Little Mix Will Not Be Working With Simon Cowell Anymore

Little Mix has signed on with a new record label.

After working together since winning The X Factor UK back in 2011, the girls – Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall, Perrie Edwards, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock – and producer Simon Cowell have decided to split.

Little Mix has reportedly become increasingly frustrated over the past year working at Simon‘s record label Syco, leading to a major fallout just days ahead of the release of their new album LM5.

According to reports, that girls confronted Simon in an email – detailing all of the issues they’ve had with his label. Little Mix‘s management company Modest and Simon had another fallout, leading Simon to cut all ties with the company’s artists.

A spokesperson for Simon then released a statement to The Sun saying, ““Syco Music will no longer work with Modest Management and therefore any artists signed to that management company. We do, of course, wish all artists affected by this decision every future success. Consequently, LM5, the forthcoming Little Mix album A&R’d and released on Syco Music, is to be serviced by RCA at the request of Syco and Simon Cowell.”
