Perrie Louise Edwards, born on July 10, 1993, is an English singer-songwriter. She’s a member of British three-piece girl group Little Mix along with Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall. The group was formed on the eighth series of The X Factor in 2011, and became the first group to win the competition and have since sold over 50 million records worldwide, making them one of the highest selling girl groups of all time.

Her first audition on The X Factor was “You Oughta Know” by Alanis Morissette. Edwards and Jesy Nelson were put in a group called Faux Pas while Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock were put in a group named Orion. Both groups, however, failed to progress. Later, a decision was made to bring back the four to form the four-piece group Rhythmix, and they progressed to judges’ houses. They eventually reached the live shows and were mentored by Tulisa Contostavlos. On 28 October 2011, it was announced that the group’s new name would be Little Mix. On 11 December 2011, Little Mix were announced as the winners, the first group to win the programme.

Edwards has released six albums with the group, DNA (2012), Salute (2013), Get Weird (2015), Glory Days (2016), LM5 (2018) and Confetti (2020). In 2019, she became the new face for the Italian brand Superga and released her first designed collection of shoes. In 2020, Edwards become the first female ambassador for the brand “Supreme Nutrition”. Later that year, Edwards was revealed as the new face of Nando’s, a Portuguese-African food franchise.
