Perrie Edwards flashes bum during outfit mishap in behind-the-scenes filming disaster

Little Mix's Perrie Edwards has shown her fans that being on set filming a music video is not always smooth sailing.

The Black Magic hitmaker, 27, took to her Instagram Story to give her loyal fans a glimpse at never-before-seen outtakes captured when she and her bandmates filmed the music video for their single Sweet Melody.

The South Shields beauty - who rose to fame on The X Factor in 2011 with Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall - can be seen in the smouldering music video modelling a tiny lack bralet paired teamed with baggy black trousers covered in long tassels.

Revealing that the outfit she was wearing became a hindrance as she tried to perform the sexy dance routine choreographed for the shoot, she shared a snippet of footage in which she did a solo piece to camera before falling to the floor as part of the dance.

Perrie typed atop of the clip: "When you tryna look sexy but the tassels on your pants have other plans…. "

In the next post, she pointed out that her feet got tangled up in the strips of material hanging off the eye-catching legwear.

The songstress then shared that more mishaps occurred as she uploaded a clip that showed her giving it her all as she performed an intricate dance break with a male dancer.

As the duo embraced, near the end of the section, Perrie's pert bottom was partially exposed as her trousers were accidentally tugged down by her partner.

Seeing the funny side, Perrie typed: "It wasn’t all smooth takes on set.

"When ya (peach emoji) want to make an appearance (laughing face emoji)."

Later on, Perrie shared a heartfelt message to her fans on social media and explained that she is struggling amid England being in lockdown.

She shared a black screen with white text and said she missed being active and being on stage.

The message read: "Feeling like utter s**t wishing I had @daniellepeazer to come and drag me out of bed on a morning. All I do is eat atm. I wanna get back on it but canttttttttt (wincing emoji) I have zero motivation!

"I miss being active. I miss working out with Danielle and Ellie. I miss dancing, I miss being on stage. I miss the fans. F**k sakes man."

Late last year, Perrie's bandmate Jesy made waves when she announced that she was leaving Little Mix - a decision supported by Leigh-Anne, Perrie and Jade Thirlwall, who'll continue as a three.
