Jade Thirlwall admits Little Mix were tipsy when recording their sixth studio album Confetti

They have just released their sixth studio album Confetti. 

And Little Mix star jade Thirlwall admits the band had been drinking when they recorded their vocals for the album. 

The 27-year old said the girl group – including Jesy Nelson, 29, Perrie Edwards, 27, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, 29 – brought the night out to the studio during the boozy recording session. 

She said they ‘got a bit merry’ and recorded a lot of songs in one day at the beginning of making Confetti. 

The singer admitted that it was this day when hit songs Break Up Song and Holiday were recorded. 

Jade told The Sun on Sunday: ‘One of my favourite memories of making Confetti was right in the beginning of the process. We were in the studio with Kamille (their songwriter) who’s basically our fifth member. 

‘We’d had quite a bit to drink. It was basically a night out but in the studio. We got a bit merry and we churned out so many songs in one day. 

‘That’s when Break Up Song was born and Holiday and a few other songs which didn’t make the cut.’  

On Thursday, Jade revealed her mum rang her after the music video for their single Sweet Melody was released and scolded her for ‘having her a**e out’.   

Jade said due to gorging on pies throughout lockdown she had gained some new curves and her mother was the first to point it out.  

The Wings hitmaker showed off her peachy derriere in the sheer thong bodysuit which she teamed with fishnet tights for the music video. 

Jade told The Sun: ‘Me mam called us once the video dropped. She was like, “Jade, firstly, why have you got your a*** out? Secondly, where has that a*** come from?”

‘She was like, “What have you been eating in lockdown, hun?” I was like, “It just came out of nowhere”.’

At the beginning of this week, Little Mix became the most successful group in UK history, after their latest track Sweet Melody debuted at the top of the charts on Sunday. 

They now bear the honour of having an impressive six number one hits, after their single soared straight to the top of the Official Big Top 40. 

Before the weekend, the stars were tied with Clean Bandit and fellow X Factor alum One Direction, who each have five number one hits. 

First topping the charts with their 2012 single Wings, the group have enjoyed the same success with Black Magic (2015), Shout Out To My Ex (2018), Woman Like Me (2018), and Break Up Song (2020).
