A decade of Little Mix to come to a close

British girl group Little Mix is set to announce their split next month, reports suggest, ending a decade-long tenure as one of the most successful girl groups in the country.

Sources close to the group have said they will formally announce the news in mid-November, reports the Sun.

“There has been a lot of speculation about the future of Little Mix, but it is now very clear that the end of the road has been reached,” one source told the newspaper.

“A date is set to announce the split. The upcoming tour is going to be a farewell to their fans.”

Their 2022 tour seems to be the last before they launch their solo careers. But let’s hope that it gets off to a better start than former bandmates Jesy Nelson.

Nelson’s debut single ‘Boyz’ dropped last week and was met with instant criticism from fans. But amid people branding the song ‘trash’ a more serious issue arose.

Nelson has been accused of ‘blackfishing’ before, but the issue was never more apparent than in her latest music video.

Nelson has been accused of wearing fake tan, wearing wigs, having fuller lips and even singing in “Blaccent” when delivering lines such as, “So ‘hood, so good, so damn taboo”. Fans were also concerned about the little to no difference between Nelson’s skin tone and rapper Nicki Minaj.

Minaj spoke out against the group, responding: “Sweetheart, take them text messages and shove it up your f***ing a**. Don’t try to come out and ruin anyone. Let her enjoy this time.

“If you was in this woman’s group and you ain’t taking about this sh** for 10 years, and as soon as you see she got a video come out with Nicki Minaj and Puffy, now you sending the stations text messages and all this sh*t […] print them text messages out, bust your a** open and shove it up your motherf***ing a**.”
