Little Mix are eyeing-up a quick return to the stage after they were forced to cancel two show’s because Jesy Nelson took ill.
The group – made up of Jesy, Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock – are scheduled to perform at the Sheffield Arena on Saturday.
There was a question mark over whether the girls would be able to play after pulling out of two concerts in Belfast on Thursday .
However the venue has told BBC Newsround that the show is expected to go ahead as planned tomorrow evening.
The arena has continued to retweet posts about the show, with one reading: “Girl group ‘Little Mix’ are performing live this Saturday night @SheffieldArena #WhatsOn #Sheffield #Derbyshire.”
Many had already arrived at the venue when the announcement was made shortly before their afternoon gig was due to start at 2pm.
A statement from the band on Twitter explained: “Little Mix have unfortunately had to cancel both of their Arena shows in Belfast today.
“Sadly Jesy is unwell and unable to sing, and as a result both the matinee and evening shows are cancelled.
“Little Mix would like to apologise to their fans. Ticket holders should hold on to their tickets and await further news.”
The brunette songstress sparked concern when she told the fans ‘I’m so emotional’ while struggling to contain her tears.
After she tried to compose herself, Jesy’s bandmates could be seen rushing to comfort her, before she said: “I don’t know what’s wrong with me!”

We catch up with the girls all about the sound of their next record, and what the title REALLY means.
OMG stop TEASING us, ladies! We’ve been chatting to Little Mix ALL about their brand new album ‘Get Weird’ and what their fans can expect from album three.
The ‘Black Magic’ four-piece announced their brand new album earlier this month, which finally arrives this Autumn, and promise it’s all about being yourself.
“Well, we’re all about embracing our inner weirdness,” Perrie Edwards explained to Toby Tarrant at Thorpe Park Resort. “We think it’s fun to be individual, it’s fun to be out there and crazy and just not care what anybody thinks. That’s what it’s all about.”
The ‘Wings’ band ALSO teased that there could well be a surprise collaboration cropping up on the tracklist.
Not as of yet, but there might be! We have some in mind actually,” Perrie added. So watch this space!
And finally, Jade Thirlwall gave us a few clues about what to expect from the album’s sound, and it’ll see the girls going SERIOUSLY pop on us.
“It’s a bit more pop, it’s a little more pop I think,” Jade added. “It’s a bit cheekier with the lyrics, and it’s a bit more dancey.”
Little Mix’s new album ‘Get Weird’ arrives on 6th November.

I am honoured to work with a brand that understands and encourages everything that I stand for! I cannot wait for you to see what we’ve been working on!”
Jade is launched her first-ever fashion collection with Skinnydip! A lil mix of her signature style and the brand’s equally playful vibe, this ridiculously fun collab is everything! This new collab, she’s practically handing us her go-to vibe on a plate – think oversized ’fits, logo-loaded styles and cute vest tops.
With each piece in the collab, you can dress it up or down depending on the occasion/mood.
Leigh-Anne is launching her own bikini line, In‘A’Seashell with one of her closest gal pals, Gabrielle Urquhart, which serves up swimwear that promotes self-love and heavy helpings of body confidence.
“It all started as a conversation in Miami with one of my closest friends, Gabby, and she told me she wanted to do a bikini line and her boyfriend had bought her a sewing machine. I said, ‘seriously? Because that is exactly what I want to do!’”
