Little Mix were flying high as they performed on The X Factor tour over the weekend, but there was something a little familiar going on as the foursome took to the famous Wembley stage.
The group decided to pay the biggest compliment to their girlband predecessors Girls Aloud during their set, outright copying their pop rivals.
The X Factor winners were hoisted up into the air to travel above the heads of the crowd below during their set - just as Girls Aloud had done on their Out Of Control tour.
What is that they say? Imitation is the biggest form of flattery?
But the thousands of screaming fans didn't seem to notice their copycat behaviour though as they belted out a cover of Katy Perry's hit E.T. - which they sang during their time on the talent show.
And while they may be flying high for now, Little Mix will have their girlband throne contested next year, as the mighty GA are set to reunite to celebrate their tenth anniversary.
Meanwhile, back on The X Factor tour, it wasn't just Little Mix who were causing a stir with their on-stage antics.
Kitty Brucknell was back to her mad-cap ways, living up to her name as she took to the stage in a sparkly basque emblazoned with a cat.

It was a big weekend for Little Mix this weekend. Winning the X Factor, being considered for the Olympics opening ceremony... I just hope that they are having the chance to stop and take stock a little, to smell the roses, to enjoy being at the centre of such an incredible experience because it may be over all too soon...
Hopefully by now you might have heard of a little charity I work for called Rhythmix. Maybe you know us for all the great work we've done over 12 years working with vulnerable young people across the south east of England. Possibly you've heard about the very important work we do with young people with severe learning or physical disabilities. I'm joking of course. You know us from such informative headlines as 'Charity sues X Factor over name of girl band'.
they were lifted up different, little mix are soley on wires whereas girls aloud were on a platform, so technically they're not copying...
its like saying any artist who is lifted above the audience is copying each other :/
Faye3103: they were lifted up different, little mix are soley on
so not only are X-factor winners covering songs they're also covering concert styles as well.... here's to the death of originality. Why not try getting into this proper band who recently played the O2 at Noel Gallaghers' after-show party: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rd8oZOS8TJI
