Two of the biggest pop stars in the universe

0:00:020:00:04

are about to go into battle.

0:00:040:00:06

The popalicious Little Mix versus the super cool Rizzle Kicks.

0:00:060:00:10

There can only be one winner so stay right here.

0:00:100:00:13

I'm Amberley Lobo and this is Pop Slam!

0:00:130:00:17

Going head-to-head we've got...

0:00:320:00:34

..the ladies of Little Mix.

0:00:360:00:39

Perrie, Jesy, Leigh-Anne and Jade.

0:00:390:00:43

They are the pop sensation who will totally make you want to move.

0:00:450:00:48

# So when we move You move... #

0:00:480:00:50

But how will they fare going against...

0:00:500:00:53

# Mamma do the hump Mamma do the hump, hump... #

0:00:530:00:56

..Rizzle Kicks?

0:00:560:00:57

They are the uber cool duo made up of Jordan and Harley.

0:00:590:01:03

These guys are so hot, they're practically on fire.

0:01:050:01:09

# Mamma do the hump Mamma do the hump, hump

0:01:090:01:11

# Mamma won't you please let me do the hump, hump... #

0:01:110:01:14

This Pop Slam is going to be off the hook!

0:01:140:01:16

So whose team are you on? Team Little Mix or team Rizzle Kicks?

0:01:160:01:21

I'll be hitting the road to find out everything there is to know

0:01:230:01:26

about their superstar lives to see who deserves

0:01:260:01:28

to win the coolest prize in pop - the Ambo.

0:01:280:01:30

There's only one way to win the Ambo,

0:01:300:01:33

and that's by gaining as many of my Ambo points as possible.

0:01:330:01:37

I'll be dishing them out over three slamming rounds of poposity

0:01:370:01:42

where I meet the people who knew the stars back in the day...

0:01:420:01:45

..then I check out how hard they've been working...

0:01:470:01:50

..and, finally, I scrutinise their style.

0:01:510:01:53

All before the big moment.

0:01:530:01:56

And the winner of the Ambo is...

0:01:560:01:59

Now, you might not agree with the outcome and, if not, that's OK.

0:01:590:02:02

Get onto the CBBC website and have your say.

0:02:020:02:05

Who do you think's going to win?

0:02:050:02:07

Little Mix, look at them. They're so cool.

0:02:070:02:09

Their hair's pretty, their shoes are pretty. So jealous.

0:02:090:02:11

But then the Rizzle Kicks, I mean, they're so cute

0:02:110:02:14

and they look like they have so much fun.

0:02:140:02:16

Well, there's only one way to solve it. It's time for Pop Slam!

0:02:160:02:20

Round One, Pop Potential.

0:02:240:02:26

This is all about how our stars made it big.

0:02:260:02:29

# Let's get down with the trumpets Let's get down with the trumpets... #

0:02:310:02:35

Nowadays the boys from Rizzle Kicks

0:02:350:02:37

are riding sky-high on their hip-hop pop success.

0:02:370:02:41

But before all that, Jordan and Harley were right here, in Brighton.

0:02:410:02:46

# Mamma told me not to waste my life...#

0:02:460:02:48

Today Little Mix are one of the biggest girl bands in the world

0:02:480:02:51

but, before that, they were four normal girls

0:02:510:02:54

growing up across England who dreamt of being singing superstars.

0:02:540:02:59

# Cos wings are made to fly... #

0:02:590:03:04

How did Little Mix and Rizzle Kicks become the supercool megastars

0:03:040:03:08

they are today? I'm going to find out.

0:03:080:03:11

First up, Little Mix.

0:03:110:03:13

# These wings are made to fly... #

0:03:130:03:17

# Change, change your life Take it all... #

0:03:170:03:19

We all know X Factor brought Little Mix together

0:03:190:03:22

and it's pretty hard to believe the girls

0:03:220:03:25

with so much chemistry had never met before.

0:03:250:03:28

# Change, change your life Take it all... #

0:03:280:03:31

These girls were born stars.

0:03:310:03:35

Leigh-Anne and Jesy grew up in the south of England

0:03:350:03:37

and both briefly went

0:03:370:03:39

to the world-famous Sylvia Young School in London.

0:03:390:03:42

Perrie was also studying performing arts at Newcastle College.

0:03:420:03:47

Which brings us to Jade who, like Perrie,

0:03:470:03:50

grew up in the north-east of England.

