The X Factor: Little Mix slam their look on the show… “We looked very cheap and tacky”

They're a bit more fresh-faced these days...

We’ve all been through slightly dodgy fashion moments in our lives, and Little Mix are no exception.

The band have spoken out about their look when they started out on The X Factor back in 2011, with Jesy Nelson branding their style: “Cheap and tacky.”

Speaking on This Morning as part of a fashion and beauty Q&A, the group – made up of Jesy, Jade Thirlwall, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards – laughed about their makeup choices over the years.

Speaking about starting out, Perrie revealed: “We went from really young, fresh girls – not really wearing much makeup, maybe a little bit of foundation on the lip when it was in – to then being really heavy and looking way older. We looked way beyond our years!”

Jesy interrupted to add: “Very cheap and tacky!” Perrie scolded her, saying: “Jes! It was the style back then!”

She continued: “We just felt more secure with lots and lots of makeup on.
