Little Mix are taking fans behind the scenes of their ‘Confetti’ music video.

Directed by Samuel Douek, the fun-filled clip for the Saweetie assisted jam sees the trio transform into their male counterparts before staging a seismic dance-off.

Naturally, it meant there was ample prosthetic work and slick choreography too.

Viewers will also have noted cameos from RuPaul’s Drag Race UK stars Tayce and Bimini Bon Boulash.

Now, the masses can see how the vid – which was shot while members Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards were pregnant – all came together.

After thrilling fans with her comeback single, ‘Let Me Reintroduce Myself,’ music superstar Gwen Stefani quickly introduced fans to its follow-up – the Saweetie-assisted ‘Slow Clap.’

And while initial excitement around the March 11-released track suggested it would bring just the hype needed to build anticipation for her yet-titled, forthcoming fourth studio album, two months later the song is still earning…well…a slow clap from music lovers.

In an effort to help it crack into the Hot 100 for the first time, Stefani ignited a promo blitz that saw her give the tune the live treatment on the likes of ‘Late Night with Seth Meyers’ and other high profile stops (as we reported here).  Now, she’s taking fans behind the scenes of the energetic tune’s Sophie Muller-directed music video.

The same week rising rapstress Mulatto earned her first Hot 100 placement with ‘B*tch from Da Souf’ was the same week she learned the title had been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Boasting a fiery original version, the Bankroll Got It-produced song was given the ultimate boost once established femcees Trina and Saweetie added their spicy additions on its remix – ultimately helping the cut become Big Latto’s breakout hit.

Now, just 7 months ‘Souf’ saw its sales head north in response to growing buzz from its parent album – ‘Queen of Da Souf’ (click here to stream) – it’s logged a career milestone for its creator.

Diehard fans of Jazmine Sullivan are well versed with her collection of releases over the past ten years, with many of them lauding work found aboard her sophomore and junior albums – ‘Love Me Back’ and ‘Reality Show’ – as some of the best R&B offerings of the century.

But while the genre’s radio and airplay Billboard charts have featured some of her more critically acclaimed offerings over the same time period (i.e. ‘Let It Burn,’ ‘Forever Don’t Last,’ ’10 Seconds,’ etc.), Pop charts have largely ignored the GRAMMY nominee.

After a decade long absence, the refreshed Hot 100 reveals that neglect has come to an end thanks to tunes found aboard her latest body of work, the January 8-released ‘Heaux Tales’ (click here to stream).