0:03:500:03:52

# So remember we were driving, driving in your car

0:03:520:03:56

# Speed so fast felt like I was drunk... #

0:03:560:03:59

Here she is before she was famous singing with her friend, Tom.

0:03:590:04:02

# Arm felt nice wrapped round my shoulder

0:04:020:04:05

# And I had a feeling that I belonged... #

0:04:050:04:08

I tracked down Tom in South Shields whilst he was busking.

0:04:080:04:13

Well, if it's good enough for Jade...

0:04:130:04:16

'I want goss so he's going to get an interruption.'

0:04:160:04:19

# You need me, man, I don't need you

0:04:190:04:22

# You need me, man, I don't need you You need me, man... #

0:04:220:04:25

-I'm just going to stop you there. Keen for a chat?

-Yeah.

0:04:250:04:28

OK. Tom, loved it. So much fun.

0:04:280:04:30

-I understand you actually used to play with Jade?

-I did, yeah.

0:04:300:04:34

For a little bit, yeah.

0:04:340:04:35

# I remember we were driving... #

0:04:350:04:37

So how does it feel to know someone you've performed with,

0:04:370:04:40

one of your really good friends,

0:04:400:04:42

has gone on to become this massive megastar?

0:04:420:04:44

Can't believe it. Honestly, can't believe it.

0:04:440:04:47

All the time we used to sing she was amazing

0:04:470:04:49

but I never thought she would ever get this big, to be honest.

0:04:490:04:52

She's still really down-to-earth. She's still just a friend, really.

0:04:520:04:55

She's still exactly how she was but a lot more people know her.

0:04:550:04:58

Did she have a big stage presence when she was performing with you?

0:05:000:05:04

She was always quite shy, really.

0:05:040:05:06

She always just kind of kept herself to herself

0:05:060:05:08

but now she's just let herself go.

0:05:080:05:11

# Tell her to speak up Tell her to shout out... #

0:05:110:05:13

So Jade was strutting her stuff at gigs in the north-east.

0:05:130:05:18

And Leigh-Anne, Perrie and Jesy

0:05:180:05:20

were trying to break into the music industry.

0:05:200:05:23

So it was no surprise that in 2011 they all decided to audition

0:05:230:05:27

for the biggest show on TV, the X Factor.

0:05:270:05:30

I don't know if you remember

0:05:320:05:33

but all four girls wanted to be solo singers.

0:05:330:05:36

Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be.

0:05:360:05:38

They were not chosen to go beyond Boot Camp as individuals.

0:05:380:05:43

But they were given a lifeline

0:05:450:05:47

and put together to form a four-piece girl group.

0:05:470:05:51

# I'm gonna miss you like a child misses their blanket... #

0:05:510:05:56

I met them in Mykonos in the judges' homes

0:05:560:05:59

when they'd just been put together.

0:05:590:06:01

They were so shy, they were really, really nervous.

0:06:010:06:05

# And big girls don't cry. #

0:06:050:06:10

Watching them progress from what they were like at the judges' homes

0:06:100:06:14

to what they were like by the end of the show was amazing.

0:06:140:06:18

It was, like, the kind of confidence and strength that they found

0:06:180:06:21

throughout the show was so great to see.

0:06:210:06:24

It was like a completely different act by the final.

0:06:240:06:28

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:06:280:06:31

On December 11th, 2011,

0:06:330:06:36

Little Mix won the X Factor.

0:06:360:06:38

# What's it going to be... #

0:06:380:06:40

They were the first group ever to win the competition.

0:06:420:06:46

I'm going to predict, this time next year,

0:06:460:06:49

this is going to be the biggest girl band in the UK by a mile.

0:06:490:06:53

Have three Ambo points for winning the biggest competition on TV.

0:06:550:06:59

# Stones taught me to fly... #

0:06:590:07:04

Their winners single was a cover of Damien Rice's Cannonball,

0:07:050:07:09

and it went straight in at number one in the charts,

0:07:090:07:13

becoming the fastest selling single of 2011.

0:07:130:07:17

That's an awesome achievement. Have another three Ambo points.

0:07:170:07:22

# When you know that you just don't know... #

0:07:220:07:25

That must have been a life-changing moment for the four girls

0:07:270:07:30

but while they were just getting to know each other,

0:07:300:07:33

our next act had been friends for years.

0:07:330:07:35

# I can remember that when I was a little youth

0:07:350:07:38

# I wanted to fly around the world making a new life... #

0:07:380:07:41

Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule

0:07:410:07:44

both lived on the south coast of England in Brighton.

