Love Island's Ella Thomas' music video fame before she headed into villa

ok.co.uk:

Ella Thomas joined the cast of Love Island and quickly revealed that her biggest claim to fame was starring in a music video.The model, 23 starred in the video with Headie One and Burna Boy when she was 12 years old and has also met Brad Pitt. "I’ve been in a Headie One and Burna Boy music video and I was once an extra in World War Z," she explained. "I was 12 years old when I filmed it and got to meet Brad Pitt which was cool." While being an extra in the film alongside one of the most well-known names in acting is pretty cool, the 23 year old flashes up in the music video for approximately a few seconds - so quickly that if you blinked you could actually miss it.The music video for Headie One and Burna Boy – Siberia – is set in the mountains during the winter.

Ella briefly appears around two-thirds of the way through the video when she's spotted on a ski lift alongside Headie One. Although it is not confirmed, it looks as though she could have appeared again while in the back of a car which is shown a little later in the video - but it's hard to tell if it's Ella or not as the shot is over so quickly.The Love Islander was quick to label this as her claim to fame, but she actually has other impressive lifetime accomplishments to highlight.

She has led a very successful career as a model and was even named the Female Model of the Year at the Scottish Media Awards in October 2022.

The Islander hails from Glasgow, Scotland and said she entered Love Island because she wants to find "the whole package." "I know what I want in life and I’ve got a big heart," she said.
