or taking a variety of shots.

The first question posed to Jade was about which artist she would “never” collaborate with. And rather than take a shot, Jade came in pretty quickly with her response.

“I feel like the fans already know someone I wouldn’t collaborate with, which is Charlie Puth,” she said.

Harriet Rose, the host of Say It or Shot It, seemed to have expected this but probed further, hoping the queer icon and ally would spill some tea.

“Just don’t,” Jade offered in terms of an explanation. She then added cryptically: “Nothing to say, just yet, on that one.”

It’s certainly an intriguing answer and implies that things aren’t good between Jade and Puth. Jade’s answer didn’t surprise everyone, though.

“Saw that answer coming from a mile away,” wrote one in the comments pin the YouTube video. “Her beef with Charlie Puth is so funny,” added another. “I knew she would say Charlie immediately,” wrote another viewer.

The two musical artists collaborated on “Oops” when Jade was a part of Little Mix along with Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards, and Jesy Nelson.

The quintet performed the song live on the final of The X-Factor in 2016. After the performance Puth admitted to finding Jade, who was in a relationship at the time, attractive.
