Ladies! Hello.
Hello. So nice to see you.
First of all, I can't start interviewing you now without getting the Gail impression again.
You're going to ruin your make-up. It's not. It's funny.
I think it's funny. You're brilliant.
So having your own make-up range is sort of like every girl's dream. What was your reaction
when you found out you were getting a make-up range?
We were so excited. We can't believe it's here! I know. In the flesh. Look at it, it
looks so beautiful. I know.
We, Little Mix, absolutely love make-up, like we're all about make-up. We love experimenting
with it and trying different looks, so to be able to have our own make-up and show everyone
our key looks, it's just lovely, isn't it?
Mmmhmm it's really exciting.
Coolest thing ever.
Yeah, it's every girl's dream, isn't it? To have your own make-up.
And now, like, just think, it's just weird. We've got our own lipstick. Like. It's just
crazy. No more mixing ten colours of lippy to try and match the colour. It's right there
in one stick. Yeah, it's just bam. It makes life easier.
That'd be so cool. So if you could go back in a wonderful time machine to your pre-Little
Mix selves and give yourself a make-up tip. What would you say?
A make-up for us, like back in the day? I know what I would say, I would say. Eyelashes.
Don't pile it on as much. Because I used to have really bad skin was I was younger and
I would slap on the foundation so much and like...
But it's a vicious circle, isn't it? Exactly. Because you feel like you cover them to hide
them, but then you get more ones then you cover them and uh... Can I just say, like
if you do have bad skin, just let it breathe and try to get rid of that rather than trying
to cover it up. Like, it's not worth it
Yeah, I think eyelashes. Like sometimes when I look at pictures of me like awhile ago and
I was wearing certain eyelashes. They just look horrendous. So you got to find ones that
match you, really.
Oh,emmm...
I don't know if I have any, if I'm honest. You're just flawless. All the whole time.
That's what I mean. I didn't really.... I didn't really wear any make-up. Oh you mean
when were little? I thought you just meant like...
Before you were famous and you had...
Ohhhhh. Before we were famous, I didn't really wear that much make-up. None of us really
wore any. I used to actually wear the collection clear mascara because my mom wasn't really
keen on us wearing that much make-up, so I used to put it on my eyebrows, put it on my
eyelashes and then a bit of lip balm so I used to think that I was really cool.
I would've told myself to do my eyebrows a bit more because they changed all of our faces
I think, now that we've got eyebrows. Yeah... Because when I was on the X Factor, like our
first audition, we've got no eyebrows. No yeah, we dont' have any eyebrows. Did I? I
think I had eyebrows. I've always had bushy eyebrows.
Perrie, I think it was mainly me and you. Mine were sort of blonde. My brother used
to call me u-no-brow. Hahahaha.
He did. You no-brow. He thought it was really clever. Ahaha.
He's an ass.
And obviously, make-up is all about confidence, style. You're expressing yourself. What is
your top confidence and style tip for your fans of young girls?
I think if you feel happy in yourself and you feel confident, that definitely shows.
Like, it makes someone prettier, I think, when someone is happy and confident. It really
is. Like 100 percent. I completely believe that because like, just from us doing photo
shoots. If we have been in a bad mood or something bad's happened, and we feel a bit down, you
can really tell in our faces. Even when you're trying to fake it. You can tell that you don't
look as radiant. I don't think.
You should just be happy in your own style, like everyone has different styles. We even
have different styles, and like we just rock it with confidence. Then you can't really
go wrong.
What about Gail Platt? Has she got style?
Haha. Even Gail Platt has got style.
Yeah, for a middle aged woman. Nice hairdo.
Now we enter my favourite section. We're calling this the worst questions ever. Right. These
are make-up themed horrible questions.
So, in the group, when embarrassing things happen, who is the biggest BLUSHER?
Oh, that's a good question! We don't really get embarrassed, do we? Uh. Well... Because
we're very open with everything. Do you know what I mean? Yeah. Like we're very open with
everything. Like all our fans and the majority of people would know everything about us, like embarrassing things. And like
things that maybe people would get embarrassed by, they don't. They'll happily fart in front
of people and like burp and say when they need to do number two.
There's nothing really... Who would you say?
No, I can't even answer that. Even in the case if one of us were to fall over, I think
we'd get up and laugh at ourselves. Like just probably laugh. We wouldn't be like oh my
gosh, I fell down. We'd be like wow did you see us fall over? Yeah, I think that's just
the way we are. That's just what kind of girls we are. We don't really.... We're not afraid
to take the mickey out of ourselves, basically. No.
Girls. Well, on that theme then, can you think of a recent situation you've had to GLOSS
over?