0:07:440:07:47

# Back when I was younger

0:07:470:07:49

# I wanted to be everything on the planet... #

0:07:490:07:53

Before they hit the big time they were two young boys

0:07:530:07:56

who were both developing a love for music, particularly hip-hop.

0:07:560:08:00

# When I was a youngster...

0:08:000:08:02

It's at this place that Jordan and Harley met, AudioActive.

0:08:020:08:06

If you're an upcoming pop star, this place is amazing.

0:08:060:08:09

It's sort of like a youth club.

0:08:090:08:11

You can sing, dance, beatbox, rap,

0:08:110:08:14

which is exactly what I'm going to do.

0:08:140:08:16

We bring it from the darkness

0:08:160:08:18

And we tackle the board like we're using magic markers...

0:08:180:08:21

One of the guys who teaches rap here is Tom.

0:08:210:08:24

He taught Jordan and Harley how to rap back in the day

0:08:240:08:27

and I've caught up with him to get the lowdown on the boys.

0:08:270:08:31

What was your first impression when he saw the boys in the classroom?

0:08:310:08:35

I can always remember Jordan as being quite hyperactive

0:08:350:08:38

and very noticeable in the room.

0:08:380:08:39

He was always either arguing or making jokes

0:08:390:08:42

and he wasn't quiet. That's for sure.

0:08:420:08:44

Did he just have a big mouth on him?

0:08:440:08:46

Very much so, yes. Yes. He was very hyperactive.

0:08:460:08:50

# When I was a youngster, youngster When I was a youngster... #

0:08:500:08:52

Harley was a bit quieter in those days.

0:08:520:08:55

He was always the cooler one, to be honest.

0:08:550:08:57

Harley used to rap a lot more than, which might surprise some people.

0:08:570:08:59

He used to be kind of a grime MC and be bang into it.

0:08:590:09:02

# Stuck in your pocket in your feathers while you sleep... #

0:09:060:09:10

How do you reckon AudioActive helped shape what they've become today?

0:09:100:09:14

We always really push them to be themselves

0:09:140:09:17

and they kind of made their subject matter very personal and fun,

0:09:170:09:21

and just stuck to their true personalities.

0:09:210:09:24

I think that's what AudioActive always tries to push.

0:09:240:09:26

People have always got their unique angle,

0:09:260:09:29

it's just trying to pull it out of them, really,

0:09:290:09:31

not try to be something but just being themselves and projecting that.

0:09:310:09:36

# Stood in the woodlands gonna set fire to the trees, who wouldn't? #

0:09:360:09:39

Tom, I'm going to cut to the chase. I want in.

0:09:390:09:41

I heard there's a class on today. Is there room for one more?

0:09:410:09:44

-Drop in, everyone's welcome. Yeah, get involved.

-Let's get involved.

0:09:440:09:47

Get out there, let's go.

0:09:470:09:50

'I've gate-crashed a rap class with wannabe rappers Harry and Blake.

0:09:500:09:54

'This is what Jordan and Harley would've done back in the day.'

0:09:540:09:59

Yo, so sunshine don't compare on darkness

0:09:590:10:02

Rain can go away on the British days

0:10:020:10:05

That we say are a different day from yesterday...

0:10:050:10:08

I don't like darkness, it's not my vibe

0:10:080:10:11

I'm all about rain, that's why I go outside...

0:10:110:10:15

'Yeah, I might not be destined to become a rap star

0:10:150:10:19

'but it was a different story when Jordan and Harley were here.

0:10:190:10:23

'They clearly had real musical talent.'

0:10:230:10:25

# I said I'm living in a lost generation... #

0:10:250:10:29

Have two Ambo points for rapping from a young age.

0:10:290:10:33

# I've got my heart I found my soul... #

0:10:340:10:38

When the boys turned 16 they got a spot in the fametastic Brit School,

0:10:380:10:42

where the likes of Adele, Jessie J and Leona Lewis attended.

0:10:420:10:46

They were bound for success, right?

0:10:460:10:49

Well, not quite.

0:10:490:10:50

Jordan got a job flipping burgers

0:10:500:10:53

and Harley went back to school right here to work teaching drama.

0:10:530:10:58

'And I'm going to get the low-down

0:10:580:10:59

'from some actual kids that Harley used to teach.'

