Ex-member Jesy Nelson, who quit the band in
December, joins singers Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Perrie Edwards and
Jade Thirlwall in having their wax likenesses created based on
the band's 2019 "Bounce Back" music video.
The group shot to fame after winning the British version of
talent show "The X Factor" in 2011 and has since scored several
UK no.1 hits, including "Black Magic" and "Shout Out to My Ex".
Its members started working with Madame Tussauds in early 2020,
months before Nelson announced her departure.
"When that news did come through, we all collectively decided
that it was really best to carry on with our plans to
immortalise the 'Bounce Back' video, and of course include Jesy
in that line-up," said Claire Treacy, senior PR manager at
Madame Tussauds in London.
"Jesy is such a huge part of Little Mix, of everything that
they've achieved over 10 years."