Ohhhh.... Oh my gosh. As in like an embarrassing moment, like... We've had to gloss over. Ohhhhh.
Can it just be like ahahaha laughing it off kind of thing? Ohhhh. Oh oh. Well, actually
I can't really say it. Sorry.
What? No, it was really embarrassing so. I'm not going to say, no. I think I know what
you're talking about.
Oh, that's another one. Oh, okay. She's got a few that she would like to gloss over.
Things always happen to me, like it's really bad. She walked into a telly once when we
were doing a gig. I didn't gloss it over though.
No, you didn't. You could have cried. You should have cried.
Oh, I... We were doing a running race. Oh ho ho. Oh! It was horrible. We were doing
a running race... Jesy doesn't like to lose, bear in mind. She will not... It was the sack
race against another band, another boyband. And I was so determined to win, I just literally
went up in the air and landed on my knees. It hurt so much. She skidded. You were going
like this. It was a sack race, and you were going like this with your arms. But yeah,
and it hurt so much. You know when you just laugh and pretend it didn't hurt? And then,
after my whole knee swelled up and it was really bad and I couldn't dance or anything.
But she did get up really quick. I was really impressed. Yeah, because it was embarrassing.
But then they stick it on YouTube as a slow mo. Yeah, and I knew they would do that, but it's fine.
I can look back now and laugh. Yeah, exactly, you can. It's funny. Bless her. That was a
glosser. A glossy moment.
It was a good job we didn't fancy any of them, so... There you go.
If you could have one mantra or saying as the FOUNDATION of your band, what would it be?
If you could have one what?
One belief, something you believe in. A saying.
Oh. Always be yourself. Yes. I think that's a good one. Yeah.
Out of all of you, who is the MASCARA?
Ohhhhhh... I like that. I like that. Nest carer.
I think we're all very caring. I think we all take our turns. Yes, definitely. It depends
on the situation. For certain things that you go to Jesy for. There's certain things
you go to Leigh-Anne for. We're all very different in like advice and stuff like that, but we're
all very comforting as well. Yeah. But when we're all together, I think that's when it's
lovely, like if one of us is upset and like. We really stick together. Yeah. We've got
three other girls to have our backs, so that's really nice.
That's so nice. Not like that poor girl on X Factor this week.
I know. Well, they clearly were not her friends, were they? That really annoyed me, and it
was horrible when you saw her in the room and she was going like you were supposed to
be my best friends, and you say that I'm going to lose you if I do this. Imagine. How awful
would you be as a person if went if you do this and you go and achieve your dreams and you do
really well in life, I'm not going to be your friend. How twisted is that? They're not really
friends, are they? No. If she hadn't had done it, then the rest of their lives they'd think
if we let her do that, would she be a star?
But these are types of girls who would be like oh, I feel guilty. They're like haha
well if we're not doing it, you're not doing it either. I think that's awful.
She's so nice too. Can she just join Little Mix?
Awwwww... She can. She can if she wants. I really like her. She's gorgeous. She's lovely.
Final bad make-up question. Dun dun dun. Who is the most LIPPY?
Lippy. Jesy! Jesy does not hold back. She's so funny. She's just hilarious. She says it
how it is. I quite like that about her, to be honest, but sometimes I'm like maybe we
should just cover it sometimes.
I think Leigh-Anne is a little bit. No, I don't think I'm lippy. I think I just... Word
vomit. Word vomit. I say things that I shouldn't say all the time. But you just, bam, I don't
care. And I love that about you. Yeah. Well, thank you.
I'm trying to think of situations.
Jess does it in interviews, so if we get asked a question, instead of beating around the
bush, she'll be like yeah, I don't like or she'll be like no, I think it's really stupid
to be honest. We'll be like. And then Leigh-Anne, on the other hand, will do it in front of
people. Like if somebody is in the room, and she's not meant to say something or not meant
to say something in front of that person, she'll say it and she'll be like... Like.
This is the thing. I'll go no Leigh-Anne, it's fine. It's fine. And she goes... Why
are you winking at me for?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Or I go, hey Leigh-Anne, don't look now, but over... Where? Where?
Where?
I said, don't look now! She's so dozy, but it's so cute. I'm oblivious to everything,
but... She's adorable. She gets away with it because she's such a nice person and if
she was anyone else I'd have to kill her. Just keep glossing over it. Gloss over it.
We now have questions from Twitter.
Have you been working with Nicole Roberts?
Yeaaah. I didn't know that. She's lush. We worked with her on the last album as well.
She wrote one of our favourite songs on the last album. Yeah, she's amazing.
Yeah, it's really cool like having someone from a girl band as well.
