Little Mix star Jade Thirlwall shocked at 'self hatred' in old Facebook post
The Little Mix star, 27, shared a Facebook post from 2010, under the name Louise Ross, in which she asked Santa for bigger breasts and "a body more toned than nicole scherzinger's".
She also asked to get rid of acne on her chin.
She captioned the Instagram post: "Kinda funny but WOW the self hatred here!! I feel sad knowing that version of myself in 2010 was so self conscious she felt the need to post publicly self deprecating herself.
