Perrie Edwards

“Everything is harder for a woman in every kind of aspect and that's why we try to empower women with our music, our image and everything we stand for.”

“I think with the 'Get Weird' album, it was the hardest album we've ever made so we had no idea what sound we wanted to go for, we didn't really know what we wanted to write about... and so it took a lot of time.”

“I like vintage shops mainly, because then you can get one-of-a-kind pieces.”

“I'll get married when I'm bloody ready!”

“I shake my legs constantly when I'm sitting crossed legged.”

“The first thing women in the industry get asked about is boyfriends.”

“I was such a scared cling-on-to-my-mum's-leg kind of girl, even when I was 15, 16. If I was in McDonald's and I needed ketchup, I wouldn't go up and ask. I'd be too shy.”

“One thing we've had to do in our careers, which is hard, is to put on a brave face.”

“I've lost a lot of friends.”

“Is Pharrell Williams hotter than Justin Bieber? I don't think so.”

“If you could still see yourself living in a cardboard box with somebody with no money then that is love you know, it's what's important.”

“I'm not like 'Oh I am going to be so mobbed today and everyone is going to take my photo.' I don't see myself like that.”

“The best part about being in a group is having each other for support. The girls are like my sisters and always look out for me.”

“I remember being on a red carpet and they put the mic to us and asked 'are you feminists?' and we panicked. We were so terrified to speak back then.”

“I literally have a clearout every two months and I give all my clothes away to my little cousins and stuff. And they just buzz off it. If I was younger, and my cousin or sister was in Little Mix, and they gave me all their hand-me-downs, I'd be the happiest girl in the world.”

“You'd never think getting four random girls together would work, but it really did.”

“We wake up some days and feel like the most fierce people ever. But some days we'll be like: 'Oh my God, I'm so ugly.'”

“I definitely always wanted to be a singer and a performer. I think I got it from my parents because my dad's a singer and my mom's a singer, so it kind of runs in the family and I just thought it was normal.”

“We like to stay grounded and be normal people and not act like divas.”

“I love how strong we are, the strength women have is ridiculous. The things we can do are unreal.”
