TheSats_NYshow — Frankie shows off her enviable figure in a pair of black hotpants and jeweled bustier top

Mollie, Frankie, Rochelle, Una and Vanessa have been Stateside for the past month in their bid to follow in the footsteps of The Wanted and One Direction, and crack America.

The Saturdays have been kept busy shooting a reality TV series for E! which has seen the girls attend the MTV Video Music Awards, perform at Perez Hilton’s party, appear on daytime shows and now they’re performed a show in the city that never sleeps.

The girls are in New York to launch themselves in the North American market and have been creating buzz with a series of public appearances.

The UK hitmakers made their live performing debut on the East Coast when they performed at the XL nightclub last night.

Glistening in sparkling bustiers teamed with short black hotpants – although Vanessa and Una decided to cover a little more of their modesty by wearing mini-skirts over their tiny shorts – the girls sang an array of their famous hits.