0:10:590:11:02

# Check the rhyme and rhythm It's nice and different

0:11:020:11:04

# Plus it's bright and brilliant Kind of how I like my women... #

0:11:040:11:07

Guys, I am so jealous.

0:11:070:11:10

-Harley was your teacher. What was he like?

-He was really funny.

0:11:100:11:13

-Was he funny?

-Yeah, he was. Quite a funny sense of humour.

0:11:130:11:17

In what way? Was he busting out jokes?

0:11:170:11:19

Was he just getting involved with everyone?

0:11:190:11:21

He was a lot like he is as you see him on TV.

0:11:210:11:23

No disappointments there. He's just really helpful.

0:11:230:11:26

He'd help you if you needed help and he'd always make it fun.

0:11:260:11:29

What is the kind of things he'd do with you guys in class?

0:11:290:11:32

Well, like a lot of the games we're doing now, that kind of stuff.

0:11:320:11:35

Directing pieces that we would be working on.

0:11:350:11:38

Anything that you do in drama, he would just help you with it.

0:11:380:11:42

Wow, I wish Harry had been a teacher at my school.

0:11:420:11:45

That's way cool!

0:11:450:11:47

# Let's skip to the good bit... #

0:11:470:11:49

Alongside their jobs,

0:11:490:11:51

Jordan and Harley were both concentrating on their music

0:11:510:11:54

and decided to join forces to form Rizzle Kicks.

0:11:540:11:58

# Yes, Rizzle Kicks, dagnabbit. #

0:11:580:12:02

They used to rap over existing tracks by people like Lily Allen

0:12:030:12:07

and the Arctic Monkeys and then post them online.

0:12:070:12:10

Jordan and Harley attracted the attention of record labels

0:12:100:12:14

and, in November 2010, they signed with Universal Records

0:12:140:12:17

and this song hit the big time.

0:12:170:12:19

# Yeah, yeah, get down with the trumpets... #

0:12:190:12:21

# Let's get down with the trumpets

0:12:210:12:24

# Yeah, yeah, let's get down with trumpets

0:12:240:12:26

# Yeah, yeah, let's get down with trumpets... #

0:12:260:12:29

With this track, Down With The Trumpets,

0:12:290:12:31

Rizzle Kicks had exploded onto the UK music scene.

0:12:310:12:35

And they were like nothing else around at the time.

0:12:350:12:38

They were here to stay.

0:12:380:12:40

Have three Ambo points for finally making it to the big time.

0:12:400:12:43

So, let's have a look at the scores after Round One.

0:12:440:12:48

Both Little Minx and Rizzle Kicks have some great musical talent

0:12:500:12:53

but Little Mix having the fastest selling single

0:12:530:12:56

of 2011 have put them one point ahead.

0:12:560:13:00

If you don't agree with the result, that's OK.

0:13:000:13:02

Hop online to the CBBC website and have your say.

0:13:020:13:06

Now that we know how our stars made it,

0:13:070:13:10

let's check out how hard they've been working since then.

0:13:100:13:14

It's time for Round Two.

0:13:140:13:16

Round two, Pop Success.

0:13:200:13:23

This is all about what our stars have been up to

0:13:230:13:26

to make sure they stay at the top of the charts.

0:13:260:13:28

First up, Little Mix.

0:13:280:13:30

# Ain't got no time for what you think can be described as love... #

0:13:300:13:35

We all know just because you win a music talent show doesn't

0:13:350:13:38

necessarily mean you're going to make it big in the music industry,

0:13:380:13:41

but that's definitely not the case for Little Mix.

0:13:410:13:44

Not only have they dominated the UK

0:13:440:13:47

but they've also made it big right here in the USA.

0:13:470:13:52

They're the first British girl group to break the American top five

0:13:520:13:55

with their debut album, DNA.

0:13:550:13:57

And for it British girl group to crack America is no mean feat.

0:13:590:14:03

It takes a lot of hard work.

0:14:030:14:05

What you have to do with America is you have to go over there

0:14:070:14:09

and you have to spend time there.

0:14:090:14:11

They've travelled around, gone to all the radio stations over America.

0:14:110:14:16

They spent months there promoting themselves.

0:14:160:14:19

But to see the album go to number one,

0:14:190:14:22

I mean, the girls were just overwhelmed by that. It was amazing.

0:14:220:14:26

Making it big in the USA just shows how talented

0:14:270:14:31

and hard-working our Little Mix are.

