The ladies of Little Mix hold hands while stepping out for promo on Friday (April 30) in London.
The trio – Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall and Perrie Edwards – were seen stopping by Capital Radio Station for their first official public appearance as a trio.
That day, the ladies released their brand new single, the “Confetti” remix, which features Saweetie.
“We’re serving you looks, choreo and introducing you to three very special lads. We are so proud of this one hope you all love it!” LM wrote.
For the music video, they enlisted RuPaul’s Drag Race UK season two stars Tayce, A’whora and winner Bimini Bon Boulash. Little Mix even got into a bit of drag themselves and dressed up like guys!
“THANKS @littlemix @jadethirlwall @leighannepinnock @perrieedwards for having me in your new music video! Congratulations it looks SO MAJOR!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥,” Bimini shared on Instagram.

Just last month, Little Mix was nominated for Best British Group at the 2021 BRIT Awards!
“BEST BRITISH GROUP 🎉 This means the world to us 💗 Thank you so much for the nomination @brits ps it’s a good job there’s no award for Best British Box Opener… #BRITs,” they shared.
The ladies of Little Mix are dishing on facing sexism in the industry.
In their new Glamour UK digital cover story, Jade Thirlwall, Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock opened up about sexism, female solidarity, and having to take a break this past year due to the pandemic.
“We’ve always had a voice as a four, we’ve been a force and we’ve always been very, ‘we stick together on things,’” Leigh-Anne shared. “But there have been times, like with [music] labels, [where they’ve] backed us into a corner and it is obviously mainly men; they see us as four women and don’t take us seriously. We’ve had that for our whole career. Even until recently. I’m asking, ‘Has much really changed?”
Perrie added, “As girls in the industry, it’s hard enough as it is without saying something, slip up, and then it gets totally blown out of context. We were always just so terrified of that happening, we hated it. That’s why we would just scoot around things.”
On female solidarity, Jade shared, “We’ve shown that women standing together works, even with all the obstacles in our way. Right from the beginning, we were the dark horse on The X Factor, and no one expected us to do well. After that, everyone would say, ‘They’ll do one single and maybe one album and will get dropped.’ We persevered and got through it.”
“We grew and became adult women together,” Jade continued. “It’s impactful, to show others that you can have longevity, you can break barriers, win awards and break records on the back of sticking together and being a force of women. If I had a little girl, seeing that unfold before her, from being ten years to 20 years old, what a great thing to have in the pop industry as a message to young women.”

Liam Payne is speaking out about Jesy Nelson‘s recent announcement that she’s leaving Little Mix.
The 27-year-old “Naught List” singer compared her exit to that of Zayn Malik‘s split from One Direction.
“Someone Zayn‘d out,” Liam said during a TikTok live. “No, no. Let’s be serious about this. It’s always sad at this moment in time when bands get into that sort of thing. Having been there myself, I felt that Zayn left for pretty much the same reason in a weird way.”
“I wish Jesy all the best. I wish the girls all the best for carrying on as a three,” he continued. “It’s a tough time and I do feel for them because everyone is watching in that little fishbowl at the moment and no one really understands what’s going on or how it feels for some people.”
Jesy announced on Monday in a letter to fans that she was leaving Little Mix due to the toll it was taking on her mental health. The rest of the group also released a statement, showing full support for their now former bandmate.
