Solid performance but it was a bit awkward when they just bopped while Nicki's hour long rap bit was going :lol: They should have prepared a Nicki-less edit or sth with a new middle 8 or extra verse.

 

That dance break my favourite part oops.

 

 

I thought it was a great performance but we expect 11/10 from the girls every time and it wasn’t their best.

 

So disappointed with their blatant miming :(

 

But liked the overall performance and they look stunning as always.

 

Literally nothing happened before that long-ass Nicki verse. Probably their worst performance. Oh well, hopefully it'll do the trick and they'll get enough of a boost to reach #1.

New peak of #4 on Apple Music by the way.

It was a fine performance. I do think we’ve become used to them serving every single time so when it’s just ‘ok’ we’re left underwhelmed.

 

They did well - it could have been better but it did it’s job.

Hopefully it gives them a big boost on itunes,

I believe this week is the best week for them to get #1

59p, Video first week views, stable on streaming.

Hopefully the boost is big enough to put #1 in the bag for them.

Is it better than any of their X-Factor performances in recent years? No. Is it still great? Yes. They just had a lot of stage to work this time so they didn't do a lot of choreo. I would have liked to see better outfits though - they sort of already did what they did today last year for Power/RL.

Rita got a bigger boost than them and overtook them iTunes despite performing afterwards. Strictly gets double the viewers these days I guess.

I think you'll have to judge the boost by tomorrow, I don't think the performance will be enough to get them back to #1 on itunes though.

It was a perfectly serviceable if unspectacular performance from them. I was expecting much worse based on all the hysteria online. This single campaign in general has been an absolute slog to get through. It just seems like it's been relentless negativity ever since the single's premiere. Hell, even the video seemed to garner less praise than say, Power's, when it's by far and away their best MV yet. Roll on the album/single 2.

I noticed that too. With girl group stans, they only realise how great they were when they're gone.

I don’t think this video was as big a spectacle as Power but most comments I’ve seen agree that it’s their best.

I spent years with the task of massively stanning The Saturdays and they unfortunately never put on a performance as good as Little Mix’s ‘disappointing’ one tonight. We’re a bit spoilt with Little Mix because their performances are so often next level.

Performance just hoghlighted how bad the song is.

 

Thst side stepping during Nicki’s hour long rap cause she cbaed to turn up, Jesy looked awful, Leigh’s watched too much RuPaul it seems with the shit lipsyncing.

I like Little Mix but yeah, that performance was bloody horrendous :drama:

I dunno if it's just the comments here and elsewhere, but I thought the performance was brilliant :lol:

 

Little Mix "not at their best" is literally 100x better than most artists at their best for me. :lol: Also, I expected much less from the Minaj bit, but I thought it was a well thought out routine.

 

Looooved it. :wub:

"bloody horrendous"? Like, really?

 

Each to their own I guess. :lol:

I feel like it was underwhelming but only because they set the standard so high for themselves. It was an amazing performance by anyone else’s standards but it was just an ok Little Mix performance.

"bloody horrendous"? Like, really?

 

Each to their own I guess. :lol:

It wasn’t horrendous, but it wasn’t great. The song falls flat live imo, well flatter :lol:

I don't mind the criticisms btw haha.

 

I just think there's some major over exaggeration in regards to the performance haha.
