I've only heard LM5 and Confetti but I definitely agree that their album tracks are pretty weak for an act as talented as them. There's no reason why they couldn't produce an all killer no filler album full of bops like 7/27 (yes, I went there) instead of having 4 or 5 amazing songs and the rest being filler garbage.

The verses seem a little too low for them to sing live or the mics weren't turned up enough, I was a bit underwhelmed. (it's no Secret Love Song/Monster In Me) As for Jade I just adore her. She's always lived and breathed Little Mix. She's constantly in 'Jade from Little Mix' mode and on social media posting memes, having inside jokes with fans, talking about Wasabi (it's basically her solo music video), her and Leigh do the most songwriting and she was travelling to every radio station in the UK this year solo while Leigh and Perrie were on Zoom calls when she could easily have done the same. I have no doubts she'll bring out an amazing album and Leigh/Perrie will slay whatever route they choose but I do genuinely feel like Jade would probably keep going if the others did. She's just born to be a girl group member and that's no shade to her potential ability as a solo artist - she just GETS girl groups. She stans The Saturdays megamix, she mentioned all the groups at Brit Awards....she's one of us!!

They had that acoustic Confetti performance in May time and I think before that must have been the Sweet Melody promo. :( Jeez.

Their first performance in about seven or eight months, right?

Yeah I imagine when they return they'll be seen as more of a 'legacy act' and won't really have any hit singles but I'd love to be surprised. (it's such a shame that their potentially last ever top ten was Kiss My :puke2: )

Sad but expected. I hope they get a Brits performance/medley to end their first run together. (Edit - I can't at them managing to find so much footage of them as a 3 piece from 2012, they must have been on YouTube looking for as much content as possible to use)

Literally every pop group in history (besides The Saturdays for some bizarre reason) have got back together and half of them have had major fall-outs, less of a discography and less success than Little Mix. These girls have been huge for ten years and adore eachother. There's no way they won't at least get back together for a tour at some point. If Busted, Pussycat Dolls, Girls Aloud, Spice Girls, Sugababes, Westlife, JLS, The Wanted, Steps, S Club 7, All Saints, Take That and others can do it then so can they.

This is the worst part for me. They're (Little Mix) very obviously going to come back in a few years but this is the first time since 1996 where there hasn't been an active girl group in the UK.

That's so messed up. (I 'hope' it was more to do with the scarf and it wasn't because they knew who Jesy was or disliked her and wanted an excuse for an argument)

God, Matty is so hot....

I really hope they do something to 'go out' with a bang and not a fizzle out. A documentary? Farewell gig? TV show? A goodbye single (that gets a big push)? A split announcement for the headlines and last minute sales?

I think the bones of 'No' is a good song. It has a catchy melody and the lyrics are decent enough but the production is just really cheap and so is the video so it definitely does feel more of a 4th single from an album than launching a Greatest Hits. It just needs beefier production and to sound more 'darker' and powerful.

I don't think it's a PR stunt but it is very....unfortunate. Out of the millions of guys in the UK she has to date one that used to date her ex-bandmate who she just had a 'fued' with last month? How could she not see how that would be more negative press attention and jokes at her expense? (That's not me 'attacking' Jesy but her decisions are so awful sometimes)

The TV ad for this is glorious. I've heard it twice now during I'm A Celebrity. That instant SMASH of the chorus of Shout Out To My Ex followed by Touch/Heartbreak Anthem/Black Magic/Sweet Melody (and No, ugh) in a short 30 second clip is heaven. How could you listen to that and not jump on their Spotify page?

Anyone else think the coin challenges are more fun/interesting than the actual trials? I wouldn't mind if they swapped them around - not everything needs to be about bugs, darkness and stars!

(Again I'm being sooo picky but I would have loved to see them react to stuff we haven't heard them talk about a million times before already)

No way is that true. iTunes is completely dead and she was out of the top 100 within a few days. She's lucky if she's sold about 10K.

I did initially cringe at Frankie's 'our camp' comment but when she explained it afterwards I thought it was fair enough and NB completely took it out of context and didn't even let her finish her sentence. Didn't the show add two middle aged male soap actors in the 2019 series too after a few days? Andy and Minty?

The trials in Wales are so underwhelming. :( I get the fact they're restricted because they have to be indoors due to the weather and they can't take advantage of the location (unlike Australia where you can do underwater trials, zip wires and be outdoors) so everything in Wales is either an eating challenge or a 'find the stars' thing but it's just not very interesting to watch is it? In fact the first 15 minutes of this episode was them talking about a bloody robin as well. Then it was adverts!

(a management company isn't a record label though, right?)

Yeah that was a shock. There's no way Naughty Boy (who got the most coverage for the entire episode) didn't get the most votes - especially considering all the drama he started. They probably 'skipped' him and went to the 2nd or 3rd highest votes as he'd walk otherwise. I did initially like NB alot and think he was quite witty and likeable and goofy but he seems to have major confidence or self esteem issues and I don't like him implying the other group were sinister or bullies for picking him when he'd 'already did a challenge' as if he couldn't possibly do a 10 minute trial and a 10 minute challenge (walking up and down stairs with a bucket) in one day.

Just saw the advert on I’m A Celebrity break! That will reach a huge audience.

Confetti didn't have anything either and still charted at 85.

Yikes at the US position. :o

Ugh, this is another flop isn't it? Such a shame. :( Not top 200 on any major Spotify charts after a week...
