Little Mix call in lawyers and launch investigation after a series of never-before-heard songs leak online
THEY are currently busy working on their debut solo records but Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall and Perrie Edwards have now found themselves embroiled in an investigation regarding their time in Little Mix.
The Sun can exclusively reveal the Little Mix trio have been forced to call in a team of lawyers after a number of their previously unreleased songs were leaked onto the internet.
Bosses at the band’s label RCA have launched an investigation into the breach after concerns were raised about who the internal leak could be.
As well as a number of unfinished demos, one of the leaked tracks is a collaboration with Columbian superstar Maluma called Señorita.
Another is the band’s version of Sigala's Stay The Night which peaked at number 11 when it was eventually released in June with rising star Talia Mar.
Little Mix star Jesy Nelson - who quit the band last year - also appears on a number of the songs.
A source said: “The source of the leaks has become a huge concern for RCA who have launched an official investigation.
“It is frustrating as these songs were never meant to see the light of day.
“What RCA wants to know is who is leaking the songs - and why.
“Most of the demos and songs being leaked appear to have been recorded around 2017 when the girls were working on their fifth album, LM5.

“Random leaks happen all the time but with Little Mix it’s been constant for the best part of a month now.”
As the clips started to spread across social media, Jade told their fans that she was baffled about the leaks.
Replying to a fan who thought one demo was called Three Fake Friends, Jade clarified: “That song was actually called Pink Champagne. It was for LM5 - I don’t know how it leaked.
“Pink Champagne was the snipped that leaked for no reason but we move.”
