The ‘DNA’ hitmakers and their fellow ‘X Factor’ contestants were told by the ‘Diamonds’ star’s management team that they couldn’t speak to her when she was a guest performer on the UK show last year. Little Mix singer Jesy Nelson said: “We were on ‘The X Factor’ with Rihanna and Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga was amazing, but we didn’t get to speak to Rihanna.”
Her bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock added: “Her management wouldn’t let anybody meet her, but she walked past me and said, ‘Your hair is awesome!’ This was when I had my head half shaved, which I hated, so it cheered me up.” However, one star the group – which also features Perrie Edwards and Jade Thirlwall – did enjoy meeting was Kylie Minogue, though they admit they couldn’t stop staring at her famous butt. Jesy told this month’s issue of We Love Pop magazine: “We met Kylie at the BRITs. I kept looking at her bum because she’s got a really nice bottom.” -Femalefirst
