Leigh-Anne Pinnock Promotes Her Solo Music With British Vogue
Leigh-Anne Pinnock is featured in a new article for British Vogue. The singer sat down with the magazine to promote her new single, “DON”T SAY LOVE”. Highlights from her interview are below.
On feeling isolated while out making music with Little Mix: “The pop industry is very white, we did have a predominately white fan base. It took me so long to understand why I was feeling so undervalued. I just blamed myself. My family would be like, ‘Oh, Leigh, you’re getting the same money. It’s fine.’ I just couldn’t accept that.”
On the album shedding light on her relationship with Andre Gray: “Things aren’t perfect, and I get a bit deep with that. It puts it all into perspective and changes you. Things don’t phase me as much, in a good way. Now I feel so resilient.”
On dreams for her solo career: “I just want to make music that people are inspired by and people are empowered by and to continue to use my voice and platform. Because I just think, why am I here otherwise? I would love to have my own tour. I don’t care if it’s two people in the audience – knowing that they are there because they love and value me and love what I do, I will be happy with that. I’m excited to have my babies there as well to witness it. They’ll be at an age where they understand it. That’ll set me right off.”