0:14:310:14:33

Take three all-American Ambo points for that one.

0:14:330:14:37

But despite all the success, it's not always glam for the girls.

0:14:380:14:42

Sometimes Perrie and Jade drive back up to the north-east together

0:14:420:14:46

on the weekend to visit their families. Sounds fun, right?

0:14:460:14:50

Well, it's not always plain sailing.

0:14:500:14:54

The story goes that, on one such weekend,

0:14:540:14:56

something really funny went down

0:14:560:14:57

and, of course, there's no video footage

0:14:570:15:00

but I can help us out with that.

0:15:000:15:02

"Oh, Per, I'm having so much fun

0:15:030:15:05

"just driving around with you on the weekend, pet.

0:15:050:15:09

"She's asleep. We need more petrol. Perfect, petrol station.

0:15:090:15:14

"While she's asleep I might go and grab some choccies

0:15:140:15:17

"then I won't even have to share them with her. OK."

0:15:170:15:20

"Oh, fuel station. I'm busting.

0:15:200:15:22

"I might quickly go to the toilet."

0:15:220:15:26

"Hey, Per, I got some... Oh, she's asleep in the back.

0:15:260:15:29

"I don't want to wake her up.

0:15:290:15:31

"I'll just eat them and drive really quietly."

0:15:310:15:34

"That feels so much better after going to the toilet.

0:15:360:15:39

"Jade? Jade?

0:15:390:15:41

"Aaah!"

0:15:410:15:44

And it gets worse.

0:15:460:15:48

Apparently Jade took three hours

0:15:480:15:50

to realise Perrie wasn't in the back seat,

0:15:500:15:52

so she was stranded at the fuel station for six hours.

0:15:520:15:55

I can't believe they're still talking to each other.

0:15:550:15:59

I'm not quite sure that's how it happened but it's a good story.

0:15:590:16:03

However, ditching your friend at a service station is not cool, Jade.

0:16:030:16:07

I'm going to take off one Ambo point, just because I can.

0:16:070:16:11

# Better watch it, Rizzle Kicks, ha

0:16:130:16:16

What! I'm last on the heaven list

0:16:160:16:18

# Cos I couldn't give a rass what angelic is... #

0:16:180:16:20

Jordan and Harley have been working pretty hard

0:16:200:16:22

since they hit the big time.

0:16:220:16:24

They write all their songs and it wasn't long

0:16:240:16:26

before they were in high demand from the pop glitterati.

0:16:260:16:28

In fact, their first UK number one was when they featured

0:16:280:16:31

on Olly Murs' hit summer single, # Heart skips, skips a beat. #

0:16:310:16:36

# So come on spin me around now

0:16:370:16:39

# I don't want to go home... #

0:16:390:16:41

That's right. It was August 2011

0:16:410:16:44

and the Rizzle Kicks' collaboration with Olly Murs

0:16:440:16:47

shot straight in to the number one spot in the charts.

0:16:470:16:51

# And when you hold me like this,

0:16:510:16:53

# That's when my heart skips, skips a beat... #

0:16:530:16:56

The collaboration with Olly Murs was a real risk for both parties

0:16:560:16:59

but I think it really paid off.

0:16:590:17:01

I think a lot of Olly Murs's audience got exposed to Rizzle Kicks

0:17:010:17:05

and saw how good those guys are,

0:17:050:17:07

so they gained more of a fan base from that.

0:17:070:17:09

Similarly, I think there were a few Rizzle Kicks fans who said,

0:17:090:17:13

"You know what, he's actually quite a good singer.

0:17:130:17:15

"Let me go and see what else he might have."

0:17:150:17:18

# So spin me around now I don't want to go home... #

0:17:180:17:21

I love that summer tune.

0:17:210:17:24

Have a couple of Ambo points for some excellent collaborating

0:17:240:17:27

and chart-topping action.

0:17:270:17:29

It's not just Rizzle Kicks who are throwing out some awesome tracks.

0:17:290:17:34

Early in 2014 Little Mix released the official song

0:17:360:17:40

for their charity Sport Relief, called Word Up.

0:17:400:17:43

# Word up Everybody say

0:17:430:17:47

# When you hear the call you've got to get it under way... #

0:17:470:17:51

When Sport Relief approached the girls about doing

0:17:510:17:54

a song for the charity, the girls were totally made up.

0:17:540:17:57

That is what they... They really wanted to do it.

