She burst on to the music scene as the girl next door with her cover of Elton John’s Your Song in 2010.
But now Ellie Goulding has well and truly shed that image by stripping off to star as Marie Claire’s cover girl.
Looking stunning with her arms protecting her modesty, the 27-year-old revealed why she’s not the good girl of pop people like to think she is.

Discussing being ‘squeaky clean’ she said: ‘People might think I am but I'm not. I've been quite clever about what gets in the press but I've done some stupid things, some reckless things. A few too many drinks have caused a lot of things to happen.’
She also told the magazine about why she’s still single after being linked to Niall Horan and Jeremy Irvine in the past year, saying: ‘People seem to think I'm more wife material than girlfriend material.
'That's probably why I'm single! People want to marry me – and nothing before it.’

The talented singer also opened up about Prince William and Kate, revealing: ‘They're just a really awesome couple, lovely people, so I understand why people are fascinated by them.'

Accompanying the interview the Burn songstress posed for a stunning photoshoot, showing off the figure she works so hard on.
In one image she poses in just a pair of leather trousers revealing her very toned stomach.
Her arms are lifted in front of her chest, making sure she doesn’t give too much away, while her hair is pushed to one side creating a very sexy look.
Another image sees her wearing the leather trousers but this time with a loose fitted denim jacket featuring rips and splatters of paint.
Meanwhile Ellie has debuted a teaser trailer video for her next single Goodness Gracious – her sixth from her album Halcyon.
The clip shows her having fun with friends, surrounded by neon lights and even shows her dancing in hotpants while wearing light up trainers.
The song comes after she released How Long Will I Love You, which was in aid of Child In Need.
The upcoming year will see the hugely successful star play three arena shows in the UK in March – Liverpool, Nottingham and London.
Looking forward to what lies ahead she tweeted on Wednesday: ‘So excited for tour’.
