Those Little Mix ladies can be quite the mean girls—but it's only in jest.

During an interview with Australia's Kyle & Jackie O Show, Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, Jesy Nelson and Leigh-Anne Pinnock were asked what they thought about the boys of One Direction dropping their upcoming album on the same day as Justin Bieber.

You might think things got awkward at the mention of 1D because Perrie's former fiancé Zayn Malik is an ex-member of the group, but that wasn't the issue. Instead, Jade was simply tired of being asked about the Biebs! 

"To be honest, I'm sick of talking about it...just the whole Justin Bieber thing," she said exasperatedly.

Perrie tried to explain that Jade in particular has been asked about Justin quite often in recent interviews, noting, "It's a bit of a touchy subject."

"It's actually really pissed us off," Jade offered.

Kyle and Jackie O appeared to be quite confused. "We're here to promote our single," said Jesy. "We don't really want to talk about Justin Bieber..."

"We wanna like talk about our music, and then we get asked about him all the time," said Jade. "What's the point? What's the point? What's your point?"

The fuss continued on for a moment before Jade and Jesy stormed out of the room, leaving Jackie O in tears.

Awkward...yes, quite awkward..

But like we said, the Little Mix ladies are only mean girls in jest. To see what we mean, watch the KIIS 106.5 clip above from the Kyle & Jackie 0 Show!

Not to make things awkward again, but watch the video below to see what happens when you ask One Direction about the band's future without Zayn Malik!