0:17:570:18:00

They flew over and saw a Sport Relief project,

0:18:030:18:06

which they said was an amazing experience for them,

0:18:060:18:09

and you can see how emotional it was for them.

0:18:090:18:12

That's why they became so passionate about wanting

0:18:120:18:14

to do the Sport Relief single and make it as successful

0:18:140:18:17

and make as much money for the charity as they possibly could.

0:18:170:18:19

You can have three Ambo points for singing for such a good cause

0:18:190:18:24

and another Ambo point for releasing another top tune.

0:18:240:18:28

But when it comes to top tunes...

0:18:290:18:32

..Rizzle Kicks have got some killer tracks.

0:18:340:18:37

The best thing about Rizzle Kicks songs is that it's them.

0:18:370:18:41

You know, it's their thoughts, their feelings.

0:18:410:18:43

They're not afraid to say anything slightly controversial.

0:18:430:18:46

# Jeremy Kyle got the nation laughing at other people's expense

0:18:460:18:49

# Somebody tell that guy that we hate him, too

0:18:490:18:52

# We are not his friends... #

0:18:520:18:54

They're just willing to be themselves.

0:18:540:18:56

They're an amalgamation of all their influences,

0:18:560:18:59

which is perfect because they really represent modern Britain.

0:18:590:19:03

# Hashtag trend

0:19:030:19:04

# Oi, big brother's in the house now, yeah... #

0:19:040:19:07

They've got so much energy. When you hear one of their songs,

0:19:070:19:09

you just want to get up and dance along to it.

0:19:090:19:12

# I wanna dance, I wanna have fun

0:19:120:19:14

# Let me feel the music, yeah

0:19:140:19:15

# I hope you realise how dumb you sound

0:19:150:19:18

# When you call us stupid... #

0:19:180:19:19

It's infectious, it's happy, it's cool.

0:19:190:19:22

They're really, really talented guys

0:19:220:19:24

and their music just makes everybody smile.

0:19:240:19:27

# I want you to feel useless, baby

0:19:270:19:29

# That's right, every bad boy should... #

0:19:290:19:31

But it's not just their music that's making people smile.

0:19:310:19:34

They also invented their own dance for their song Mama Do the Hump,

0:19:340:19:37

and it went viral.

0:19:370:19:39

# Mama, do the hump # Mama, do the hump hump

0:19:390:19:41

# Mama, won't you please let me do the hump hump?

0:19:410:19:43

# Mama, do the hump, Mama, do the hump hump

0:19:430:19:46

# Mama, won't you please let me do the hump hump? #

0:19:460:19:48

Not only was it a massive track,

0:19:480:19:50

getting nearly 13 million hits on YouTube,

0:19:500:19:53

but the dance move was such a hit

0:19:530:19:55

that people up and down the country were busting their humps.

0:19:550:19:58

# Yo, it's been a long week

0:19:580:20:00

# How I've got this much energy is beyond me

0:20:000:20:03

# I just want all of these girls to be on me

0:20:030:20:05

# And maybe even one of them could be Beyonce... #

0:20:050:20:08

Some people can do the hump better than others,

0:20:080:20:10

but you can't beat a bit of a boogie.

0:20:100:20:12

Have three Ambo points for creating a killer dance.

0:20:120:20:16

# Mama, do the hump Mama, do the hump hump

0:20:170:20:20

# Mama, won't you please let me do the hump hump? #

0:20:200:20:22

But the points don't stop there.

0:20:220:20:24

They filmed this video at Jordan's auntie's house.

0:20:240:20:27

# Yo, coming in with the sound fresher than cut grass

0:20:270:20:30

# Fun starts

0:20:300:20:31

# Second that we enter if you must ask... #

0:20:310:20:33

And that's his mum lip-syncing the words to the song.

0:20:330:20:36

That is one awesome idea for a music video, boys.

0:20:380:20:41

Have two Ambo points

0:20:410:20:43

for keeping it in the family.

0:20:430:20:45

# Ain't over till a fat boy slims, Mama... #

0:20:450:20:47

So, how has all this awesomeness affected their sales?

0:20:470:20:51

# Do the hump. #

0:20:530:20:55

# It's in his DNA

0:20:550:20:56

# D-D-D-DNA... #

0:20:560:20:58

Well, Little Mix have racked up

0:20:580:21:00

around 2.7 million record sales.

0:21:000:21:03

That's pretty good!

0:21:030:21:04

Take an Ambo point for that.

