Little Mix fans defend 'respectful reason' Leigh-Anne Pinnock cropped Jesy Nelson out of waxwork photo
The group were unveiled at Madame Tussauds this week
Little Mix fans have defended Leigh-Anne Pinnock after she cropped former bandmate Jesy Nelson out of picture of the group’s brand-new waxworks.
The ‘Confetti’ hitmakers were recently immortalised in their own waxworks at popular London attraction Madame Tussauds to commemorate the group’s 10th anniversary.
Despite quitting Little Mix last year, Jesy Nelson was included in the new figure alongside Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, which is modelled in the style of their 2019 ‘Bounce Back’ music video.
Mum-to-be Leigh-Anne shared pictures from the exhibition on her Instagram story, including close-up shots of her own waxwork, as well as current bandmates Jade and Perrie.
However, LM fans have took to social media to defend Leigh’s decision not to include Jesy in the post, insisting that it is her way of respecting her friend’s wishes to not be in the band anymore.
One Mixer wrote on Twitter: ‘Leigh-Anne cropped Jesy… probably to respect Jesy wish of not being part of the group… Jesy wants no part of LM and Leigh-Anne posted… Little Mix??’
Another fan added: ‘I’m pretty sure Leigh didn’t cropped Jesy for Shady Reasons… She just respects the decision that Jesy doesn’t want to get associated with Little Mix anymore.’
This all aligns with Jesy not sharing any snaps of the waxworks herself on her own social media after she left the group back in December.
