Nicola Peltz has a secret pop star past just like her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham

These days Nicola Peltz is known for being a model and Hollywood actress.

But before the 27-year-old hit the bigtime with roles in Bates Motel, Transformers: Age of Extinction and The Last Airbender, she popped up in a number of music videos.

Eagle-eyed fans might not even have recognised the then 13-year-old when she starred in a Miley Cyrus video back in 2008.

Nicola was one of the teenage girls who lip synced their heart out for Miley’s breakup single ‘7 Things’.

The song was rumoured to be about Miley’s ex Nick Jonas – and a young Nicola looks very different to how she looks now.

Now a blonde, back then the teenager had long dark brown hair and cuddled a white teddy bear in the video.

She cries to the camera as she sings along with Miley to the punk rock track, which made it into the Top 10 in America.

As Nicola prepares to marry Victoria Beckham’s eldest son Brooklyn this weekend, it seems she is more similar to her famous mother-in-law than first thought.

While Victoria rose to fame as Posh Spice in the Spice Girls, Nicola has a secret pop star past of her own.

As well as appearing in Miley’s video as a youngster, she had a starring role in a Zayn Malik music video in 2016.

It’s You was dubbed Zayn’s break-up track from his Little Mix ex Perrie Edwards.

Although Zayn was dating supermodel Gigi Hadid at the time, it was her pal Nicola who was picked to play his love interest in the music video.

This was perhaps down to the blonde bombshell’s striking resemblance to Perrie, who Zayn was once engaged to.

Nicola said when she got the offer to appear in the video, she immediately called Gigi to check it was ok.

“I called her when I got the offer and she was like ‘Oh my God,” Nicola told Teen Vogue at the time.

“She really wanted me to do it. I mean, I love her so much and I’m really close with her, but she was exited for me. She’s the best.”

Now part of Nicola’s A-list inner circle, Gigi is set to be just one of the celebrity guests at her Miami wedding this weekend.

More close pals of Nicola’s include Sofia Richie and her older sister Nicole Richie .

Sofia, 23, has been part of Nicola’s super rich girl squad since 2015 and they are often spotted out together.

Other big names who have made the exclusive guest list include Gordon Ramsay and his family, who are close friends of the Beckhams.

Most of the Spice Girls are also set to be there, apart from Geri Horner who jetted off to Australia for the Grand Prix earlier this week.

While Snoop Dogg is bringing the tunes after saying earlier this year his gift to the couple would be a DJ set on their big day.
