From Stage to Stardom: Nell Mescal Takes Glasgow by Storm!

Nell Mescal, 22, is the sister of Gladiator and Normal People star Paul Mescal , 29, and she proved that he is not the only talented member at Glasgow's TRNSMT festival on Sunday when she performed on the BBC Introducing stage

SCANDALOUS SINGERS TAKE OVER TRNSMT FESTIVAL!

The sun was shining bright and the drama was brewing at Glasgow's TRNSMT festival on Sunday, where two sizzling singers stole the show! Nell Mescal, 22, and Jade Thirlwall, formerly of Little Mix, brought their A-game to the BBC Introducing stage, leaving fans in awe. But what makes this Irish songstress so special? Hint: she's got a Hollywood icon for a sibling!

Nell, sister of Gladiator hunk Paul Mescal (yes, THAT Paul Mescal!), proved she's more than just a talented gene pool by dazzling crowds with her own brand of magic. Her unreleased track "Carried Away" had the audience singing along in no time – and it all started with a tantalizing teaser on TikTok!

Nell performed a set including her unreleased track Carried Away and to her delight the audience sang back the lyrics after she teased the track on TikTok

But don't think Nell's just riding her famous sibling's coattails; this rising star has got talent oozing from every pore! With influences like Phoebe Bridgers, Frank Ocean, and Bon Iver, she's carving out her own path in the music industry. And with a passion for writing songs that leave a lasting impression, Nell's on a mission to make you feel something – anything!

Meanwhile, Jade Thirlwall brought her A-game (and more!) to the main stage, flaunting her new solo status as the first Little Mix alumnus to receive a Brit Award! This tartan-tastic tart burst onto the scene in a racy dress that left little to the imagination. And when she suffered an epic wardrobe malfunction mid-performance? Well, let's just say Jade took it in stride, poking fun at her areola-exposing mishap and leaving fans in stitches!

But don't worry, it wasn't all about the drama (although, let's be real, that was a major highlight); both Nell and Jade delivered solid sets filled with their own hits and Little Mix classics. Nell wowed with her soothing vocals, while Jade brought the house down with her powerhouse pipes.

She has been a rising star since moving to London in 2021, where her brother Paul, (pictured), also lives, to seriously pursue singing and songwriting

As for the festival itself? TRNSMT was the place to be as Scotland basked in a heatwave of up to 30 degrees! With the likes of Nell and Jade taking over the stages, it's no wonder audiences were left begging for more. And who can blame them?

So, what are we waiting for? Let's get this party started with Nell and Jade – the ultimate dynamic duo!
