Jesy Nelson's solo career - BOYZ ft. Nicki Minaj out now + not very good + problematic + DROPPED + now white + preggers + reality show

I think this whole thing will

probably she would have to apologise given what the others have intimated about her. I'm not sure she's that self aware though.
 
Yes, I can't imagine a reconciliation will be easy if Jesy goes in with a "I'm sure there are things we would  all do differently".

Any kind of soft suggestion that Leigh-Anne's upset wasn't valid, or that Nicki Minaj isn't a bit of a tit, would presumably be met with rather short shrift.
 
I feel that it would be Perrie that would reach out to Jesy from the little bits they have said over the last couple of years.
 
Yep. Her song about Jesy ends like this:

Maybe one day we'll make it better
Maybe one day we'll stand together
I hope one day we'll share the same
One day we'll share the same view
 
I don’t mean to be sour but I don’t want Jesy back, I like them as a three. Doesn’t mean I don’t wish Jesy well and hope she finds some success but not with them
I agree. She really isn’t needed
 
I'm not a Jesy hater at all, but I agree they worked really well as a three
 
I saw an interview Brian McFadden did with Nicky Byrne a while ago. They seem to be on perfectly good terms these days, but Brian mentioned he didn't feel it would make sense for him to tour with Westlife as he left the group so early into their run. (Wouldn't surprise me if that was actually a choice they've made rather than him!)

Either way, obviously Jesy was with Little Mix until much closer to the end, so I think there'd be more demand there for a full lineup revival. But I equally feel the other three could probably play the exact same venues as a trio and do just fine.
 
It would shift the dynamic too much.

A lot of Little Mix's appeal (deliberately or not) was on the surface-level "sisterhood" they seemed to have. The trio could definitely still get away with portraying that. Jesy wouldn't be believable, at least not now.

The Geru / Spice Girls split, however fraught, never became as publicly nasty as the Jesy / Leigh-Anne / Minaj fall-out.

Robbie / Take That was a little more hostile, but it took them 15 years to set it right, a lot of very open and public dialogue. And I don't think Take That were ever as heavily reliant on the "bezzie mates 4ever" card as the girl groups were often forced to be.

It's also worth noting that most of the other pop group implosions were due to egos and trivial personality clashes. They could be papered over with a "we're adults now". The blackfishing however is a much more sensitive and core issue to walk back from. Even if she somehow won the girls over, I can imagine some of their fanbase protesting without Jesy accepting her problematic behaviour, which there's been little sign of.

In her publicity interviews for this documentary she’s really walking back the anti-LM sentiment from the past and “never know”-ing a reunion tour :D don’t think she’d get much of a say in such a thing.
 
Was the Little Mix thing nasty? I remember the girls being purposely tight lipped about the whole thing and Jesy making some veiled passive aggressive comments (and then the Nicki Minaj debacle) but that all got swept under quite quickly when it could quite easily have escalated. The girls wanted no part of being known for their drama.

On a scale of 0 to All Saints, I'd put them above Girls Aloud and Spice Girls but below Take That and significantly below En Vogue and the Sugababes...
 
I think it probably was one of the nastiest of them all behind closed doors. We didn’t get to even hear or see even half of it I think.
 
The Nicki Minaj Instagram live was quite distasteful, and on the flip side, there was that influencer who posted screenshots of Leigh-Anne allegedly encouraging him to post about Jesy 'blackfishing', so while I think they've kept it respectful on the surface you do get the feeling they weren't too keen on one another.

The fanbase have taken great glee in editing Jesy out of existence in quite ingenious ways but I reckon they'd probably get over it if they all announced a tour.
 
All it will take is Jesy springing up and landing out of sync with the others in a synchronised toaster jump onto the stage and it will all be forgotten (or suddenly seen as part of the fan fiction fun of it all).
 
Well we have to remember that these girls were thrown together on a talent show and while they spent the best part of nine years together, it doesn't necessarily mean that they were friends. They seemed close according to the public but I think things got to the point that they couldn’t continue anymore as a foursome.

With Perrie definitely and Jade possibly releasing songs about Jesy, which were rather brutal, I think it would be years before any talk of a reunion, and her current situation makes that impossible anyway.
 
The fact the other three continue to be close and support each other speaks volumes
 
I can't imagine a less likely reunion tbh. I doubt their feelings about Jesy are particularly complex - they probably all hate her, especially the two people of colour in the group. the lyrics of Natural at Disaster are pretty brutal. she doesn't seem like someone who even has the capacity to understand that she did something quite wrong there.
 
Oh they're absolutely going to reunite when the cash runs out in 2035 and Jesyca is going to turn up to the press conference in a kente cloth.

The other three could get a great reception for a reunion if they time it well. But it's tricky to get right - too soon and people haven't missed you, loo late and everyone has moved on.
 
Don't tell the press, but I've actually stumbled upon a timer that seems to reveal the exact moment negotiations for the reunion tour are set to begin in earnest...

I know you think that you’re all that
It’ll be so sweet when you crawl back
But it’s too late now

 
Anyone watched the reality show? Documentary? Whatever it is.

I’ve only seen clips on TikTok but she’s saying another of the girls (who she won’t name) had said they wanted to finish and the last tour was planned as a finale farewell then covid happened.

Goes on to say she just felt everything was fake from then on because they carried on but she felt it was over. Not saying there isn’t perhaps some truth to it but why would they carry on if there was a perfect opportunity to end it when Jesy went… I’d say a member wanted out because of Jesy and when she went everything improved
 
I watched 2 or 3 episodes while working this afternoon and I had to turn it off. I'm sorry but she seems really dumb (not even in a bimbo way), stunted in maturity and developmentally challenged to the point I would say she's a vulnerable adult. She even says something similar about herself, that when she won the Xfactor she stopped growing as a person, being challenged and is stuck at that age. She's well suited to her 25 year old student partner that way.
 
  • Wow

I really don’t like the sound of her voice so I’m happy just reading the main takeaways on Twitter
 
I watched a 12 minute interview with her on This Morning and I have to say I found her to be highly irritating

What a terrible show as well - just inane platitudes exchanged back at forth. Not a single question asked about Diddy being in jail, Nicki’s Trump collaboration, Perrie being a bit of a flop, her own flops
 
Sounds like a vanity project with very little self awareness and to be honest, that’s exactly what I’d expect from her
