Biggest Girl Group: LITTLE MIX

Ever heard of the name 'LITTLE MIX?' Are you wondering what it is? I'll tell you.

Little Mix is the biggest, best selling, British girl group put together in 2011 for the eighth edition of UK's 'The X Factor' and later on the winner of the competition. The little mix consists of four stunning ladies with big voices. They are- Jade Thirlwall, 27, Perrie Edwards, 27, Leigh-Anne Pinnock, 28, and Jessy Nelson, 29. They were the first-ever group to win 'The X Factor.' All the members auditioned as solo artists on 'The X Factor' and were later joined together as a group.


In 2011, the group was originally called 'Rhythmix' but had to change because of a dispute with a children's music charity which had the same name. Since their win back in 2011, Little Mix has sold 4 UK Number 1, over 39 million records and have now surpassed 3 billion views on YouTube. After their debut single 'Cannonball' in 2011, Little Mix is unstoppable as they have created more hits over the years like 'Salute' {2014}, 'Shout Out To My Ex' {2016}, 'Power Ft Stormzy' {2017}, 'Woman Like Me Ft Nicki Minaj' {2018}, 'Think About Us Ft Ty Dolla Sign' {2019} and the recent ones like 'Break up Song' and 'Holiday' in 2020. Little Mix has an estimated sale of over 50 Million Albums, 15.8 Million Singles and 2.98  Million Albums in the UK.

Little Mix has won various awards over the years. They won a British Award for song of the year in 2017 and another one for British Video of the year in 2019. Little Mix is worth around £50 Million, which means each member is worth roughly £12.5 Million each. They have also recorded 6 studio Albums- 'DNA' {2012}, 'Salute' {2013}, 'Get Weird' {2015}, 'Glory Days' {2016} 'LM5' {2018} and the recent one this year which is dubbed 'LM6.' Little Mix has recorded 25 singles and 29 music videos. Fans of Little Mix call themselves' Mixers.' With Jessy Nelson, Jade Thirlwirl, Perrie Edwards and Leigh-Anne Pinnock out there, I don't think they'll be a better girl group in a long time. OR DO YOU??!