0:21:040:21:07

But, Rizzle Kicks have sold

0:21:070:21:09

around 3 million records.

0:21:090:21:10

It's close, but Rizzle Kicks have just got the edge.

0:21:130:21:16

That's two Ambo points to them.

0:21:160:21:19

# That I can do nothing

0:21:190:21:20

# But to despise you, girl... #

0:21:200:21:22

Let's have a look at the scores.

0:21:220:21:24

Both acts have had some stomping success,

0:21:260:21:29

but Rizzle Kicks are just in the lead

0:21:290:21:31

at the end of Round Two.

0:21:310:21:32

If you've got something to say about this,

0:21:320:21:35

then get on that CBBC website.

0:21:350:21:37

Well, it's all to play for

0:21:370:21:39

going into the final round.

0:21:390:21:42

We've seen our stars' pop potential and how hard they've worked at it.

0:21:420:21:46

But, now that they've reached the dizzy heights of superstardom,

0:21:460:21:49

let's see how glamorously outrageous they've become.

0:21:490:21:52

Round Three, what you got?

0:21:520:21:54

Round Three, Pop Style.

0:21:570:22:00

This is all about our celebrities' lives - clothes, cars,

0:22:000:22:04

pets or whatever else they splash their cash on.

0:22:040:22:07

It must be amazing to be a pop star.

0:22:090:22:10

You get people who are paid to make you look good.

0:22:100:22:13

And, in my mind, no-one looks better than Little Mix.

0:22:130:22:16

# Mama told me not to waste my life

0:22:190:22:22

# She said spread your wings, my little butterfly... #

0:22:220:22:26

Little Mix have a phenomenal style,

0:22:260:22:29

but it doesn't happen by accident.

0:22:290:22:31

No! To find out how they rock their look,

0:22:310:22:35

I'm going to chat to X Factor stylist Frank Strachan.

0:22:350:22:39

Now, Frank, Little Mix were four individual girls

0:22:390:22:42

and then they got put together on X Factor.

0:22:420:22:44

How does that work in terms of style?

0:22:440:22:46

I think, with any band that comes into X Factor,

0:22:460:22:49

they've got a bit of a style already.

0:22:490:22:51

But, with Little Mix, they got put together for the show.

0:22:510:22:53

So I think, as a viewer, it was really interesting to seeing how

0:22:530:22:56

they developed across the series, because you could really see

0:22:560:22:59

a band beginning to form and making sense.

0:22:590:23:02

And their style really helped to do that.

0:23:020:23:05

# She said spread your wings my little butterfly... #

0:23:050:23:08

How much of being in a band is being allowed to be yourself

0:23:080:23:12

and wearing what you want to wear, or going with the band image?

0:23:120:23:15

I always think it is important to look like

0:23:150:23:18

-you're going to the same party.

-That's a good way to look at it.

0:23:180:23:20

So someone shouldn't be overly dressed up.

0:23:200:23:22

Someone shouldn't look too casual.

0:23:220:23:24

But it doesn't have to be, you know,

0:23:240:23:26

everyone in pink or everyone in black and white.

0:23:260:23:28

It's quite nice, usually, if there's a bit more personality.

0:23:280:23:31

# These wings are made to fly... #

0:23:310:23:35

With Little Mix, you can associate with different members of the band.

0:23:360:23:39

I think that helps to create more of their magic

0:23:390:23:43

if one of them is slightly more sporty

0:23:430:23:47

or one of them dresses a little bit more elegantly.

0:23:470:23:50

It means that the audience can associate

0:23:500:23:53

and dress like the different girls, rather than thinking,

0:23:530:23:56

"Oh, they're not a band for me,

0:23:560:23:57

"because I wouldn't dress like that."

0:23:570:23:59

Because there is probably somebody in the band that would.

0:23:590:24:02

# No matter what you say, it won't hurt me... #

0:24:020:24:04

Sound's amazing, I am ready to go get my Little Mix on.

0:24:040:24:07

Come here, bring it in.

0:24:070:24:09

# These wings are made to fly... #

0:24:090:24:13

Hands down, Little Mix have totally nailed some awesome fashion sense.

0:24:130:24:18

Have four Ambo points

0:24:180:24:20

for a trendsetting style.

