Did you know that Little Mix actually wrote the song “Pretty Girls,” which was recorded by Britney Spears and Iggy Azalea? Well, now they are explaining why they gave up the track.
“We’ve been away a while because we wrote an album, sat with the record label and we thought, ‘Nope, it’s not good enough’,” group member Jesy Nelson in an interview with The Sun. “We recorded a whole album but we’re perfectionists and knew we could do better. So we scrapped it and started again.”
“We wrote it with Maegan Cottone, who we’ve written a lot of this album with,” Jade Thirlwall added. “We loved the song but it wasn’t really for us so we put it out there and, lo and behold, Britney wanted it.”
DO YOU THINK that Little Mix should have recorded “Pretty Girls?”
The 24-year-old rapper joined Britney Spears on stage to perform their single “Pretty Girls.” While the event happened in the MGM Grand Garden Arena, the ladies performed in Britney‘s AXIS Theater at Planet Hollywood.
The 24-year-old rapper was also joined on the carpet by her “Pretty Girls” collaborator Britney Spears, who brought along her boyfriend Charlie Ebersol.
The ladies will be hitting the stage tonight for the first live performance of their new single.
FYI: Britney is wearing a Yousef Al-Jasmi gown, Giuseppe Zanotti shoes and clutch, and Neil Lane jewels.
