The Little Mix star doesn't reach the milestone until December 26 but she celebrated early by throwing a lavish fancy dress party for her friends and family on on Saturday night (17.12.22) - with the singer wearing a purple jumpsuit which left one breast partly exposed in tribute to Lil Kim's outfit she wore to the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards.
In a post on Instagram, Jade shared a picture of her costume and wrote: "It’s that time of year where I force my friends to do fancy dress to celebrate my (early) birthday in the hopes of overshadowing Santa. honouring an icon … I’m the L-I-L to the K-I-M. Disagree? Well that’s you and I’m sorry."
Other guests included author Hazel Hayes who came dressed as Madonna complete with a blonde wig, singer Dodie who dressed as Kate Bush and musician KABBA who wore one of Mary J. Blige's most famous outfits.
Singer Ella Eyre dressed as Beyonce - recreating her 'Lemonade' album cover in a bright yellow dress and holding a baseball bat.
The party had the theme "JMAs" - a reference to the VMAs - and featured food from chicken chain Nando's complete with pink napkins emblazoned with the words: "30, spicy and thriving".
Jade shared a picture of herself enjoying the food and captioned it: "Nando’s went down a treat."
Guests were also treated to entertainment by musician Ayo Beatz.
Jade is a big fan of fancy dress parties and has previously dressed up as stars including Whitney Houston and Diana Ross.
