Perrie Edwards inspires fans' body confidence
Little Mix have always been about inspiring fans to be happy in their own skin and confident in their bodies - as proved by Perrie Edwards' latest Instagram post, after she shared a photo of a scar on her torso.
Along with bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Jade Thirlwall and Jesy Nelson, Perrie has been on tour around the world with Little Mix's latest album 'Glory Days', before performing at the One Manchester gig on Sunday night in a bid to raise money for the victims of the terrorist attack that occurred on 22 May.

On Saturday, she shared a waist-up photo on Instagram - and not only did she look beautiful and slay the Insta game as always, but the scar on her torso was clearly visible.
Previously, Perrie has opened up about how self-conscious she feels about it, telling Now magazine: "My [biggest body-hang up] is my scar on my stomach. When I was little, my oesophagus was too small, so I had to get it operated on to help me eat properly. I had to have lots of operations, so that's why I don't want to show it."
And yet, by showing it off, Perrie has inspired so many Little Mix fans to be more confident in their own appearance, and was quickly praised for setting an awesome example for younger women with their own insecurities. Yaaaas Pezza.
