's Leigh-Anne Pinnock allegedly altered the lyrics of the band's song Gloves Up during the opening show of its new tour to make a dig at former bandmate Jesy Nelson – following her bitter feud with the star

Leigh-Anne, 30, reportedly changed the lyrics for the song they performed at Belfast's SSE Arena to eliminate reference of there ever being four girls in the group.

The swimwear designer belted out 'legend of the three divas," instead of 'four divas', it is claimed.

It comes after Leigh-Anne hit out at Jesy last year after she was accused of Blackfishing after sporting a very tanned complexion in the music video to her debut solo single Boyz.

Following Jesy's departure, the band had a short hiatus, before announcing their Confetti tour.

During the show, the girls also suggested they were not considering ending the group permanently.

The words "Little Mix 2011-Forever" was projected on screens behind them.

Jade Thirlwall also told fans: "We wouldn't have got where we are today if it wasn't for the love we have for each other," The Sun reports.

She added: "We have been through absolutely everything together. We have cried together. We have laughed together. We have seen each other naked.

"We really are the best of friends. We are family now and that is going to remain for ever and ever, no matter what."

In October last year Leigh-Anne hit out at Jesy in an interview with The Telegraph's Stella Magazine, saying: "Capitalising on aspects of blackness without having to endure the daily realities of the black experience is problematic and harmful to people of colour."

"We think it’s absolutely not OK to use harmful stereotypes. There’s so much to say on that subject that it’s hard, to sum up in a sound bite."

Blackfishing is the term used when a white person appears to take on black cultural references which may be done through hairstyles, makeup or even surgery.

Little Mix's representatives have been contacted by Daily Star Online for comment.