0:24:200:24:22

# Don't matter if I fall from the sky

0:24:220:24:26

# These wings are made to fly. #

0:24:260:24:29

# Stop with the chit chit Stop with the chatter

0:24:290:24:32

# RK come through to deal with the matter... #

0:24:320:24:34

And, I think it's fair to say, that when it comes to Rizzle Kicks,

0:24:340:24:37

they have a slightly more laid-back approach to fashion.

0:24:370:24:40

# Then punch the air

0:24:400:24:42

# We got a bag of ideas never unprepared

0:24:420:24:44

-# To just stop with the chit chit

-# Stop with the chit chit

0:24:440:24:46

# Stop with the chit chit chatter... #

0:24:460:24:48

Rizzle Kicks never look like they've been styled.

0:24:480:24:50

They look like they've crawled out of bed most of the time.

0:24:500:24:53

Really helps their image.

0:24:530:24:54

They do seem that they're quite headstrong

0:24:540:24:56

and you have no doubt that they know what they want to wear,

0:24:560:24:59

as well, and nobody is telling them what to do.

0:24:590:25:01

And I think that is incredibly appealing.

0:25:010:25:03

I imagine them, like, that's how they went to school,

0:25:040:25:08

or hung out after school or college, when making their music.

0:25:080:25:12

-They're skater boy kind of like fashion.

-Yeah.

0:25:120:25:14

-A little bit like Pharrell.

-Yeah.

-But not as much money.

0:25:140:25:17

-Not as rich.

-Yeah, and without the hat.

0:25:170:25:19

Playing it cool, guys!

0:25:200:25:22

You can take two Ambo points for that totally laid-back look.

0:25:220:25:26

And it's not just fashion they're chilled out about.

0:25:260:25:29

It's also their choice in beverages.

0:25:290:25:32

Rizzle Kicks are one of the hottest groups in the UK.

0:25:320:25:35

So what do they like to drink? Orange juice, coconut water,

0:25:350:25:38

green superfood smoothies, maybe a chai latte? Apparently not.

0:25:380:25:42

They love nothing more than a good old-fashioned cup of tea!

0:25:420:25:47

It's not very showbiz.

0:25:470:25:48

But word on the street is that Jordan and Harley

0:25:480:25:51

go wild for a cup of the good stuff.

0:25:510:25:53

You and me both, boys. I love tea.

0:25:570:25:59

Have another Ambo point for keeping it real.

0:25:590:26:02

Little Mix on the other hand are going for a slightly more

0:26:060:26:09

serious style with some off-the-hook animal impersonations.

0:26:090:26:12

You might've seen this clip online

0:26:130:26:15

but Perrie does a hilarious impression of a goat.

0:26:150:26:18

Let's check it out.

0:26:180:26:20

SHE MIMICS A GOAT

0:26:210:26:25

Thank you!

0:26:250:26:26

Have two "goatally" amazing

0:26:260:26:28

Ambo points for a pretty strange hidden talent.

0:26:280:26:31

And this little bit of weirdness takes us to the end of Round Three.

0:26:310:26:35

We're at the end of Pop Slam and it's been heaps of fun.

0:26:390:26:42

But we've still got this bad boy to give away.

0:26:420:26:45

So who has won the Ambo?

0:26:450:26:46

Will it be the Rizzle Kicks or Little Mix?

0:26:460:26:49

Ohhhh! Let's look back at what we've learned.

0:26:490:26:52

What a Pop Slam it's been.

0:26:520:26:54

Little Mix and Rizzle Kicks have proved themselves to be

0:26:540:26:58

totally awesome but very different popstars,

0:26:580:27:01

both having huge success and super cool style.

0:27:010:27:05

It really is anyone's game.

0:27:050:27:07

Well, ladies and gentlemen,

0:27:070:27:09

it's the moment we've all been waiting for.

0:27:090:27:12

The points have been counted and independently verified. By me.

0:27:120:27:15

And the winner of the Ambo is...

0:27:150:27:18

It's Little Mix! Sorry, guys.

0:27:260:27:28

Girls, get in here. I am so proud of you!

0:27:290:27:32

Let's take a look at some more of you in action.

0:27:320:27:34

# Let me hear you say it

0:27:340:27:35

# Ladies all across the world

0:27:350:27:36

# Listen up, we're looking for recruits

0:27:360:27:39

# If you're with me, let me see your hands... #

0:27:390:27:42

Hey, Jade, it's Amber. I'm just going to try a five-way call

0:27:420:27:45

between you me and the girls. Two secs.

0:27:450:27:47

OK, you still there?
