Earlier this week, it was confirmed that British girl group Little Mix will tour the USA on a string of headlining dates later this autumn and they've now spoken out about the exciting jaunt.

Member Jade Thirlwall took to the band's official Twitter page earlier today (April 22) and told fans that it's incredible to think they will be performing a series of concerts around the United States of America and they can't wait for the shows to kick off:

"So glad the #SaluteTourUSA is out there,couldn't hold it in any longer! #dreamcometrue thanks to our mixers for makin' it possible! xxjadexx."
