She wrote: “So, since I was five years old all I’ve ever wanted to be was Ginger Spice.

“She was my ultimate idol because she was bold, fearless and the ultimate girl power pin up.

“My mum took me to Romford Market to get a Union Jack dress but they’d all sold out so I cried the whole way home. Well tonight Matthew, I am Ginger Spice.”

Jesy also posted a video where she’s strutting up and down in the dress and posing just like Geri would.

She captioned it: “Spice up your f***in life huns!”

The Little Mix girls announced earlier this week that they would like to perform with no make-up on so they can embrace who they really are.

It comes after the girls went barefaced and stripped naked for the epic music video for their song Strip.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun Online, the band - who found fame on The X Factor - said they wanted to stand up to the keyboard warriors.

Leigh-Anne Pinnock, 27, explained: "Yes, we would [go make up free on stage].

"There's nothing better than just having a fresh face and not giving a c*** about what everyone says."

Giving her opinion on the empowering concept, Perrie Edwards, 25, explained: "It felt so good. Taking our make-up off and just feeling comfy. Embracing it. Embracing who we are."

Jade Thirlwall, 25, added: "The video wasn't retouched or anything, it was all as it was."

In the video for Strip the girls are pictured naked with hurtful slogans written over their body as they sing: "Take off all my make-up because I love what's under it."

They also vowed never to change their image despite trolls slating them for their "raunchy" stage outfits.

Sun Online Showbiz previously revealed that Jesy Nelson froze her "t**s off" in a red lacy bodysuit after she was thrown out of an Uber for singing.
