Ellie has been really busy over in America, and it really seems like she is doing well, which is great news! Yesterday, she appeared at the Grove shopping centre in Los Angeles for a live performance at a mini gig to promote Nike’s ‘She Runs LA’. ‘She Runs LA’ is a charitable 10k run for the women of LA to support students in the area. It’s goal is to raise access to running as a sport, for the under priveleged students in schools in the LA district.
Ellie looked like she was glowing of in the West Coast sun and her pink tracksuit, and you can view the photos of her posing for the cameras and performing in the gallery, and below.
Ellie’s American debut single, ‘Lights’ also features in a new Nike ad, also featuring Glee Actress, Lea Michele. If you would like to, you can view the ad below.

Ellie, born in Hereford, is probably best known for her number four hit 'Starry Eyed' and her cover of Elton John's 'Your Song'. She topped the BBC Sound of 2010 poll, and won the 2010 Critics' Choice Brit Award. After that her year just got better, with her debut album going straight in at number one. Ellie performed at most of the festivals in the summer of 2010, including Glastonbury! Her final single of 2010, 'Your Song', peaked at number two in the UK Top 40 and 2011 was another great year for Ellie, who released her debut album in America in March and performed at Coachella festival. Ellie was also chosen to play for the royal couple (William and Kate) at their after party to their wedding in April, and even appeared on Saturday Night Live with Tina Fey. She was later chosen to represent drinks brand, SoBe, in the UK. Ellie is set to release new music in 2012, and Ellie-G.com cannot wait!
