Little Mix's Perrie Edwards in tears as she delivers special shout out to Newcastle

Little Mix star Perrie Edwards shed a tear as she delivered a special shout out to her home crowd in Newcastle on Friday night.

After it was significantly delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the group’s Confetti tour finally kicked off in Belfast last weekend, before heading to Dublin. Stop number three for Perrie and bandmates Jade Thirlwall and Leigh-Anne Pinnock was the Utilita Arena in Newcastle, with the venue being a particularly poignant one for South Shields singers Perrie and Jade.

Performing on home turf for the first time in well over two years, the last occasion being Little Mix's LM5 tour in 2019, the local lasses looked very moved at being back on Tyneside and Perrie shed a tear as she spoke to the crowd about why it was such a special moment for her.