She tells us about things she did back in the day, and stuff we don't know about. Do you know what I mean?
So she's got a lot of experience, hasn't she? So she helps us out a bit.
Yeah, it's really nice to get advice from someone who's been in the industry for a long time. But she's lovely.
Nicola Roberts. That's pretty cool. And she introduced me to the best Japanese as well in London. Ooh, it's so good!
Do you have a message for your fans about the upcoming album?
Ooh, yes. Be excited. Yup, you're going to love it. I know you are. It's just more mature,
more R&B. We've prepared more vocal harmonies. We've all stepped it up individually. Still
productions are amazing this year on our songs. They've really stepped it up. And as they
heard, we did a little acappella section of one of the songs called Little Me, and that
was based on our fans and stuff like that, like we would tell ourselves like a few years
back, like just be confident, be yourself, that kind of thing. So I think the fans are
going to love certain songs on the album because it's for them as well. Yeah, I think they're
going to love it. Yeah.
Any cheeky collaborations you can tell us about?
Not as of yet. We hope so though. You never know. You'll have to wait and see. What's
going to happen.
This is from a boy. He says the Single move. He says how should a guy move?
However, he wants to move. The song is about basically about letting yourself go and feeling
free and just like you can move however you want. There's two sides, I'd say to the to
Move. One is basically yeah, about guys who think they're too cool for school in the club
and just... I, I just think when you're a club, just let yourself go and have fun. And
also.. Move can also be about a guy making a move. Yup. Yes. And you're not waiting.
The girl does not make the move. We're old school. Yeah, we're very old school. We like
the boys to make the move. Exactly. If we're smiling at you and we're like, hi. You come
over. It means come over. Yes. Know what I mean? Make your move. If you wink... You can
do the wink. You can get away with the wink. We can't do it. Oh and that. You go like that,
that's why. Well, how would you do it? You just go. Really?
I see things like that in movies.
Oh no, I couldn't. I probably would be like hey... And just look like a freak. You would
get away with it because you're really sexy. Oh, and you're not? No. I play on the cute
thing instead like, instead of the like. You can get away with the cute. I can't do it.
Yeah, I'm not cute so.
I'm really like. I can't let a guy know that I like them. I find it really hard to like...
Do you know what I mean? Like you can wink at them and stuff. I don't...
Have you ever seen Leigh-Anne flirt? Yes. Have you not? Yes. I have.
Actually, yes I have. Yeah, yeah, yeah I have. Yeah yeah yeah. It's normally when she's got
a straw, and she's looking like. Like that.
Oh yeah, and... What? What did you just say? What do I do?
You use the straw as your weapon of attraction.
I see with your straw and you're like... And you look down and you've got your straw. Then
you hold your glass, and you're like yeah. That's what she did. She's like very smooth.
Smooth. I think Leigh-Anne's a smooth criminal.
Ooh, this is a weird one. If you could be any other person in the band, who would you pick and why?
Oooh, a bit of all of us. Yeah, definitely. I think we've all got very nice things about
us. I'd have... I'd be Perrie so I could have her blue eyes. I'd be Jesy...
Is that all I'm worth? What?! Me eyes? I'm not a nice person. No you're a lovely one.
I'm just saying about... Like things on people. I was going to say Jesy's... Oh great. And
I would say... Oh my God! No. And I'd say Jade's hair. See? Eyes, boobs, hair. You're
one sexy lady.
See? Word vomit. I told ya.
Someone said, has this got you thinking about wedding make-up?
Well, actually. She's going to have purple lipstick. No, but now that you said it. I'm
going to have to look into it now. Make a collection of wedding collection make up.
That would be good.
Do you think you can wear purple lipstick to it?
Why not? Yeah, but I can wear me smoky eyes and my lip gloss. It depends on if you have
a cool dress. I want a vintage dress, I think, so purple lip could go. Yeah.
I think purple lip would go.
And quickly, last question.
If you were to do a massive world tour, who would be your dream support act?
Oooh. As in... Well, if they were support act, they wouldn't be...
How about... Well, I don't know if you know them yet, but there's a boy group called Mic Lawry.
And they're amazing. They're like an up and coming group and they're really good, so them.
And then Rough Copy could also. I was just thinking Rough Copy, and I knew you were going to say it so that why I didn't.
Rough Copy and MIC Lawry. What about The Vamps?
They're cute. Aw, they're cute. Yeah, they're really sweet.
They're a boy band. They're a bit like... Is it indie? They're quite cool, aren't they?
Like pop, but cooler. Like sort of Indie. Really cute. Check it out.
Well, thanks for talking to us. Thank you! It was so much fun. Awww...
