The group is also widely recognized for its 2012 studio album entitled “DNA”, which peaked among the Top 10 on various albums charts in the UK as well as in the USA.
Have you ever wondered how much wealth these girls have accumulated so far? How rich Little Mix is?

Little Mix Net Worth $16.8 Million
All four members of Little Mix began their journey through “The X Factor” as individual contestants. After failing to make significant separate success, in October 2011 they were gathered together in a group named Rhythmix. However, due to a legal dispute with an eponymous charity organization, they later rebranded as Little Mix, and eventually became the first group in the eight-year-long history of the show in the UK to win “The X Factor” competition. Upon acquiring this prestigious accolade, the group signed a record deal with Simon Cowell’s Syco Music record label, and in 2012 their debut studio album entitled “DNA” was released, spawning hit singles such as “DNA”, “Wings” and “Change Your Life”. This initial success was followed by the release of custom made merchandise, including dolls, puzzles and various accessories under the Little Mix brand. All these ventures provided the basis for Little Mix’s members’ net worth.
Their second studio album “Salute” was released in November 2013, featuring hit singles such as “Move” and “Little Me”. In May 2015 Little Mix released its third album, entitled “Get Weird” with “Black Magic” as its lead single, which was followed by The Get Weird Tour in 2016, covering Europe, Asia as well as Australia. Some of the group’s latest releases include the 2016 studio album “Glory Days”, as well as undertaking The Glory Days Tour in 2017, which was followed by Summer Hits Tour 2018. So far the four-piece group has been honored with a variety of prestigious awards in the world of music, such as Brit Award for the single “Shout Out to My Ex”, two MTV Europe Music Awards, two Teen Choice Awards as well as with two Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women Awards. It is certain that all these accomplishments have helped Little Mix to dramatically increase the total of its net worth.
