The diva, who’s also the chosen one to record the upcoming James Bond theme, is breaking every barrier.

In 2011, Little Mix became the first group to win the UK TV competition X Factor, managing to out-do the 3rd position One Direction registered one year earlier.

Since then, the 4-members set has been building a large discography with several hit singles. This led various media and fans to claim that they belong to the bestselling girl groups of all-time.

They have never got a top 50 single in markets like Germany and France though, so this makes us wonder how valid are these affirmations?
