Biography
Little Mix (previously Rhythmix) are the 2011 winners of The X Factor, and the first ever group to win the grand prize. Their debut single, a cover of the Damien Rice ballad Cannonball was released digitally the morning after their win. The song was produced by Fazer, from the band N-Dubz. The lead single from their debut album, Wings, was released on August 19, 2012 and reached number 1 in the official UK charts. Their second single to be released was DNA, which was also the title of their debut album. The song DNA shows a slightly darker side of the girlband.
The band consists of Essex former-barmaid Jesy Nelson (20), High Wycombe former-waitress Leigh-Anne Pinnock (19), and South Shields former-students Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall (both 18). The group was formed at the 2011 X Factor bootcamp in London from singers who auditioned as soloists.
Jason Joel Desrouleaux (born September 21, 1989), better known by his stage name Jason Derulo (an alternate spelling of his name, which he pronounces English pronunciation: /dəˈɹuloʊ/), is an American singer, songwriter and dancer. Since the start of his career as a solo recording artist in 2009, Derulo has sold over 50 million singles and has achieved eleven career platinum singles, including \"Wiggle\", \"Talk Dirty\", \"In My Head\", and \"Whatcha Say\".
