Disgusting.... They tweeted from dead girls account to stire up the drama. Yuck.

Anyways Shout Out To My Ex outpeaked Black Magic on US ITunes

Yall actually believe this is real? It was posted at 7:35 PM, was the song even out yet then?

 

Edit: Mess just read the last page nvm

54 - what a fantastic start on Spotify!

I believe how massive they've become. I mean, they've managed to outdo Bruno Mars and Weeknd/Daft Punk tracks on iTunes by some margin. They have James Arthur down to 0.6125, incredible.

 

It would have easily been #1 if it was released on Friday. I'm starting to really believe it might make it next Friday though. They still have the video up their sleeves too.

FYI, The X Factor was up almost a million last night on Saturday's show. Pretty sure the results show usually drops from the previous night so we have Little Mix to thank there!

Number 1 in New Zealand

Massive! New Zealand and Oz charts are always the best at making songs hits first by the way. They're generally ahead of the game.

Such a great lead single! I'm blown away!

 

Seeing Perrie so happy at the end of the performance really warmed my heart :yahoo:

#2 in Australia

Little Mix - Shout Out to My Ex 1.0000

James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go 0.4297

 

 

WOAH

 

 

Also, added to Hot Hits, The Pop List and they have the cover of "one week playlist" on Spotify.

This is going to be huge! And they have more promo lined up.

 

Hopefully the video drops when it starts to slow down a bit.

I don't understand what the numbers mean? Does it signify how far ahead it is or something?

The figure on the right was the difference between the songs in the last update (2 hours ago). The first set of figures are where they are now.

1.0000 means they are number 1

 

1 Little Mix - Shout Out to My Ex 1.0000 1.0000

2 James Arthur - Say You Won't Let Go 0.4297 0.6125

Difference in terms of popularity/sales? So are you saying that LM is pretty much outselling JA by 2 copies to 1 at this stage?

Yeah - more than double now.

It is based on iTunes sales

15,391 is the 24 hour rolling figure. Pretty huge.

Also, they've been confirmed for Birmingham's Free Radio Live on 26th November :)

 

I'll add it to the tour page as well!

Going to have massive sales and not even a full week.

It's early days but I'm very happy and proud of them seeing the initial success with this single. It still feels weird that, as a girl group, they're the only group to win The X Factor and for their fourth era to possibly be their biggest yet, as both a girl group again and an act from The X Factor, is amazing. I think it helped that the two eras, whilst successful, weren't massive successes as it helped them to establish themselves, build up a fanbase, build up performance skills and confidence so they could grow for the third era without setting themselves up for a fall. Those with massive first eras just seem to go on a gradual decline in terms of sales.

 

I think what also works for them is that they are genuinely really close friends and there's never (to my knowledge) been any rumours or news of in-fighting or dislike for one another. It's the bond that helped them progress on The X Factor too, they were performing as a group rather than four individuals. I watched Four of Diamonds' performance of 'You Keep Me Hanging On' on YouTube after hearing they were doing the same song as Little Mix did just to see how it compared. There's a massive amount of difference, which may be expected considering Little Mix did it in one of the final weeks but Four of Diamonds were just all over the place in terms of stage presence, with them all doing their own random thing. They looked more like they were the Girls category doing a special group performance whilst Little Mix looked like they were an established act.

 

It obviously helps that Little Mix actually had a routine but that's what helped set them apart from other girl groups who appeared on the show. Four of Diamonds could have at least sorted out some sort of thing rather than just walking up and down.

 

 

 

(sorry bit of a tangent but I was just realising what has helped Little Mix be so successful when no one would have ever expected it even after their win)

:heart: yes Froot.

 

I feel proud too. I put so much effort voting for them every week on the X Factor and I really feel like they've given so much back.

I heard during the last era a rumbling between Leigh-Anne and Jesy... was this just gossip?
