JLS perform together for the first time in seven years on BBC’s The One Show

The club is alive… with the sound of unnecessary pop group reunions.

Earlier this week, JLS announced that they were getting back together.

Former X Factor contestants Aston, Marvin, JB, and Oritsé called quits on their group-based singing careers back in 2013, much to the dismay of many people who didn’t want their last hit to be a The Sound of Music ripoff.

Nevertheless, the lads are back and eager to impress – as per their performance on BBC’s The One Show this evening.

Taking to the stage to sing ‘Everybody In Love,’ they chatted all about why 2020 felt like the right time to get back together.

“It has been mad out of the four of us I’ve definitely not danced in seven years, I was apprehensive, getting into the studio on Monday was strange,” said Marvin.

“I started conversations four years ago, we miss each other we are family.

“Last year we had conversations again and we thought let’s get back on the road and the response has been overwhelming.”

This performance comes after JB said that a tour was looking pretty likely to mark 10 years since the band released their first album off the back of The X Factor.

“This year is a big year for us: our 10 year anniversary since JLS’s debut album,” he said. 

“We are all very much in touch, we’re still brothers. We met up recently, a few weeks back, and we’ve always said when the time’s right we could do something.”

“So a reunion… never say never.”

JLS’s Beat Again tour will be taking to the UK this November and December.
