When does Little Mix The Search start?
Little Mix The Search is coming to BBC One in 2020 and will see multi-award winning group Little Mix create a brand new band and mentor up and coming singers.
The singers who make it into one of the new bands will have to live together, while they compete on the show.
They will work with Little Mix’s inner circle, including vocal coaches, songwriters, producers and stylists.
As well as working with all of the above, they will also be mentored by Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock.
Of the new show, Little Mix said: “We want to create lots of incredible groups who really gel. As we have been there and done it ourselves, we know what it takes to make a group successful, and will be there to mentor them every step of the way.
“We want solo artists to audition as well as groups and every type of genre is welcome too. It’s going to be really exciting and people can apply right now!”

Will Little Mix The Search have to compete with Simon Cowell’s revamped The X Factor?
The Sun’s Dan Wootton has revealed Simon Cowell is planning to launch his own girl band talent show to rival his former protégées.
He is axing The X Factor All Stars series he planned to launch on ITV in December to premiere a show called X Factor The Band.
Simon said: “This is what really happened. I was approached to co-produce that show last year by Little Mix’s management.
“I told them the problem was we have a conflict of interest because we are launching X Factor The Band in 2020. We were told their show was going to launch in 2021.”
He added: “Then we had the fallout and find out Little Mix were bringing their show forward. Was that intentional because we are doing our show? I have no idea.”
