Little Mix stun in new photoshoot & reveal they are learning to adapt after Jesy's departure

[Slayer]

Little Mix's 4th single from the album 'Confetti' is out tomorrow - the single is also called 'Confetti' and features Saweetie.

The original version included Jesy but she has been removed and the new version has been re-worked.

The girls are the cover of Euphoria this month and gave an interview.

The track in its original form was already so loved by the group, which made it a perfect fit for this new life. “We love the song ‘Confetti,’ it’s always been one of our favorites and we know from socials that the fans love it too!” Perrie Edwards says.

“It felt right to do an updated version of the song and give it a moment!” Jade Thirlwall adds. “We then got Saweetie, who we love, on it to add some extra flavor.” And it wouldn’t be complete without a video — which they’ve already shot. “We really feel it might be one of our best videos ever. We’re really excited for everyone to see it,” Leigh-Anne Pinnock adds.

The track drops April 30 and marks a new chapter for Little Mix, whose lives were rocked at the end of 2020 when the fourth member of the group, Jesy Nelson, decided to step away to focus on her mental health. And while this decision shook everyone, “the girls,” as they’re affectionately known by their team, their fans, and just about anyone else who knows anything about them, soldiered on.

“It’s still all systems go in Little Mix world,” Thirlwall shares. “It’s just learning to adapt. I think it’s quite exciting. And we got off to a good start as a three by having our No. 1 single in the UK. That was like, ‘Oh wow, this is a good sign, good omen, that this year is going to be good for us.’”

Little Mix has taken the last year in stride, like many of us have. Fortunately for them, they had most of the work for Confetti done before COVID really took hold of the world, but all of their promo plans were essentially destroyed, including a tour. “We had to launch our first single campaign during lockdown, which was pretty bizarre,” Thirlwall says of dropping “Break Up Song” in March last year. “It was all on social media and we had to find a way of adapting to the circumstances. Luckily we’ve got an amazing online fanbase who will lap up any social media content. So it was just about trying to move with the times and get through it. We really committed.”

Leigh-Anne added that this year has been about dumping anything toxic from her life and “being around people that make you feel good and that bring something positive into your life.”

“If I had any advice for people, it would be to only follow accounts that make you feel good about yourself,” Thirlwall shares. “Or ones that don’t make you feel like you’re not enough or compare yourself to what that person’s doing.” Pinnock adds that she thinks this year for her has really been about dumping anything toxic from her life and “being around people that make you feel good and that bring something positive into your life.”

The girls are also big advocates of therapy — individual therapy and group therapy. “We love going to therapy together,” Edwards gushes of how they handle their mental health in such a rigorous job. “We also have each other, which is huge. We’re each other’s support system in a way because we’re sisters and feel every emotion together. We can always lean on each other.”

The group will release their new single Confetti on Friday but teased their fans should expect more collaborations following their tune No Time For Tears with Nathan Dawe.

Perrie continued: “We are in the studio at the moment doing different collab ideas.

“Because we’ve just launched Confetti, it’s nice to experiment with different artists at the moment. I think we’re really into that at the minute, just featuring or jumping on someone’s track.

“I think it’s nice to have that little bridge after you’ve released an album to switch things up a little bit.”

“We just want to say a little thank you for everyone being so sweet and dedicated and patient with us through this lockdown and just being the best fans ever,” Edwards shares. Pinnock and Thirlwall nod along, agreeing with Edwards’s sentiment. All three happily called out the joy the fans bring, especially at concerts. “Our fans are so loud and just the best, in shows they’re amazing. They’re crazy. We love it,” Pinnock gushes while the three reminisced about traveling the world playing concerts.
