Leigh-Anne recently said that the ‘pressure and expectation’ that came from being in a successful girl band stopped her from ‘enjoying’ her work as a solo artist.
The former Little Mix star embarked upon her solo career in 2022 and admitted that she initially felt the weight of ‘impossible’ expectations.
After joining the group on the X-Factor, the former Pizza Hut waitress went on to have an impressive 19 top-ten singles and five number ones with the band.
She told Capital XTRA Breakfast: ‘The pressure is what stopped me enjoying it as much.
‘Obviously, coming from such a massive group and having the pressure to do just as well as that massive group did is kind of impossible to do overnight.
‘That took 10 years. It takes work. And also, I’m not doing music like the group did.
‘Like, I’ve gone down a different route, and I just think those expectations kind of like weighed on me and it was like, “This is just not fun!”‘
The singer said that as a solo artist, she wanted to make music without feeling like she was under the same kind of pressure she felt in a girl band.

Leigh-Anne recently shared a behind the scenes look as she got to work in the studio recording new music.
Captioning her Instagram carousel, she wrote: ‘Thinking about how much I can’t wait to release this now- we’re so fricken close.’
The OMG hitmaker struggled to contain her excitement ahead of releasing brand-new music, shortly after revealing she has left her record label Warner Music Group.
Leigh-Anne signed with Warner as a solo artist in 2022 and released her EP, No Hard Feelings, the following year.
But her solo career stalled after Warner ‘wouldn’t pay for a music video’ for her last single after she reportedly ‘failed to impress’ with her other tracks.
More than a year later, Leigh-Anne has revealed she is returning to music this summer – and it seems she is doing so independently with the help of Virgin.
In a new clip teasing the music, Leigh-Anne’s hand was seen beside a record player which had ‘Virgin Music Group’ written on it, suggesting she has made the move to the label – which works as a partner to independent artists.
Leigh-Anne appeared to confirm she had made the label switch in a voice note to fans on her Discord channel earlier this week as she discussed ‘the process of changing over’, and she replied ‘Let’s do this’ to Virgin when they commented hearts on her music announcement.
In a further hint at her becoming an independent artist, Leigh-Anne captioned the music teaser clip: ‘Control looks good on me…’

Then, Leigh-Anne shared a collection of snaps from the studio as well as a selfie where she sported a cheesy grin. She said the selfie was ‘what freedom looks like’.
She also appears to not follow Warner’s Head of Artists and Repertoire Karen Kwak on Instagram. It is unknown if she followed her beforehand.
Seemingly confirming her change of label on Discord, Leigh-Anne could be heard saying: ‘Seriously guys I’ve been wanting to tell so much what was happening but yeah obviously the process of changing over has been… yeah that’s what has obviously taken time.
‘But yeah obviously we are here, need you guys to stay with me, it is coming. But i just wanted you guys to know it is going to be a Leigh-Anne summer and y’all better get ready.’
MailOnline has approached representatives for Leigh-Anne for comment.
Little Mix announced their split in December 2021, when they revealed the trio would be taking a break following 10 ‘amazing’ years together.
