TV Queens

Little Mix formed in 2011 as part of the 8th season of The X Factor UK. Perrie Edwards, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jesy Nelson and Jade Thirlwall all auditioned as solo acts, but were thrown together as a group and ultimately won the competition! As soloists they all succeeded, but didn't make it past bootcamp - turned out their power as soloists didn't compare to their potential together. They originally wanted to call themselves Rhythmix, but ended up with Little Mix instead.
