About Jesy Nelson

Jessica Louise Nelson (born 14 June 1991) is an English singer, who rose to prominence as a member of the British girl group, Little Mix . In 2019, Nelson presented a BBC Three documentary based on her experiences with body image and online bullying titled Jesy Nelson: Odd One Out, which won the Factual Entertainment Award at the 25th National Television Awards. In December 2020, she left the group and later in 2021 signed to Polydor Records as a solo artist. On 8 October 2021, she released her debut solo single 'Boyz' with rapper Nicki Minaj . It debuted and peaked at #4 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming the highest-charting song by a Little Mix-alumna. It debuted at #13 on the US Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles (Billboard) chart, the only Little Mix solo single to chart on Billboard so far. It received negative reviews from critics, with the music video sparking controversy due to allegations of blackfishing and cultural appropriation. In 2023, she released "Bad Thing" after the controversy of "Boyz" died down. It flopped completely, failing to reach the UK Singles Chart Top 100.
