One Direction Tours, Songs & News Update 2015: Little Mix Disses Harry Styles, Group Would 'Swipe Left' Him on Tinder [Watch]
Little Mix made it crystal clear that it is not attracted to One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles over the weekend.
The English girl group appeared on Capital FM on May 1 to promote its upcoming performance at this year's Summertime Ball.
The "Move" singers played a game based on popular dating app Tinder, in which the members were asked what direction (left or right) the group would swipe on a particular celebrity.
While all of the singer agreed they would undoubtedly swipe right for Ne-Yo and Jason Derulo, the women expressed no interest in Styles. Perrie Edwards, who is engaged to former 1D member Zayn Malik, immediately responded that she would "swipe left."
Bandmate Leigh-Anne Pinnock also gave a "no," adding, "I'm going to take Taylor's advice and go left."
Even after the host explained that Celebrity Tinder was just hypothetical, Edwards insisted she would "swipe left," saying, "I've got to, yeah."
Ever since the "DNA" hitmakers' radio appearance, One Direction's furious fans have expressed their outrage on Twitter.
Anyone would swipe right for Harry in a heartbeat. I'm honestly concerned about Little Mix's mental health if they would swipe left

However, according to HollywoodLife.com, Little Mix "didn't mean any harm." A source claimed that the band only gave such answers because they think "Harry's a bit of a ladies man and a player," which makes him "pretty unattractive and impossible to date."
"They love him really," the source added, "but in the context of that interview, they just believe he isn't very dateable."
